Sponsors and Management
The Awards
Program is managed by Future Strategies Inc .,
the Awards Director is Layna Fischer in collaboration with Nathaniel Palmer of
WfMC with sponsorship from the
following organizations:
Media Sponsors
Standards Associations
OMG
- The OMG is an international standards body. The Business Modeling and
Integration Domain Taskforce is actively involved in developing Business
Process related standards such as BPMN, BPDM and BPRI.
WfMC - The Workflow
Management Coalition has been the long term supporter of the Excellence
Awards in BPM and Workflow. Along with developing the Workflow Reference
Framework, the WfMC is the home of process standards such as XPDL and Wf-XML.
XPDL.org - XPDL is the Serialization Format for BPMN
BPMN is a visual process notation standard from
the OMG, endorsed by WfMC, and broadly adopted across the industry. But the
BPMN standard defines only the look of how the process definition is
displayed on the screen. How you store and interchange those process
definitions is outside the scope of the standard, and this is where XPDL
comes in.
Any questions about your submission should be directed
