| BERWYN, Pa. & SAINT-CLOUD, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--IDS Scheer, the leading provider of solutions for business process
excellence, today announced a partnership agreement with Systar
(Euronext Paris: SAR) (ISIN: FR0000052854), the leading provider of
Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) solutions. Under the agreement, IDS
Scheer will embed Systar’s core technology to
provide customers with real-time business event monitoring. The new
offering, ARIS Process Event Monitor, will provide
companies with real-time monitoring to manage exceptions and risks
within business processes.
Today’s organizations are continually striving
for business agility. Automation of applications, transactions and
devices is playing a critical role, especially with the volume of
external and internal events related to the company’s
business processes. Customer expectations –
and the drive for efficiency – require
businesses to respond to events and initiate effective action in
real-time. Companies that adapt their business model to thrive in a
real-time environment, by embedding intelligence within business
processes, will realize significant competitive gains.
ARIS Process Event Monitor will provide current process-relevant
information and enable companies to react immediately to critical
events. Rule-based alerts, notifications and actions intelligently
identify critical situations based on automated tracking of on-going
processes fed by sophisticated adapters that capture, filter and
aggregate events.
IDS Scheer has extensive experience with business process monitoring,
evidenced by its ARIS Process Performance Manager (ARIS PPM) targeting
the middle-term analysis of as-is processes and optimization by
analyzing their structure. This will be complemented by the ARIS Process
Event Monitor with a focus on exception handling. This combination, used
in tandem with the other components of the ARIS platform, will enable
customers to manage their business from an operational to a strategic
level. IDS Scheer will also use this technology to address compliance
monitoring, controls automation and service-oriented architectures (SOA)
monitoring.
The partnership combines the might of two proven leaders in their
respective areas of expertise. IDS Scheer’s
ARIS Platform is the industry standard for BPM solutions based on
extensive process knowledge, and Systar was recently ranked by a leading
IT analyst firm as the only “strong positive”
vendor within the current MarketScope for Business Activity Monitoring
Platforms.
“With that innovation, we are opening up
opportunities to penetrate new market segments which is an essential
goal for IDS Scheer and its ambitious growth strategy,”
states Dr. Wolfram Jost, member of the board of IDS Scheer responsible
for product strategy and development. “The
control of exceptions within business processes will become key for
increasing customer satisfaction and managing risks. Customers will
profit from the combination of ARIS Process Event Monitor with the
existing ARIS Process Performance Manager to cope with the challenges of
the real-time world.”
“Systar recognizes IDS Scheer as a pioneer in
business process management and is happy to have them as an OEM partner,”
said Bertrand Bouhour, COO of Systar, Inc. “The
leading analysts agree that process optimization is realized most fully
when events are provided to the right people at the right time during
process execution. BAM helps companies achieve rapid innovation by
enabling them to detect events, filter them and trigger Business Process
Management (BPM) solutions. Systar's BAM offering, as part of the ARIS
Process Event Monitor, will provide customers with real-time information
that is actionable in formats that both the IT organization and the
Business organization can use to make decisions. We at Systar look
forward to working with IDS Scheer in providing this value-added
solution.”
