Combined with intelligent modeling tools capable of hiding implementation details, business analysts will finally be able to capture/create process models at the design level and still be able to review and edit them after IT programmers add the implementation details. The same models will feed the analytics and simulation tools that are part of the BPMS offering. Organizations buying BPM tools should demand these capabilities from the tool builders.
