BPM can become a real driver of innovaiton.  An article in SearchCIO.com (March 1, 2007) describes how process management can become a platform for innovation.  BPM provides a lens to look at the business and find inconsistencies in service delivery or operations.  Frequently the opportunities that BPM makes visible offer significant potential for profitable change.  By implementing BPM companies have, by default, implemented the required processes for monitoring and analyzing opportunities for innovative change.
