SOA is a conceptual framework to describe and contain the business
services of an organisation

BPM is about the documentation and potential automation of processes
that implement the capabilities of those services.

In an SOA RM world it is the BPM piece that can deliver the real-world
effect for the capability but it is bounded and constrained by the
service.
