There’s an ancient saying that goes, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”.

At SAP Signavio, we embraced this philosophy wholeheartedly and the SAP Signavio Community took a significant step toward understanding our customers better.

Our journey began in September 2023 last year when we launched a customer survey that continued until January 2024. Our target was to get a deeper understanding of our valued customers' needs, aiming to enhance deliverables from our end and increase the acceleration of the use of our BPM suite regarding the Business Process Management methodology orientated on the BPM Lifecycle.

 We didn't just ask. We listened. We learned.

We explored various perspectives - from incorporating AI in process optimization, understanding the synergy between BPM and Lean management, to diving into the change management in the context of BPM and more. With the insightful responses we received from 200 of our esteemed customers, we managed to shed light on several hot BPM topics.

The analysis of this customer-driven data has helped us to realize what truly matters to you. Now, to encapsify our learning and promote a dynamic exchange of ideas, we are in the process of curating a series of expert sessions. These sessions aim to be a rich reservoir of knowledge, providing pragmatic solutions to the recurring issues, and delivering insights on diverse topics chosen by our customers. Thanks again for participating!
