What is BPM
■
BPM is a set of processes that help organizations optimize their
business performance. It is a framework for organizing, automating
and analyzing business methodologies, metrics, processes and
systems that drive business performance. [Wikipedia]
■
“Business Process Management (BPM) is a disciplined approach to
identify, design, execute, document, monitor, control, and
measure both automated and non-automated business processes to
achieve consistent, targeted results consistent with an organization's
strategic goals. BPM involves the deliberate, collaborative and
increasingly technology-aided definition, improvement, innovation,
and management of end-to-end business processes that drive
business results, create value, and enable an organization to meet
its business objectives with more agility.”

- 6. 6 Why BPM ■ Every organization has a number of processes. Not all are documented, neither all are followed and are up-to-date. ■ Processes change continuously, but without seeing the big picture you do not know what changes and if they are improvements or not. Most often the changes are not even documented. ■ BPM transforms this rigid pattern into flexible, choreographed business services through continuous improvement. ■ BPM improves productivity. ■ BPM improves decision-making. ■ BPM improves flexibility.
- 7. 7 BPM and Application Development (1) (from Craig Larman „Applying UML and Patterns“) (p.59) „How should use case be discovered?“ Guideline: The EBP Use Case For requirement analysis for a computer application focus on use cases at the level of elementary business processes (EBPs). EBP is a term from the business process engineering field, defined as: A task performed by one person in one place at one time, in response to a business event, which adds measurable business value and leaves the data in a consistent state. E.g. Approve Credit or Price Order .. Application Development Business Process

- 9. 9 BPM and Application Development (3) Process Layer Integration Layer Application Development
- 10. 10 BPM Layers … BPM Provides Managed, Flexible Process
- 11. 11 BPM and ERP ■ In a SOA implementation the process layer contains the process (workflow) logic. The traditional Electronic Data Processing (EDP) is done in the Application Layer. ■ A change in the process does not mean a change in the Application layer. And vice verso. ■ ERP without BPM is like the workflow in the brain with lots of email, phone calls and thus error prone and as can be often seen in the real daily work of companies. ■ Adding the BPM layer removes many manual tasks and implements the notify observer pattern. ■ The user is guided through the process without having to remember all the process steps.
- 12. BPM and ERP Example BPM ERP
- 13. 13 Traditional BPM In most cases this was done in a waterfall approach. Getting the requirements, modeling the processes, implementing the processes on proprietary process servers. ■ Analyze ■ Design / Modeling / Improve Process ■ Change Organization Structure ■ Implementing ■ Deploying ■ Execute ■ Monitoring ■ Optimization ■ Re engineering / Continuous Improvement
- 14. 14 Agile BPM as Software Engineering Discipline (1) ■ Agility in BPM can be seen from different viewpoints: – Agility as synonym for flexibility. This means that BPM is flexible and allows quick adaptation of changes in the business environment. Thus it is not related to BPM methods. – Agility in the sense of merging modeling and implementation phases of the BPM Lifecycle. – Agility in connection with process development / adaptation ■ To use agility as synonym for flexibility of BPM just adds to confusion.

- 26. 26 Continuous Improvement ■ Is a formal ongoing approach to improve the processes (based on feedback from various sources). ■ Processes are constantly monitored, analyzed, (re)modeled and implemented ■ Reflects the actual situation. ■ allows the identification of wastes as the appear. Any changes needed are sent as a request to the product owner as described before and the agile BPM process starts for those changes to be realized.
- 27. 27 Summary ■ BPM Projects and Scrum work well, with or without IT involvement ■ There is no need to wait for BPM to complete once the process is improved and activities are to implemented. ■ The BPM backlog is the input for the realization in ERP. Basically an activity in BPM can become a backlog item in the ERP process. ■ The same process is used for continuous improvement of the process
