The International Conference on Business Process Management (BPM) was established about 19 years ago as the conference where people from academia and industry meet and discuss the latest developments in the area of business process management. In 2021, the conference was organized in Rome, Italy. This year’s BPM also featured eight different workshops, selected after a thorough evaluation phase, which provided a forum for novel research ideas. Workshops were held on September 6, 2021, right before the main conference. While the main conference was meant to present finished research, the workshops were meant to discuss research that is still in progress. Each of the workshops focused on particular aspects of business process management. These proceedings present the work that was discussed during the workshops. In total, the BPM 2021 workshops were able to attract 60 submissions. 31 full papers were accepted for publication, leading to an overall acceptance rate of 51.6%. The resulting workshop programs were complemented by many keynote talks from renowned experts. Two of them have been included in these proceedings as invited papers. BPM 2021 featured the following workshops: • 5th International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Business Process Management (AI4BPM 2021) • 17th International Workshop on Business Process Intelligence (BPI 2021) • 9th International Workshop on DEClarative, DECision and Hybrid approaches to processes (DEC2H 2021) • 14th International Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process Management (BPMS2 2021) • 1st International Workshop on BPM Governance for and Beyond Digital Transformation (BPMGOV 2021) • The Fourth Workshop on Security and Privacy-enhanced Business Process Management (SPBP 2021) • 5th International Workshop on Business Processes Meet the Internet-of-Things (BP-Meet-IoT 2021) • 1st International Workshop on Business Process Management and Routine Dynamics (BPM&RD 2021) As in previous years, the BPM workshop proceedings are post-proceedings. We are confident that this process of selection, presentation, and revision has led to a collection of high-quality papers. We hope that the reader will enjoy this volume and find some inspiration for future work.
