In this two-part webinar series, Blue Polaris and IBM come together to show you how to harness generative AI safely, transparently, and at scale by pairing it with IBM Business Automation Manager Open Edition (BAMOE), a leading cloud-native, open core automation platform.
Discover how generative AI enhances IBM BAMOE by reducing the time and complexity of building the process and decision models that power BAMOE, and what it takes to move beyond experimentation into real business transformation.
In this second session, you'll learn how to:
– Rapidly extract requirements from large regulation and policy document sets using tools like IBM Bob and Claude Code
– Use AI to turn requirements documents to first cut BPMN process models and DMN decision models
– Extract BPMN and DMN models from legacy code to modernize legacy applications
– Engage business users directly with these visual blueprints to validate requirements
– Rapidly deploy BPMN and DMN models to BAMOE to create a modern, model-driven backbone
Move beyond experimentation and discover what real business transformation looks like when AI and automation work together.
