AGENTIS SOFTWARE SUPPORTS INDUSTRY STANDARDS FOR BUSINESS PROCESS MANAGEMENT

Agentis joins BPMI.org to drive standards in process automation

Walnut Creek, CA - October 25, 2001 - Agentis Software[tm], the leading provider of high-performance Business Process Management Systems (BPMS), today announced its membership in the Business Process Management Initiative (BPMI.org), an independent organization devoted to the development of open standards for the management of e-Business processes that span multiple applications, corporate departments, and business partners, behind the firewall and over the Internet.

Jean-Yves Dexmier, CEO of Agentis Software states, "By joining other leading software companies such as IBM, Hewlett Packard and BEA Systems in supporting industry standards for Business Process Management (BPM), it enables Agentis to both support and influence the industry at a critical time in the development lifecycle, enabling partners and customers to benefit from a collective of experts in this challenging and ever-changing environment."

Agentis Software’s unique Business Process Management System simplifies business automation by enabling organizations to individually design and change process components without worrying about their relationship with other process components. By removing the limitations associated with traditional static hard coded solutions, Agentis allows for very short production cycles, enabling organizations to rapidly automate complex business processes while simultaneously accelerating responsiveness to business change and enhancing robustness to tolerate unplanned events. By joining BPMI.org and supporting industry standards such as BPML, WSFL, and UML/XMI, Agentis is allowing customers and partners to realize the advantages of executing automated business processes on the Agentis BPMS, even if those processes were designed with another tool.

Ismael Ghalimi, CEO and co-founder of Intalio and the initiator of the Business Process Management Initiative added, "We are very pleased that Agentis Software has become a member of BPMI.org. With their innovative approach to business automation, Agentis brings a fresh perspective, as well as a team of highly qualified experts, that will assist BPMI.org with its mission to standardize business process management across all industries."
