| Boston, MA - May 23, 2005 : Perot Systems (NYSE: PER) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary and market advisor, Delphi Group, is now providing a certification in business process management (BPM), offering business and IT professionals recognition and career enhancement opportunities in this market space. The Delphi Group program recognizes a level of excellence that demonstrates an individual's commitment and understanding of BPM. Through a combination of education, methods, and real world expertise, Delphi Group provides professionals from both business and technical backgrounds with a solid foundation for a BPM career and credentials that validate competency. "As we assist organizations undertaking business process management projects, we have consistently seen a need for validated competency and expertise,” explains Nathaniel Palmer, Delphi Group's chief analyst. “Delphi Group BPM certification recognizes multi-step levels of competency from initial familiarity to the black belt level for individuals who have mastered the nuances of business process excellence.” At the highest level of recognition, Delphi Group requires a combination of specific instruction, examination, and demonstrated competency through verifiable project experience. All of Delphi Group BPM certification programs begin with the BPM Bootcamp, an intensive two-day workshop combining instruction, teamwork exercises, documentation methods, and hands-on exercises in process analysis. Delphi Group offers the BPM Bootcamp as both a packaged training program delivered in-house at single organizations, as well as regularly scheduled seminars held at sites throughout the year. This results-oriented workshop combines a rigorous education with consultative critiquing of progress made toward completion of a real time business process management project. The intensive two-day program involves teams of IT and business partners in the design and evaluation of multi-phase workplace solutions involving business processes. Instructors are working consultants who prepare client teams before and follow up on their progress after the workshop. The next scheduled BPM Bootcamp is June 8-9, 2005 in Boston.
