Salient Teams with IBM to Release New BPM UI Redbook

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Aug. 17, 2016 - PRLog -- Salient Process, Inc., a leading provider of IBM® Smarter Process services and solutions, today announced it has partnered with IBM for the development of IBM's new Redbooks® publication: "Deliver Modern UI for IBM with the Coach Framework and Other Approaches" (http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/Redbooks.nsf/RedpieceAbstracts/sg248355.html?Open).  A draft of the Redbook is available now.  This is part of the collaboration between IBM and Salient to make SPARK UI the default UI Toolkit for IBM BPM.

Brian French, CEO of Salient Process, said "Across our company we have contributed to quite a few Redbooks over the years. We find the participation to be very rewarding as we usually learn quite a bit as we are doing our part in giving back to the IBM ecosystem. We are very excited about this particular effort as Chapter 4 is a prescriptive guide in how to get the most out of our SPARK UI Toolkit. We believe it will provide unprecedented guidance to those working with IBM BPM UIs on a daily basis."

Eric Ducos, Chief Innovator of Salient Process, was the primary author of Chapter 4, with contributions from Matthew Oatts and John McDonald. These three Salient employees also contributed to Chapters 5 and 6, with additional contributions from Rackley Boren.
