Abstract: There are potential benefits of operating business process management (BPM) side-by-side with business service management (
BSM). BPM and

This white paper is intended for managers interested in implementing robust BPM solutions in IT-dependent business scenarios or managers looking to lay down a basic foundation for effective on-demand utility computing. It addresses the partnership between Fuego and Proxima Technology, vendors in BPM and
BSM solutions.
