Deliver a competitive customer experience with automated workflows
Your employees perform tasks, make decisions and take action in a variety of workflows every day
Whether you’re looking to improve customer-facing workflows or internal processes, each one requires different steps to execute or guide different activities.
These varied activities present three challenges:
- How do you optimize and scale activities in the most accurate, consistent and responsive way to satisfy customers?
- How do you find a solution that can meet diverse needs to handle less-structured, case-centric activities?
- How do you measure performance and determine what needs improvement?

Success story
Financial firm consolidates content for efficiency
A large fund administrator had content related to various accounts scattered across its data storage and administrative interfaces rather than readily accessible within each account. With the help of IBM Case Manager, now part of the IBM Business Automation Workflow, the content was consolidated, and each account was simplified with the creation of a unified electronic record.
