This document discusses Bonita Open Solution, an open source business process management system (BPMS). It begins by explaining why BPM is needed through an example of not knowing how to cook a dish when the usual cook is absent. It then discusses what a BPMS provides, including automating processes and improving agility. The rest of the document demonstrates Bonita Open Solution through a live demo and discusses its architecture, development process, and how to contact the company.
