Executives roundly agree on this issue.&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/camunda.com\/state-of-process-orchestration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Recent automation market research<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">&nbsp;shows 95 percent of executives surveyed say process automation drives more business productivity, and 93 percent say it improves business growth. Moreover, more than 90 percent say they plan to increase investments in process automation implementations over the next two years.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">At the same time, companies are struggling to get all of their automation projects under control. Nearly three-quarters of executives in the same survey agree that real-world, mission-critical processes are difficult to maintain. While companies invest more in automation, they face challenges in automating processes end-to-end.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">They need more coordination of multiple automated tasks of very different natures. This can be achieved through new technologies that master the art of process orchestration. The biggest roadblocks to solving process orchestration are process complexity and endpoint diversity. We\u2019ll explore each of these next.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Automating a simple sequence of steps isn\u2019t rocket science, but very few business processes are, in reality, that simple. End-to-end processes are complex. They don\u2019t follow a linear pattern; instead, they involve numerous tasks running in parallel, must wait for events or business conditions, or be able to interrupt activities at any time if necessary. Such processes are not only harder to implement but also hard to scope and define with multiple stakeholders.\u202f<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The second obstacle in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/business-process-management\/how-to-avoid-common-process-automation-project-pitfalls\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">process automation<\/a>&nbsp;is the variety of endpoints. Every process consists of a series of tasks that need to be orchestrated. Every job may require integrating a different endpoint\u2014a person, team, or department, another internal or external system, IoT, and physical devices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Integration of various endpoints is not only an integration challenge\u2014it can also lead to more operational problems and complexity that need to be mastered and tamed. From a system perspective, while microservice architectures might solve some integration challenges, every enterprise must connect internal or external legacy systems for processes to be efficient. The same spectrum of complexity applies to human and device-related process integration and <strong>orchestration<\/strong>.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\"> &nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?rct=j&amp;sa=t&amp;url=https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/business-process-management\/how-process-orchestration-alleviates-automations-two-biggest-roadblocks\/&amp;ct=ga&amp;cd=CAEYBCoUMTQ2MTQ1MDg5Nzg0NTE1MDUxNzEyGjg3OTEwMGZiYmM3MWIwNjQ6Y29tOmVuOlVT&amp;usg=AOvVaw2QI_4ZjRTdMncEyLGh_Cz6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read On:<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Bernd Ruecker &#8211;&nbsp;One of the core benefits companies gain from digitization is the ability to generate efficiencies or gain a competitive advantage by automating business processes.
