This IDC white paper studies two possibly conflicting trends related to the Business Process Automation (BPA) value proposition and the functional convergence of the BPM/Business Intelligence (BI) software markets. First, the research asks whether, in the long term, enterprises will prefer the value proposition of freestanding BPM suites as opposed to building BPM functionality into packaged applications, database products, or other software. Second, the research asks whether, in the long term, users will prefer BPM functionality converged into suites or prefer point products that perform the various functions of BPM separately. This white paper uses TIBCO's Staffware Process Suite as an example in explaining these choices.
