Call For Papers

BPM 2026 (International Conference on Business Process Management) is a ICORE A / QUALIS A2 conference held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on 2026-09-27. The paper submission deadline is 2026-03-06. Acceptance notifications are sent on 2026-05-12.

The International Conference on Business Process Management (BPM) is the premium forum for researchers and practitioners in the field of BPM. The conference embraces the interdisciplinary nature of BPM to its fullest extent. To this end, the conference explicitly seeks to bring together the finest research contributions and viewpoints from the fields of computer science, information systems engineering, and information systems management. The objective is to enhance or refine the existing portfolio of theories, methods, and tools for managing and improving business processes. To accommodate the diversity of contributions, the BPM conference is structured into three tracks: Foundations, Engineering, and Management. Each track covers different phenomena of interest and research methods. Accordingly, each track has specific evaluation criteria, a separate track chair, and a dedicated program committee. The track chairs work together with the consolidation chair to align the tracks. Submitting author teams are advised to pay special attention to the typical audiences for the contributions from each of the tracks. This assists in selecting the right track for the work and shape the work according to the expectations from that audience. Track I: Foundations Track I invites papers that have a foundational (formal, mathematical, algorithmic, or conceptual) nature. It focuses on (i) papers investigating the underlying principles of BPM, computational theories, formal methods and algorithms for modeling, automating, analyzing, and optimizing business processes; (ii) papers identifying novel problems, novel modeling languages, architectures and other concepts underlying process-aware information systems, as well as conceptual papers on frameworks, taxonomies, patterns and that investigate problems in the design of BPM systems. As papers in this track are not expected to propose an immediate application in concrete business environments, empirical evaluation is not mandatory. Instead, determining factors will be technical quality standards (e.g., sound formalization, rigorous research method, clear description of the problem tackled and positioning concerning state of the art, convincing argumentation and benefits of the contribution), and the degree to which the developed foundations lay out new ways of modeling, analyzing, and improving BPM systems. You should send your paper to Track I if one or more of the following applies: It provides foundational insights about principles and concepts of BPM. It advances state-of-the-art in BPM through the investigation of formal methods and algorithms. It identifies novel problems in BPM and contributes to their definition through languages, architectures, conceptual models, frameworks, patterns and taxonomies for BPM. It demonstrates technical quality and shows how the developed foundations permit new ways of modeling or analyzing BPM systems. It proposes conceptual contributions to the domain of BPM. The typical audience for papers submitted to Track I are both researchers and engineers. Beyond expanding state-of-the-art, solutions can be built on top of the presented formal methods and algorithms. The BPM community at large will benefit from the foundational contributions. Track II: Engineering Track II invites papers that deal with engineering aspects of BPM research. The focus is on the development and investigation of artifacts and systems that aim to solve concrete problems in business environments. This track covers tools and techniques for process modeling, the enactment of process models as well as process monitoring and analytics (including process mining techniques). It includes the usage of such artifacts and systems in particular domains, such as digital health, smart mobility, logistics, or smart government. It also addresses aspects related to the interaction between processes and software infrastructure and services. All papers in this track must include rigorous and reproducible empirical evaluations that demonstrate the merits of the artifact introduced. A self-critical discussion of limitations and threats to validity is expected. If the artifact is based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, the contribution cannot be a mere application of existing techniques. Instead, an adequate justification of the adaptations to the AI techniques required in the BPM context should be provided. Formalization of problems and solutions should be used if they add clarity or are beneficial in other ways. You should send your paper to Track II if one or more of the following applies: It proposes a significant contribution to BPM in the form of a novel artifact or system. Its results are empirically evaluated in a rigorous and reproducible manner (reproducibility includes making the data, code and other relevant aspects of the evaluation available). It reports on an artifact or system you designed, with a maturity of at least a prototype, i.e., it can be evaluated in an application context. The typical audience for papers submitted to Track II are engineers who wish to analyze or further develop the artifact in question or analysts who wish to apply it in practice. Track III: Management Track III invites papers that focus on the empirical, socio-technical, cognitive, psychological, managerial and societal aspects of BPM. This includes all techniques, tools, and methods that are employed in and across organizations to better govern business processes. Research papers that are submitted to this track aim to advance our understanding of how process management (and mining) concepts, along with the underlying information systems can deliver business value. In particular, we seek contributions that (1) propose novel organizational and technology-enabled modes of BPM, (2) advance our understanding of how organizations can develop process-oriented capabilities, or (3) examine the (cross-)organizational or managerial impact of novel BPM affordances as well as their context. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, strategic alignment, governance, methods, information technology, people, and culture; as long as there is a significant link to business process management. Further, all levels of analysis (individual, team, organization, or ecosystem) are welcome. Papers may use various research methodologies, including case study research, action research, experiments, focus group research, survey research, or design science research. Papers will be evaluated according to current management and information systems standards. These include an appropriate motivation and framing of the research study and methodology, rigorous application of the selected research method, convincing argumentation of design choices, positioning against state-of-the-art, and, wherever possible, demonstration of the findings’ applicability and evaluation of the results’ efficacy. You should send your paper to Track III if one or more of the following applies: It tackles an organizational or societal challenge from a process-oriented perspective. It considers socio-technical aspects: technology, task, and people. It extends the BPM body of knowledge to better contribute to process innovation, process-related digitalization, process analysis, and organizational routines. It builds on and draws from real-world organizational endeavors in BPM. The typical audience for papers submitted to Track III are managers and decision makers who wish to draw lessons from what is presented.
