Comparison of BPM Suites and Their Application in Enterprise Architecture / Comparison of BPM Suites and Their Application in Enterprise Architecture

Mach, Jiří January 2013 (has links)
The evolution of services oriented architecture and the centralization of services enable the expansion of business process management tools. The centralized solution for BPM brings more flexibility, and it also helps to build high-quality architecture. Currently there exist several solutions that support the BPM, and the selection of the proper tool can be difficult. Simultaneously, it is a rapidly growing industry which also brings several standards and principals. The main goal of my thesis is to help IT and business specialist with the selection and application of BPM into enterprise architecture.

An investigation of Business Process maturity: a case study in a South African parastatal

Nteo, Maleho January 2017 (has links)
Business Process Management (BPM) has become one of the management approaches adopted by many organisations that strive to survive in a turbulent and competitive environment. BPM offers the means to manage and optimize business processes with the objective of improved efficiency and effectiveness; thereby improving the potential of business success. However, the extent to which BPM influences business success is a matter of debate with diverse schools of thought finding it difficult to reach consensus regarding the critical success factors of BPM and the extent at which processes and people influence business success. The capability of an organisation or enterprise is the ability to deliver on a desired outcome. In this dissertation, the enterprise capabilities of BPM are investigated. The research sets out to investigate the BPM maturity level of a South African parastatal. The intention is to identify and improve on those factors that influence maturity of the enterprise capabilities and may have negative impact on stakeholders. The approach taken to address the research objectives drew on case study methodology. Fieldwork was conducted using company documents, observation, a questionnaire and in-depth interviews. The questionnaire responses were qualitatively analysed using the categories of Hammer's model of enterprise capability. The research findings identified weaknesses in all categories of enterprise capability though expertise appeared to be thriving. The findings further suggest that weaknesses in leadership and the leadership style in particular impact on the effectiveness of business processes. The leadership style was seen as the major driver to impede process effectiveness. The following themes describing leadership style were derived from interviews: creation of sense of belonging, degree of approachability and extent of collaboration. In order to improve the BPM in the case company, the following recommendations were made: communication sessions, awareness training and process remodelling. The research study also provides the opportunity to understand BPM in a broader context, thus having potential for transferability to other organisations.

Is there balance in Business Process Management?

January 2012 (has links)
abstract: ABSTRACT There has been plenty written on the topic of process management in business. This study focuses more on the need to research and develop a model to establish "balance" in process. Reengineering process and investing capital into current technology does not improve the outcome of process alone. The actual process activity coupled with human interface combined with technology determines the outcome of processes, however they do not indicate whether it is a balanced process or not. Wherein the word balance really means sustainable for long periods of time and easily reproduced by others. This study argues for the need of new research in the topic matter and its affects on company profitability, sustainability over long periods of time and tenure with employee. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.S.

Integrating Business Process Management To Model Context In Healthcare: A Case Study Using Perioperative Processes

Harris, Amos January 2016 (has links)
A growing number of initiatives in recent studies have continued to pursue improvements in e-business through the use of Business Process Management (BPM) methods and tools. However there are still some limitations that need to be addressed. While BPM has been beneficial in healthcare, there are issues around context. These involve a clear need for approaches that facilitate the understanding of context when implementing healthcare processes. This thesis introduces a BPM framework and its supporting methodology for representing and modeling context for information systems design. Scenario compositions are developed as a mechanism for linking descriptive workflow information and graphical models representing many viewpoints involved in the system development and use processes. Design patterns are used as a common information platform to bridge different context representation formats. By combining scenarios and design patterns representing context, chains of relations between context, their triggering factors, and their influences on user actions can explicitly be described and modeled.

Diagnóstico em BPM: uma investigação longitudinal sobre os resultados da aplicação da árvore da realidade atual em uma UPC / BPM diagnostic: a longitudinal reserch on the application of the current reality tree in a CRU

Alves, Elisa França Leôncio 28 August 2017 (has links)
Dentre as fases do ciclo de vida do Gerenciamento de Processos de Negócios (BPM - Business Process Management), a fase de diagnóstico de processos pode facilitar a mudança de modo a fundamentar futuros esforços de aumento de produtividade, padronização da execução do trabalho e criação de uma rotina de trabalho mais eficiente. Como técnica de diagnóstico, a ARA (Árvore da Realidade Atual) é mais ampla pois demonstra a visão geral da situação da empresa. A pergunta de pesquisa que se pretende responder com este trabalho é: como o diagnóstico da Árvore da Realidade Atual pode promover melhorias em uma Unidade de Pesquisa Clínica (UPC)? O objetivo é analisar o relacionamento entre a aplicação do diagnóstico da ARA e as melhorias realizadas em uma UPC. Para tanto, foi utilizado como método um estudo de caso em uma UPC que utilizou ARA como técnica de diagnóstico precursora da implementação de melhorias organizacionais. Nos resultados deste estudo é apresentado o diagnóstico da ARA em uma UPC e são descritas as melhorias que ocorreram na organização a partir da aplicação desta técnica. Além disso, são identificados quais fatores de sucesso do BPM contribuíram para a aplicação da ARA. Conclui-se que a utilização da ARA como técnica de diagnóstico, além de fornecer uma análise que contempla as necessidades reais da organização, pode ser relacionada com o sucesso da implementação de melhorias. Este estudo deve fornecer subsídios aos gestores de UPCs em relação à efetividade das práticas administrativas passíveis a serem adotadas, além de ser importante para pesquisadores que atuam com diagnóstico de processos e BPM ao apresentar a efetividade da utilização da ARA como técnica e relacionar as melhorias obtidas com os fatores críticos de BPM. / Among the phases of the Business Process Management (BPM) lifecycle, the process diagnostics phase can facilitate the change in order to support future efforts to increase productivity, standardize the execution of work and create a more efficient work routine. As a diagnostic technique, CRT (Current Reality Tree) is broader because it demonstrates the overall picture of the company\'s situation. The research question that intends to answer with this work is: how the diagnosis of the Current Reality Tree can promote improvements in a Clinical Research Unit (CRU)? The objective is to analyze the relationship between the application of CTR diagnosis and the improvements performed in a UPC. For that, a case study was used as a method in a UPC that used CRT as diagnostic tool for the implementation of organizational improvements. The results of this study present the diagnosis of CRT in a CRU and describe the improvements that occurred in the organization from the application of this technique. In addition, it is identified which BPM success factors contributed to the application of ARA. It is concluded that the use of ARA as a diagnostic technique, besides providing an analysis that considers the real needs of the organization, can be related to the success of the implementation of improvements. This study should provide support to UPC managers concerning to the effectiveness of the administrative practices that may be adopted, and it is important for researchers working with process and BPM diagnoses to introduce the effectiveness of the use of ARA as a technique and to relate the improvements obtained with the critical BPM factors.

Modelo de estruturação de serviços de um escritório de processos aderente ao grau de maturidade em gestão de processos

Boer, Fernanda Gobbi de January 2014 (has links)
As empresas têm direcionado seus esforços para a gestão dos processos ao perceberem os benefícios que podem obter: otimização do trabalho, aumento da satisfação dos clientes e redução de custos são alguns dos ganhos percebidos. Também são atraídas pela visão abrangente proporcionada pela ótica dos processos, que permite a gestão eficaz de seu trabalho, o que as tornam mais competitivas. Porém, ao implantar a Gestão de Processos de Negócio (Business Process Management - BPM), os gestores não encontram uma base conceitual unificada que os orientem nesse sentido. O objetivo do presente trabalho é propor um Modelo de Avaliação de Maturidade em Gestão por Processos e um Modelo de Estruturação de Serviços de um Escritório de Processos. O modelo de avaliação de maturidade foi construído com foco nas práticas de governança em Gestão por Processos, tendo como base o referencial teórico. Esse foi ajustado através do diagnóstico de seis organizações que possuem implantados Escritórios de Processos. Já o modelo de estruturação de serviços foi desenvolvido a partir do referencial teórico e do estudo dos Escritórios de Processos das organizações que participaram de entrevistas, sendo ajustado através da sua aplicação nessas organizações. O Modelo de Avaliação de Maturidade em Gestão por Processos desenvolvido permite às organizações realizar um diagnóstico quanto à implantação da Gestão por Processos, para então, com o Modelo de Estruturação de Serviços de um Escritório de Processos identificar o portfólio de serviços que deve adotar para auxiliar sua evolução. Portanto, o presente trabalho contribui para a implantação da Gestão por Processos nas Organizações ao oferecer modelos de referência que permitam acompanhar sua evolução e planejar a estruturação dos serviços a serem prestados. / Companies have been driving their efforts to process management after realizing its benefits: work content optimization, customer satisfaction increase and cost reduction among others. They are also attracted by the broad overview provided by process perspective, which allows an efficient management of their work, and increase their competitiveness. However, when implementing Business Process Management - BPM, leaders do not find a unique concept that guide them in this direction. The goal of this work is to propose a Maturity Evaluation Model in Business Process Management and a Service Structure Build Model for a BPM Office (BPMO). The maturity evaluation model was built with focus on governance practices in Process Management based on theoretical framework. This was then validated through a diagnosis of six different organizations with implemented BPMO. The Service Structure Build Model was developed based on theoretical framework as well and appraisal of the same six organizations with implemented BPMO, being validated through its applications. The developed Maturity Evaluation Model in Process Management allows the organization to diagnose the implementation of the Process Management. This, together with the Service Structure Build Model for a BPM Office, help the organization to identify the service portfolio that must be adopted to support its evolution. Therefore, the current work contributes to the implementation of Business Process Management in Organizations by offering reference models to accompany its evolution and to plan to build the services to be offered.

Da administração legal ao business process management : o mapeamento de processos de negócio em escritórios de advocacia

Agostini, Manuela Rösing 30 September 2010 (has links)
Esse trabalho aborda a Administração Legal como uma ferramenta capaz de orientar e conduzir as organizações prestadoras de serviços jurídicos rumo à inovação e à competitividade, em conjunto com a aplicação da metodologia Business Process Management (BPM) como opção alternativa na busca pela vantagem competitiva sustentável. Alinhando essas duas abordagens, a Administração Legal e o BPM, o objetivo deste trabalho é identificar os principais processos de negócio que compõem a estrutura de um escritório de advocacia. Uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativo-exploratória e quantitativo-descritiva foi realizada, sendo as estratégias metodológicas desenvolvidas em três fases. A primeira fase de coleta de dados envolve a identificação dos critérios e fundamentos terminológicos do contexto analisado, por meio da aplicação de três entrevistas individuais semi-estruturadas. Após a identificação do mapa das dimensões terminológicas, parte-se para a segunda fase da coleta de dados, a aplicação de um questionário estruturado, o qual foi aplicado nos escritórios certificados com a norma ISO 9001 no Brasil. Por meio da estatística descritiva foram identificados os principais processos de negócio que compõem a estrutura dos escritórios de advocacia, bem como seus processos de apoio. Os processos foram agrupados em quatro categorias para os processos principais e em seis categorias para os processos de apoio. / Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-06-02T19:56:42Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Manuela Rosing Agostini.pdf: 3064051 bytes, checksum: c1693d2047e5f6fca0b89ab26fe379cd (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2014-06-02T19:56:42Z (GMT).

Based on the application of both approaches together, i.e. Legal Administration and BPM, the aim of this research is to identify main business processes that make up the structure of a law firm. A qualitative-exploratory and quantitative-descriptive nature research was realized based on three main phases. The first phase involves identifying criteria and terminological basis within the context analyzed based on the application of three individual semi-structured interviews. After the identification of the terminology dimensions map, the second phase was the application of a structured questionnaire, which was applied on nine Law Firms, certified on ISO 9001, in Brazil. Based on descriptive statistics the main business processes that define the organizational structure of law firms, as well as their supporting processes were identified. The main business process were grouped in four categories and the support business processes were grouped in six categories.
