⚡How implementing enterprise-wide Business Rules and Decision Management improves operational effectiveness and efficiency?
The insurance banking financialservices and government runs on rules. But the idea of “rules management” means very different things to IT than business teams.
💢For developers, rules management usually means having a bre integration so they can change rules more easily. But the rules are still embedded in the systems they build, often written in the same programming languages, with only a thin layer of configurability.
What is the issue with this approach to rules management? The facts are that:
🔸 It still requires a high level of programming and coding expertise
🔸 Rules management never truly leaves software development and IT teams
🔸 The life cycle of rules remains tightly coupled with software, process, and system releases
What does good look like?
💡Rules should be managed by decisions, and decisions should be owned by business and operations not IT.
What's the challenge?
🔸Shifting the authority of change and schedules of deployments
🔸Trusting the other teams (non-technical, SME and ops) by software development and IT for complex change management
🔸Deploying the changes in a secure and controlled manner
🔸Fear of losing control (in IT and software development)

✔️ It reduces the burden on software development and IT teams and lets them focus on strategic priorities
✔️ Puts the change management in the hands of SMEs and the operations team to respond to business needs quicker and more frequently.
