To re-focus the new Wang's Business Process Management (BPM) re-
engineering consultants on Wang's new TQM-driven re-engineering
strategy, the Wang BPM Resource Center in Brussels recently conducted
formal Wang corporate BPM "Boot Camp" training sessions for Wang
Europe subsidiaries.

Guy Vanhomwegen, center director, said, "Our regional practice
managers said they needed more BPM consultants."

Twenty-seven people were trained during this particular session.
They came from Belgium, the Netherlands, the UK, Italy, Australia,
and the Wang US BPM Resource Center.  The US and Australian
representatives attended to become familiar with the Brussels courseware,
which they will teach at their home sites.  Wang Brussels developed the
courseware and course format.

Guy explained that the five phases of Wang BPM are: define the customer's
goals and identify business processes that could be improved; analyze
and quantify a selected business process; redesign the business
process; implement the new process, and lastly, measure the results
to see if they meet the goals established in Phase 1.
