The document discusses agile business processes and process improvement. It begins with an agenda covering needs and challenges, process as a tool, and an agile approach to process improvement. It then discusses market trends driving the need for agile and adaptable processes. The presentation emphasizes that process improvement should be driven by business needs and objectives, with industry models and methodologies used as tools to guide improvements rather than ends in themselves. A multimodel approach is recommended to address different aspects of the business. The document provides a roadmap for conducting process improvements in an agile manner.

In recent years, concern for quality in the ICT sector has increased, so that many companies are looking for models and certifications that allow them to demonstrate to customers and to the market their commitment to quality, industry best practices and international standards.
The first decision to be taken by a company, that wants to implement an improvement program, is the choice of process model or standard to be used as roadmap on the path of continuous improvement. On some occasions, there may be no choice to be made because, the sector itself, the requirements of a government or of large buyers have already established which is the a reference model. However, in other cases, it is necessary to define what are the business objectives of the company, and then, define the improvement project and the process model that best fits their needs.
This presentation gives an overview of the components that are part of a successful improvement program and places special emphasis on the most recognized models in the market (EFQM, ISO 9001, COBIT, People CMM, CMMI, ITMARK, IDEAL), especially the scope and structure of each one. Exercises will be presented to reinforce the theory and allow interaction with participants.
David Pultorak ISECON 2007 Keynote: IT FrameworksDavid Pultorak
IT isn not just about technology and technical acumen. People—the jobs and roles people take on in IS, and Process—the key things that need to get done, like managing changes and problems and IT infrastructure configuration, are what constitute the professional disciplines of IS, and are vital to the success of IS professionals.
With the trend towards greater expectations from business of IS professionals to run IT as a business and to demonstrate business value, the need for professional discipline in IS is becoming more and more acute. Sadly, in too many cases the bulk of the coverage is on technical acumen, and we don't do enough to ensure staff acquire the professional disciplines—the people and process disciplines—they need to excel.
In this keynote session, noted speaker, author, and educator David Pultorak will present the most important frameworks for IT Management, frameworks that spell out the people and process disciplines, and potential value of each, and will go on to challenge our audience to include coverage of these frameworks. Frameworks covered will include:
AS 8015, ASL, BiSL, CobiT, eSCM, eTOM,
Generic Framework for Information Management (PrimaVera)
IPMA Competence Baseline, ISO/IEC 20000, (formerly BS15000)
ISO 27001 (ISO 17799/BS7799), ISO 9000 (GB/T 19000)
ISPL, IT Balanced Scorecard, ITIL, ITS-CMM, ITUP
MOF, MSF, PMBoK, PRINCE2, M_o_R, MSP, Six Sigma, TickIT, TQM

involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions

3. Agile business processes
Businesses are facing dramatic challenges during this decade, from economy, technology and
globalization. The business approaches that were successful a few years ago are no longer fit
for a rapidly changing environment. There are new players, different markets and greater new
opportunities. There is only one thing that will never change: to be a successful enterprise (a
survivor) you NEED to continuously optimize your productivity, improve quality, and to be one
step ahead of your competitors for satisfying your customers’ needs.
Mature processes are the basis to build a solid enterprise architecture, to optimize the
investment in technology and to obtain the best from the human talent. Well implemented
processes are a powerful tool to support business goals, capture know-how and to lower the
risk posed by expertise turnover.
The process need to be seen from a customer perspective, integrating the outputs of teams
and functional areas in order to deliver high-quality services and products. The industry seems
to be moving to adopt multimodel, pragmatic approaches oriented to measurable results.
Procesix 2011
In order to meet the need for highly efficient and adaptable practices, the industry is using
agile process management approaches without lowering maturity . Sound enterprise
architectures can use ready-to-use process solutions, using better the investment and
integrate business functions and customer.

• Models are not ends by itself

There is no such thing as a “universal model”
• They address different aspects of the business

33. Summary
Agile business processes
There is no magic book to provide solutions to the many
challenges of the TIC industry in the 2010’s decade
Nevertheless there are several models covering specific areas
and common problems of the business
Organizations are learning to adapt and integrate these models
to their specific needs
The industry is still waiting for a coherent vision to facilitate their
application
The needs for faster, cheaper, better software are the same as in
the past two decades, only that this time are much bigger
Agile approaches are powerful accelerators when used in a
mature process environment
