Solution Architecture And (Robotic) Process Automation SolutionsAlan McSweeney
Automation is a technology trend IT architects should be aware of and know how to respond to business requests as well as recommend automation technologies and solutions where appropriate. Automation is a bigger topic than just RPA (Robotic Process Automation).
Automation solutions, like all other technology solutions, should be subject to an architecture and design process. There are many approaches to and options for the automation of business activities. Too often automation solutions are tactical applications layered over existing business systems
The objective of all IT solutions is to automate manual business processes and their activities to a certain extent. The requirement for RPA-type applications arises in part because of automation failures within existing applications or the need to automate the interactions with or integrations between separate, possibly legacy, applications.
One of the roles of IT architecture is to always seek to take the wider architectural view and to ensure that solutions are designed and delivered within a strategic framework to avoid, as much as is practical and realistic, short-term tactical solutions and approaches that lead to an accumulation of design, operations and support debt. Tactical solutions will always play a part in the organisation’s solution landscape.
The objective of these notes is to put automation into its wider and larger IT architecture context while accepting the need for tactical approaches in some instances.
These notes cover the following topics:
• Solution And Process Automation – The Wider Technology And Approach Landscape
• Business Processes, Business Solutions And Automation
• Organisation Process Model
• Strategic And Tactical Automation
• Deciding On The Scope Of Automation
• Digital Strategy, Digital Transformation And Automation
• Specifying The Automation Solution
• Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN)
• Sample Business Process – Order To Cash
• RPA (Robotic Process Automation)
Our business partner and insurance operations expert, Rob Berg, will show you how he helped a major insurance company reducing costs and cycle time using Trisotech Digital Enterprise Suite through process simulation.
In this webinar, analysts, architects and other subject matter experts will learn how to:
- Generate defensible data to make clear and objective decisions
- Accurately model the way things are and the way you would like them to be
- Apply real-life data to process models
- Bring a static model to life by simulating the impact of process changes
The path to a better bottom line is paved by large numbers of operational decisions made by people, by processes and by software applications. Systematically improving each operational decision – at scale – is at the core of Decision Management. Business Architects and Analysts identify, describe and model operational decisions in Decision Discovery.
In this webinar, James Taylor, CEO of Decision Management Solutions, and Dr. Juergen Pitschke, Founder and Managing Director at BCS, will show you how to get started with Decision Management on your next application development or business process improvement project with Decision Discovery. Learn how to:
Identify decisions, sub-decisions and information and knowledge resources (including rules and analytics)
Describe decisions in detail (Decision Tables and other Metaphors)
Model decisions in a DMN-conformant decision modeling tool for communication and documentation

Technology Buying for Marketers:Best Practices for Picking the Right VendorsAudienceScience
As marketing goes increasingly digital, marketers are tasked with buying more marketing technology than ever before. But for many marketers today, vetting, selecting and onboarding new technologies can be a complicated, time-consuming, costly process – and one that doesn’t always end with ideal results. Still, there’s a better way for marketers to approach buying technology. By using enterprise best practices honed over decades by colleagues in IT and procurement, marketers can create a better, quicker, and more cost-effective buying process.
Key points will include:
- Why marketers need to engage IT early in the technology buying process and what risks come from delaying IT involvement.
- What role finance, procurement and other enterprise stakeholders can best play in the buying process and how marketers can make the most of their expertise.
- How to best gather business and technology requirements and how to craft an effective RFP template.

It can be a long process, and it can seem endless without the right preparation. To help simplify the process, read our quick tips below to help you choose the right solution for your company!
Investing in an ERP is a big decision, predominantly due to the time, cost and other resources involved. It is thus obvious that when you invest a large chunk of your capital in buying an ERP solution, your vendor should be equally good. This presentation will direct you through a systematic ERP vendor selection procedure and will help you to choose the best ERP vendor for your business operations.
Energy Shift
Past
Rewind to two months back. We didn’t “have time” to “think about” how our TA teams were structured or the TA tech we were using. Emphatically speaking, understanding our process or how it may be affected by one swift downturn was not something we were concerned with.
Present
Until now.
We are listening. We’ve heard the RecruitingDaily audience, loud and clear over the last few weeks.
Many companies that we’ve heard from (and there’s been plenty) are simply not equipped to handle a swift change to a once comfortable environment in Talent Acquisition.
The problem? TA Tech and Process.
Does our tech align with our strengths?
Will it exploit our weaknesses?
Is our process meaningful and does it create a wonderful candidate experience?
We are going to help you navigate these questions.
Specifically:
Understanding yourself and where you need to enhance your strengths and/or shore up your weaknesses
Interpret your team’s alignment, how they collaborate, how the workflow works or doesn’t with regards to your team
Outlining your processes, how they’re linked or not, how to effectively audit said processes, how to continually make workflow and quality the responsibility of everyone and of course…
Discovering how talent acquisition technology, from sourcing to programmatic ad buying to recruitment marketing to creating a wonderful candidate experience, works or doesn’t work.
Future
We’ll give actionable advice on all four fronts. You’ll leave the webinar inspired to invest in yourself, your TA team, your TA processes, and your TA technology.

Many projects require items or services that cannot be provided from within the organization. In these cases it is necessary for the project team to procure the necessary items or services required to successfully complete the project. This section should provide a high-level explanation of purpose of the Procurement Management Plan. Generally, the purpose of the Procurement Management Plan is to define what items will be procured for the project and how vendors will be identified, selected, and managed. Additionally, the plan should outline roles and responsibilities relating to procurement as well as any contract requirements which must be met.
The purpose of the Procurement Management Plan is to define procurement parameters for the Software Upgrade Project in order to ensure its successful completion. Procurement is a deliberate process which involves many internal departments as well as external vendors. This Procurement Management Plan has been created to provide a framework in which all procurement actions will be managed across all of the organizations involved.
2.0 Procurement Roles and Responsibilities
This section describes the roles and responsibilities of all key project personnel as they relate to procurement actions. These roles must be clear to prevent any gaps or overlap in project procurement actions. Additionally, roles and responsibilities help establish accountability throughout the project’s lifecycle.
To facilitate effective procurement management, the following roles and responsibilities have been established for all procurement actions for the Software Upgrade Program:

Infamous data leaker IntelBroker posted on the even more infamous BreachForums hacking forum, saying that Europol suffered a data breach this month.
The alleged breach affected Europol agencies CCSE, EC3, Europol Platform for Experts, Law Enforcement Forum, and SIRIUS. Infiltration of these entities can disrupt ongoing investigations and compromise sensitive intelligence shared among international law enforcement agencies.
However, this is neither the first nor the last activity of IntekBroker. We have compiled for you what happened in the last few days. To track such hacker activities on dark web sources like hacker forums, private Telegram channels, and other hidden platforms where cyber threats often originate, you can check SOCRadar’s Dark Web News.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
