The document discusses the synergies between business process management (BPM) and service-oriented architecture (SOA) and provides examples of how they can be jointly applied. It describes how BPM reveals the relationships between business artifacts and how SOA provides recommendations for implementing and governing services. When used together, BPM and SOA enable flexible and executable models of an enterprise. The document also provides several case studies illustrating how specific organizations have benefited from taking a BPM and SOA approach.
