Summary/Abstract: Workflow and activity management, also commonly referred to as Business Process Management (BPM), is without a doubt every bit as important as the introduction of a workflow in itself. Standard operations and procedures, inside a public institution, has multiple benefits, ranging from faster operations and increased productivity, to lowering the errors an employee can make.A workflow has to be properly planned and accordingly managed, otherwise employees might find themselves struggling to achieve the levels of effectiveness a manager would have hoped, in the long run. As such, this paper offers an overview of stacks and open-source projects for BPM and Document management, evaluating pros and cons of each solution, with a current focus on module sand ideas that can be implemented for document and resources management, in Romanian national defense institutions.
