Awards Director
Layna Fischer commented on the strength of the entries,
especially the case studies submitted in the North American
and European regions. “For the first time, because of
the depth of outstanding entries in North America, three
submissions tied for silver trophies,” said Ms Fischer. “In
Europe, there was a tie in the Gold Award category.”
Nathaniel Palmer, WfMC Executive
Director and Industry Analyst noted, “This year, we noted
the trend of different processes being
automated cost effectively under the same platform.
Additionally we saw ACM and dynamic case management becoming
more commonly deployed.”
Lead Judge Keith Swenson said, “ I was
pleased to see how many companies had interdisciplinary team
of customer-facing specialists, business architects,
software architects, developers and more from different
departments working together on completely new things and in
completely new ways of thinking in technology and business
models.”
