Since the merge there are several efforts in MEO to simplify and
converge our internal processes and our information systems
However, on the point of sale we needed a specific tool to help the
staff members. We created SHOP Box

HOW WE IMPLEMENT WORKFLOWS
Technical team develop artifacts. Each artifact
does a unitary action on a legacy system
Non-technical team develops workflows. Each
workflow uses the artifacts delivered by the
technical team. Each workflow represents a
different business case

Note: This analysis was made considering the shops that have SHOP Box and comparing the customers that were looked after with
SHOP Box versus the customers that were looked after without SHOP Box
23. 22
HOWEVER THERE IS STILL A LONG WAY TO GO
1) The workflows will be further optimized to reduce the time to look after customers
2) They will be also further optimized to enlarge the front office resolution
3) SHOP Box is so far on 20 of our 275 MEO Shops
4) We continually improving the solution to minimize errors

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
Reduce the amount of errors
Expand SHOP Box to all Shops until the end of 2015
Implement this concept on other areas in PT (call center,
back-offices, etc.)
Thank you for having us in Lisbon for the second year in a row. We’re delighted to be here with our customer, Goncalo Mendes from Portugal Telecom, who will talk about their BPM case study, their BPM journey with PNMsoft. For history buffs, this is the Belem Tower, that is the equivalent to Lisbon of what Big Ben is for London and what the Eiffel Tower is for Paris.
So before I pass the baton to Goncalo I’ll tell you in a couple of minutes who we are and what we do (in case you were wondering, that is). PNMsoft will be 20 years old in 2016 and we are a supplier of Intelligent Business Process Management Solutions. We have offices in New Jersey, London, Tel Aviv & Haifa…and we have one here in Lisbon too! Our customers come from Fortune 500 and Global 2000 backgrounds, and we also work with the public sector such as eSPap here in Portugal (their case study was presented in this conference last year). You can see in the slide behind me a few logos that you probably recognize. Gartner named us a Cool vendor to start with, and we have been in the Magic Quadrant for iBPMS for several years now. We also have a very closely-knit relationship with Microsoft and our other credentials include kudos from Bloor Research and IDC, among many others.
And in just three sentences this is what makes us different. Quite a few speakers today, like Ann Marie and Roger, spoke about change. Need for change. Resistance to Change. Big Change. Our mantra is SMALL STEPS – BIG CHANGE, and what makes this a reality is our unique HOTCHANGE technology, backed by our EVOLUTIONARY BPM METHODOLOGY – our spin on AGILE. A technology that allows you to make changes on the fly, and keep improving your business processes until they’re 100% perfect. It enables continual change and supports the business improvement lifecycle for every enterprise.
So THANK YOU for these 5 minutes and without further ado, I give Goncalo Mendes from Portugal Telecom

(30 seconds)
(1 minute)
Explain that SHOP Box is a framework to help the shop staff members to attend MEO’s customers.
Explain that SHOP Box was designed to be similar to the VoC
So how this works?
-Staff member as to choose the business case that brought the client to our store
- Staff member should identify the customer
-Staff member will received basic information of the customer
-Based on this data the BPM engine will walkthrough the staff member to the solution. This is done interacting with legacy systems trough web services or trough applications front end. The interactions with the front end are done with Microsoft CCA.
(1:30 minute)
Explain that we have the VoC
Explain the basic client information (explain that this information is brought by WS)
(1 minute)

(3) The ability to see and measure what each person do on each step. These information has a huge potential to improve our workflows.
(1 minute)
Explain that this slide is too technical to me
Explain that we are using a virtualized environment
Explain that there are two ways to interact with legacy systems
-by front end (trough MSFT CCA)
-by webservices that are all concentrated on a Bus
(2 minutes)
Explain that there are 2 teams involved
Explain that during the project phase the technical team was Accenture
Explain that now the technical team is formed by persons from PT’s IT department
Explain that artifacts are Sequence workflows
-can be essentially WS calls
-can be essentially front end interactions
-can be a group of action only on Sequence
Explain the role of each team
(1:30 minute)
30 seconds
Explain that this reduction of time have an impact of around 240k€/year
And could have an impact of 240k€/year
(1minute)
Explain that workflows were implemented based on the processes before SHOP Box.
Before SHOP Box the complexity on the shop had to be minimized (staff member couldn’t handle processes too complex)
Stress out the second item – it is a large issue to reduce costs on PT’s
(2:30 minutes)
Reduce the percentage of errors to 10% of it in two months
Reduce the percentage of errors to 5% of it in four months
Expand SHOP Box to all Shops until the end of the year
When it is a stabilized framework start implement it on other units on PT’s (call centers, backoffices, etc.)
