This demonstration scenario involves numerous BPMN software vendors collaborating to create a BPMN model and then have it execute on various BPMN engines. Confirmed participating software vendors to this event include: Trisotech, Omny Link, Signavio, W4, Camunda, Softeam, BOC Group, Itp commerce, ESTECO and Model Foundry. “Organizations around the world are increasingly investing in capturing process models using BPMN, these capability demonstrations help guide end user organizations in selecting software vendors that ensure perenniality via interchangeability of these models” said Denis Gagné, Chair of BPMN MIWG and CEO/CTO of Trisotech.

1. BPMN Interchange
Capability Demonstration

2. Problem
BPMN diagrams created in different tools are not interchangeable with
other tools and platforms
BPMN Interchange
The BPMN specification provides a standardized Notation, standardized
Semantics, and a standardized File Format
Models not pictures
Solution
OMG BPMN Model Interchange Working Group (BPMN MIWG)

3. Purpose
The purpose of the BPMN MIWG is to support, facilitate,
and promote the interchange of BPMN Models.
