In my case I use Groovy tasks and the groovy-wslite library (https://github.com/jwagenleitner/groovy-wslite). Usually you will have to do some mapping anyway, so this solution works well for me.

As an aditional advice, think about routing all your calls through an ESB. This way you´ll have a single base address (say http://host/services) to configure in your BPM environment and can profit from all the extra stuff an ESB can offer, like message monitoring/logging, QoS, etc.

I use only simple & few web service calls & going for ESB is not required. Would you please through some info on how to achieve it through groovy.
