'''Business Process Modeling Language''' ('''BPML)''') is a language for [[business process modeling]]. BPML was a ''proposed'' language, but now the [[Business Process Management Initiative|BPMI]] has dropped support for this in favor of [[Business Process Execution Language|BPEL4WS]] (Business Process Execution Language for Web Services){{cn|date=February 2012}}.

As of 2008, BPML has also been reported to have been deprecated in favor of BPDM ([[Business Process Definition Metamodel]]).<ref>[http://www.ebpml.org/bpml.htm BPML] at ebPML</ref>

BPMI took this decision when it was acquired by [[Object_Management_Group|OMG]] in order to gain access to its popular specification, BPMN ([[Business Process Model and Notation]]). This notation was useful to [[Object Management Group|OMG]] in order to enrich UML with process notation.
