2. A female of this species, used in falconry.
 Group has announced a new suite of software tools for the delivery of "intelligent' Business Process Management (BPM). iBPS integrates the predictive accuracy of simulation and optimization, more commonly associated with industrial and manufacturing applications, with the range of process-centric applications and middleware Software that functions as a conversion or translation layer. It is also a consolidator and integrator. Custom-programmed middleware solutions have been developed for decades to enable one application to communicate with another that either runs on a different platform or comes from a  technology currently used in the expanding field of BPM.

There has always been a need for improved rigour rig·our

 and clarity in supporting decision-making.iBPS satisfies that need, it is claimed, through the use of simulation and optimization technology, including 3D visualization, scenario analysis Scenario analysis

The use of horizon analysis to project total returns under different reinvestment rates and future market yields.
, and rules discovery which combined offer for the capability of "intelligent" BPM.

There are three components IBPS portfolio, designed to add value throughout the BPM implementation cycle.

* 'idesign' employs simulation and 3D visualization as a strategic tool within the process design stage, to determine key business or process improvement initiatives for process value discovery.

* 'ipredict' enables the business process 'smart' user to employ simulation-based decision- support applications to facilitate better informed and intelligent decisions for customer service

* 'icommand' provides a simulation-based console of the automated process, presenting dynamic real time business metrics for analysis. This in effect builds a 'command centre' through which the enterprise benefits from decisions that are verified by simulation and improved through optimization. icommand optimizes the parameters of the real-time process model to rectify rec·ti·fy

1. To set right; correct.

2. To refine or purify, especially by distillation.
