Morphology

bpm = business + process + management (transparent) = b + p + m

The acronym maps directly to the phrase 'Business Process Management'; knowing those words makes the sense clear.

Etymology

Bpm also stands for Business Process Management, which is about 'managing' and improving the steps a company uses to do its work. A helpful image is thinking of it as making a messy set of tasks flow smoothly, and that is why bpm helps companies work faster and clearer.
