    BPM Implementation Alliance
    .

    Most BPM projects require different types of expertise at different stages. If you don't have the skills in house you either end up with trying to get multiple consulting companies to work with each other, or using a single firm that is strong in one area, but weaker in the others. The BPM Implementation Alliance solves this problem by providing a tightly-knit network of best -in-class BPM expert consulting companies that share information, standards, and methodologies and ultimately behave as one virtual entity.
