Business automation for every need

The Content layer of the Canon Information Orchestration Framework

Canon organises information management in four movements: Capture, Content, Communicate and Process. IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation spans the Content and Process layers: it governs content and runs the workflows and decisions that act on it, at enterprise scale.

One governed home for content, connected to capture on the way in and to processes on the way out.

A modular platform, not a monolith

Organisations choose the components they need, from content services and workflow to document processing and decision management, and add others later on the same platform. That suits enterprises with content spread across many systems and processes that cross departments.

Secure, scalable document management for a health insurer

A Belgian health insurer strengthened secure, scalable document management with IBM FileNet to support critical insurance processes, with IRIS IMS, a Canon IMS competence centre, as implementation partner.

Workflow for public transport operations

A Brussels public transport company manages planned traffic disruptions with IBM Business Automation Workflow, coordinating the teams and steps involved.

AI-based document processing

Document processing extracts and applies information with AI, converting unstructured content from physical and digital documents into data that workflows and decisions can use.

Decisions as managed business rules

Decision management keeps business rules out of code and in a governed repository, so policies can be changed quickly and applied consistently across processes.

Key benefits

Modular: Start with the components you need and extend later.

Enterprise scale: Built for complex, cross-departmental processes.

Hybrid cloud: Runs in any hybrid cloud environment.

Where it fits

IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation is our choice for large organisations, often in insurance and the public sector, with content and processes spread across many systems and an existing IBM landscape such as FileNet. For a lighter content platform, IRISNext or Therefore may fit better.

We propose what fits your process, not what we happen to sell.
