BPM and blockchain integrationUnified platform to build critical applications in consortiums

of multiple organizations

Main benefits

1. Allow multiple partners to trust a common process

2. Improve customer engagement3. Provide end-to-end traceability

and real time audit trail

Blockchain network

Use business processes to encapsulate the logic to allow multiple independent participants to exchange assets.

This is a complementary approach to “immutable” Smart Contracts in blockchain.

Allow multiple partners to trust a common process

Seamless coordination between systems, processes and dedicated user interfaces and applications allows blockchain partners to better engage and serve customers

Improved customer engagement

A real-time audit trail can be generated with timestamps and digital signatures for each step with every partner.
