Developing a Smart, Integrated Framework of Business Process Management System by Integrating the Strategy Management Tools and Techniques

In today’s rapidly evolving business environment, organizations face increasing pressure to remain agile, innovative, and strategically focused. While Business Process Management (BPM) has long been recognized as a method for improving operational efficiency and process optimization, many traditional BPM frameworks fail to adequately incorporate strategic intent into their lifecycle. This gap often results in well-managed processes that are misaligned with overarching business goals. This research presents a comprehensive review of BPM methodologies from 2012 to 2021 and proposes a novel framework—Strategy-Integrated Business Process Management (SIBPM)—that embeds strategic alignment directly into each phase of the BPM lifecycle. The framework emphasizes five key components: defining clear strategic objectives, sensing business trends, integrating multiple stakeholder views in process design, executing with performance monitoring, and maintaining a continuous feedback loop for improvement. Through an extensive literature review and a comparative analysis, the study highlights limitations in existing methods such as the Five Diamond Method, View Integration approaches, and digital transformation models, which tend to focus on innovation or modeling without offering full strategic alignment or adaptability. In contrast, the SIBPM framework offers a dynamic and holistic solution, bridging strategy and operations across departments while responding to shifting market conditions.
