Major Breakthroughs of Business Process Management:

1.The first breakthrough is one that changes the way of the process descriptions from traditional language descriptions to standardized (5W2H/IPO) syntax.

2. The second breakthrough goes from standardized (5W2H/IPO) syntax to tabular format. Due to the unlimited rows and columns of an electronic table, holding hundreds and thousands of the business processes of an organization in one table has become a reality.

3. The third breakthrough is from tabular format to computer database presentation. By using modern information technology, we can manage the tabulated processes by database software. It helps us to automate processes in computers and networks.

4. The fourth breakthrough is from the computer database presentation to the integrated process management system based on the integrated process database. Because all processes can be standardized, tabulated, and stored in one database, all child process systems can be integrated into one single process system.

5. The transition from the integrated process management system to the integrated management system is the fifth breakthrough.
