Accelerating Business Process<br />
Management Automation
<strong>Accenture</strong> has delivered<br />
hundreds of large-scale,<br />
innovative, <strong>Pega</strong>-based<br />
process management<br />
solutions, and has drawn<br />
from that experience<br />
to create the <strong>Accenture</strong><br />
<strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>Plat<strong>for</strong>m</strong><br />

Architecture<br />
plat<strong>for</strong>m accelerates<br />
development of complex<br />
<strong>Pega</strong> solutions<br />
Organizations today must streamline<br />
business processes, reduce IT expenses<br />
and improve business execution to adapt<br />
to an increasingly challenged global<br />
economy. This is why organizations<br />
are going all out to ensure that<br />
technology systems and architecture<br />
can turn on a dime to meet business<br />
needs quickly and effectively.<br />
<strong>Accenture</strong> works closely with <strong>Pega</strong>, a<br />
leader in business process management<br />

approach to BPM automation and<br />
process lifecycle management (PLM),<br />
helping to drive revenue growth and<br />
enhance operational efficiency.<br />
Given the game-changing possibilities<br />
that <strong>Pega</strong>’s solutions offer, <strong>Accenture</strong><br />

<strong>Plat<strong>for</strong>m</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Pega</strong> to help businesses and<br />
governments accelerate complex solution<br />
development, improve predictability,<br />
reduce IT costs and gain business agility.<br />
