8. Difficulty Level and Our Resolution
โข Learning a BPM tool is not easy
โ Structured modeling (ARIS) vs. unstructured
modeling (Visio without plug-ins that now provide
a structured modeling approach)
โข Re-educating analysts to think structurally
with new modeling concepts took a while
โข Yet, one repository-one tool has made the
difference

Processes
โข The Sage CRE Process Model is an iterative
process that applies to all product lines and
drives towards a consistent application of this
framework across the organization.

upon, process that:

โ establishes expectations for required deliverables and
their quality
โ creates consistency in what we measure and how we
evaluate a projectโs status and success
โ provides a basis from which we can learn from each
other
โ improves the process in a continuous fashion
