Intuit: empowering SMBs with Process Automation

Small and medium-sized businesses face the same challenges as their bigger peers when customer and process numbers and, ultimately, revenue start to increase. However, unlike multinational enterprises and corporates, SMBs often lack the financial means to set up sophisticated IT departments to properly implement workflow and process automation. This is where Intuit comes in. Intuit provides software solutions for SMBs that empower them to automate their workflows using simple forms and templates, thus digitizing their businesses. This approach quickly pays off for its customers. In fact, Deloitte’s Connected Small Businesses US report reveals the most digitally advanced small businesses in the United States are more likely to create jobs and manage to significantly increase both revenue and top-line growth. At…

Speeding Up RPA through Behavioural Observation

As more businesses leverage RPA to address the pain-points associated with individual components in legacy systems, it’s worth considering how to best introduce and integrate these tools to your advantage. At CamundaCon LIVE 2020.2, Andres Jimenez Ramirez from the Universidad de Sevilla, and Hajo A. Reijers from Utrecht University, explained how taking a human-centered approach to RPA implementation pays dividends in the future.  Their research explores how RPA implementations typically mimic the behavior of human employees to automate manual tasks. In order to initially introduce RPA tools, most commercial platforms rely on a manual analysis to identify the tasks suitable for RPA automation. However, manual analysis is hugely time-consuming. It does not only involve the analysis of documentation, it is…

Creating a Frictionless Enterprise: Five Fundamentals

What if you could remove all of the friction in your enterprise, allowing for a streamlined, perfectly aligned flow of information across both internal and external stakeholders? Manuel Sevilla — Chief Digital Officer of Business Services at Capgemini — recently shared his thoughts on this topic at CamundaCon LIVE 2020.2, identifying the framework businesses must adopt to embrace the frictionless attitude. Let’s take a closer look at the five fundamentals enterprises should consider when trying to increase efficiency, get to market faster, and provide users with an enhanced experience.  1. Hyperscale Automation To improve your enterprise’s efficiency, focus on delivering a touchless process — one that uses automation in a way that makes it easier for the end users (and…

Virtual Conference Swag

One of the things that I love about being a Developer Advocate is attending and speaking at conferences. I loved that as a developer – in fact, I first met (now, fellow-) Camunda Developer Advocate Niall Deehan at the Camunda booth when speaking at NDC Oslo, in 2017. A essential part of the conference experience is getting some cool swag. My wardrobe is literally 70% conference and swag t-shirts. But as a Developer Advocate, I get to be one of the people handing out cool swag (as well as still snagging some cool stuff while I’m there). The recent move to online events has changed the world – creating some constraints, but also opening some novel possibilities: No more travelling…

Should data be embedded in business processes? It depends!

In October, I had the opportunity to lead a session at Camunda Unconference. This was a rather unique event, with an “unconference” format designed specifically for the community; it was most conducive to great peer-to-peer discussions, and exchange of ideas, experiences and learnings. What was also interesting was that the topics for the sessions were sourced from within the community, and each topic was voted in to a final shortlist. The sessions themselves were discussion-led, to encourage collaboration and creativity. Data in Process I had voted for “Data in Process” as one of the topics; it has always intrigued me, and needless to say, I was thrilled at the opportunity to lead the session! I have been consulting for customers building…

Testing Process Dependencies

Welcome to the next post in our blog series: “Treat your processes like code – test them!” You can find the last post: “Testing entire process paths” here. Today’s topic is “Testing process dependencies”. For the execution of a model, there are often additional resources required. This might be source code or the dependency on other models. But how can we deal with this when testing our models? In this post we will take a closer look at the following dependencies: We will get to know another library that will help us with testing: camunda-bpm-mockito. The examples for this blog post can be found in this GitHub repository. In the last post, we took a closer look at a small…

Hacktoberfest Retro

Hacktoberfest is a wrap! We’re so pleased that we were able to connect with so many of you from around the world. We set out with a goal of increasing the amount of engagement we get in our GitHub repos and you all delivered! From fixing typos to diving head-long into big feature requests, it was inspiring to see the pull requests that came in. Here are a few of my favorite recaps from the month: Two separate community members translated Tasklist into Hindi and Nepali. A third community member translated Admin, Cockpit, Tasklist and our Welcome Message into Brazilian Portuguese… with proper updates for the 7.14 release Another community member closed a 2-year-old feature request for Camunda to support…

Camunda Halloween

It’s a very Camunda Halloween, and this project should keep you safe from the Trick-or-Treaters! It’s more than just a BPM process, of course. It’s an IoT project that uses Camunda BPM to deliver the goods. I’ll break this post up into several sections, but you will need (or at least need access to) a 3-D printer to fully realize the awesomeness here. It uses a modified Dog Treat Dispenser because I didn’t have the time (or the skills) to design a whole new Candy Dispenser from scratch. Overview This is both a hardware and a software, as well as a BPMN, project, so there are a lot of moving parts — literally and figuratively. The first thing I had…
