Abstract
Although business process management (‗BPM‘) is a popular concept, it has not yet been properly theoretically grounded. This leads to problems in identifying both generic and case specific critical success factors of BPM programs. The paper proposes an underlying theoretical framework with the utilization of three theories: contingency, dynamic capabilities and task technology fit. The main premise is that primarily the fit between the business environment and business processes is needed. Then both continuous improvement and the proper fit between business process tasks and information systems must exist. The underlying theory is used to identify critical success factors on a case study from the banking sector.

Task-technology fit and individual performance

TL;DR: This research highlights the importance of the fit between technologies and users' tasks in achieving individual performance impacts from information technology and suggests that task-technology fit when decomposed into its more detailed components, could be the basis for a strong diagnostic tool to evaluate whether information systems and services in a given organization are meeting user needs.

Understanding dynamic capabilities

TL;DR: In this paper, the strategic substance of capabilities involves patterning of activity, and that costly investments are typically required to create and sustain such patterning, for example, in product development, and whether higher-order capabilities are created or not depends on the costs and benefits of the investments relative to ad hoc problem solving.

Exploitation, Exploration, and Process Management: The Productivity Dilemma Revisited

TL;DR: In this article, a contingency view of process management's influence on both technological innovation and organizational adaptation is developed, arguing that while process management activities are beneficial for organizations in stable contexts, they are fundamentally inconsistent with all but incremental innovation and change.
