BPA and BPM Suites have long been ships passing in the night. A few BPMS vendors, like Oracle and IBM, have made efforts to integrate BPA with executable processes, but even there the fact that BPA and BPMS tools are based on different process metamodels has made roundtripping less than ideal. Appian and Mega have solved the problem in a neat but effective way: importing Appian BPMS process modeling into the Mega BPA environment. You get all the architecture and analysis features of world-class BPA tightly integrated with model-driven execution in a world-class BPMS. Read all about it in my report here.

What Is Method and Style?
While the various business modeling standards provide the foundational vocabulary and structures used for documenting and analyzing process diagrams (BPMN), decision models (DMN), and case management frameworks (CMMN), they do not offer specific methodologies for effective use. Method and Style fills this gap by introducing standardized techniques and rules that help practitioners present complex logic and flows in a way that is easy to understand and implement, enhancing both communication and precision in business analysis.
