Customer Process Management

Customer Process Management is the process of integrating BPM and CRM technologies. The genesis of CPM can be traced to the efforts of companies to automate routine operational activities which led to the development of standalone BPM.

However, integrating disparate automated functionalities was not sufficient if companies wished to keep up with the ever rising consumer expectations. The objective of CPM is to ensure that processes take into account customer preferences and can be repeated to provide personalized and efficient service.
