Welcome to the BPMN Forum discussion group! This group discusses a broad range of topics related to the Business Process Modeling & Notation (BPMN) language and Business Process Modeling (BPM) best practices. BPMN is the industry-standard visual modeling language for business analysts to specify enterprise process workflows. BPMN was created by the Business Process Management Initiative (BPMI) in 2004, and is currently maintained by the Object Management Group since the former merged with the latter in 2005. Topics discussed here include BPMN applications, BPMN specifications, BPMN tools, BPMN training, BPMN publications, and BPM processes that use BPMN. Popular questions discussed here are candidates for the BPMN FAQ maintained on BPMN Forum web and the BPMN Tools FAQ maintained on the BPMN.Tools web.
