Digital Product Center System
We have chosen the Camunda technology to build the Digital Product Center system, awarded by the “Gazeta Bankowa” monthly with the recommendation “HIT of the Year 2017”. The system is a process platform for selling banking products and supporting customer-facing services through electronic channels, such as website, online & mobile banking, call center and IVR.
Digital Product Center has been implemented at the BGŻ BNP Paribas SA Group in Poland, where it supports the processes of selling fixed-term and investment deposits, savings and current accounts, debit and payment cards and cash loans, as part of onboarding processes for the Bank’s new customers and x-sell processes for its existing customers.
As part of the implementation, Camunda BPM supports 20 main sales or support processes with references to 30 subprocesses.
The implementation included all the system functionalities, i.e.: Camunda BPM Core Engine using Camunda Modeler, Camunda Tasklist and Camunda Cockpit.

Dedicated extensions
While working with our customers on process automation and digitalization with the use of Camunda workflow engine, we have faced this challenge several times. We noticed, that not every business domain or customer needs to have all the paid features at once. Some of them, due to process specificity will never be needed. In that case it is a good idea to enrich your open source Camunda installation with custom plugins or extensions. Thanks to openness of Camunda architecture, there are different options possible. With plugins you can add extra features to existing web application of Cockpit or Task list. You can also get a stand alone application, that integrates with your Camunda and provides extra features. There are different pros and cons for each of the approach, but the most important is, that both can be added to all open source installations.
