The BPM Academic Initiative

The BPM Academic InitiativeInformation published on non-SAP site is a joint program of SAP Signavio and several international universities to support business process management in academic teaching and research. As part of the Academic Initiative, SAP Signavio allows students and teachers to use the academic process modeling platform at academic.signavio.comInformation published on non-SAP site for free, given the purpose is non-commercial and non-productive.

Note the following differences between SAP Signavio's academic platform and the commercial offering:

  • It is illegal to use the academic platform for commercial or productive purposes.

  • All content users create on the academic platform may be made publicly available for research purposes (if requested, anonymized).

  • SAP Signavio doesn't provide any performance or availability guarantees for the academic platform. SAP Signavio may deploy code to the academic platform before it is deemed mature enough for our commercial systems.

  • The focus of the academic platform is process modeling. Many advanced process management and collaboration features are not available. The same applies to document uploads and interfaces for system integrations.

  • While SAP Signavio generally handles requests from users of our academic platform, questions and issues of paying customers are given a higher priority. SAP Signavio doesn't commit to responding to inquiries of users of the academic platform within a specific timeframe.
