An automated BPM solution is represented by business rules and process elements. This solution integrates internal IT systems and collaborates with external entities as directed by the business rules. When a solution calls for software development, a company can follow either a linear Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), commonly called the waterfall, or a more iterative approach, such as Rapid Application Development (RAD).

Come up with an analysis of the diverse aspects of BPM software development. You may focus on the choice of development life cycle (e.g., SDLC, RAD), the BPM system structure (e.g., three-tier), or quality assurance. Pick one strategy and explain its strengths and weaknesses.
