Business Process Visual ARCHITECT (BPVA) inherits the world-class, award-winning visual modeling technology from our flagship product Visual Paradigm for UML (VP-UML). BP-VA helps you quickly and easily document your business processes to reduce costs and increase productivity, using the simple, OMG's standardized Business Process Management Notation (BPMN). BP-VA also generates XML and BPEL codes that can be shared, used and executed by many applications. Its supreme editing capabilities let you experience a real zero learning curve, making diagramming an enjoyable task and as a result, compressing your development time frame and maximizing your ROI. Start now to realize the instant high-quality results with BP-VA today! Powerful and Easy-to-use GUI Now developers can create BPM diagrams much faster than any tool on the market through Visual Paradigm's most intuitive resource-centric and mouse location sensitive GUI. Tidying up your complex and messy diagrams is just a matter of one mouse click by using BP-VA's automatic diagram layout technology, yet the unique gesture editing capability makes diagramming a fun task.
