Notes

a. Lessons learned developing Mobil Oil’s Global Knowledge Management Strategy and Global Expert System Strategy, and the Government of Canada Social Security Modernization project

b. Business processes are a series of actions or functions occurring in order. Business rules engines, however, fire rules in whatever order makes logical sense. Now that these seemingly conflicting tools are being combined to yield powerful results, we need a way to design integrated Business Rules that work with both BPM and BRE tools

c. The single greatest cost in both time and resources in IT is changing the systems as the business processes and rules change. Consequently, the overriding concerns for IT must be designing for change and meeting changing business requirements. Business Rules Engines like Microsoft's BizTalk BRE help surmount this challenge: They enable real-time change and reduce application development & maintenance costs by 25% to 50% or more. Business Rules technology also puts business rules management back in the hands of the business, and it frees IT to focus on integration, architecture, and technology. But the real strategic value of rule engines like BizTalk BRE is that is they are also a very effective solution for some of the key challenges facing business today. Just as Six Sigma was the answer for quality, Business Rules is proving to be the answer for Preventing business mistakes, Compliance, Developer/Programmer Productivity, Reducing IT development and maintenance costs, Time to market, Downsizing
