*Theme*
Business process management (BPM) has become one of the most widely discussed approaches for information professionals. The potential of BPM particularly lies in the integration of advanced information technology with organizational and managerial methods to foster and leverage business innovation, operational excellence and intra- and inter-organizational collaboration.
Business Process Management as an Information Systems discipline is characterized by a myriad of approaches towards the analysis, modelling, implementation, execution and management of information systems with a process focus, ranging from those supported by groupware and project management products to those supported by workflow management systems and, more recently, business process management systems. However, Business Process Management also embraces further, widely undefined themes pertaining to the engineering and management of systems and organizations, particularly with respect to the areas of organizational culture, process-aware information systems, strategic alignment, and governance structures.
The aim of the BPM track is to provide a forum for thought leaders in this area to assist in further shaping the BPM identify as a boundary-spanning, relevant and identity-defining discipline of IS research. The BPM track intends to capture the contemporary state of the art in BPM research, bringing together global BPM thought leaders from both academia and practice. A particular aim of the track is to push the discussion in contemporary BPM research beyond information technology and methods, to also embrace aspects of strategic alignment, governance, people and culture.
We invite rigorous and relevant contributions from a wide variety of research methods, addressing topics such as the below. Submissions will be reviewed by at least three members of the international Editorial Board.
*Topics*

- Strategic alignment of BPM (e.g., value-based process management)
