The document provides a comprehensive overview of Business Process Management (BPM), covering topics such as business process modeling, lifecycle management, and various BPM tools and methodologies. It discusses the integration of business process definitions, workflow engines, and diagramming tools, emphasizing the importance of standards like BPMN. Additionally, it outlines vendor implementations and features associated with BPM systems, including business activity monitoring and analytics.

11.  Role
 Technical writer
 Course Author
 Technical Architect
 Business Process Analyst

12.  Create a UML course
 UML
 Standard way to visualise system and software designs
 Best used for
 Object Orientated Analysis (OOA)
 Object Orientated Design (OOD)
 Object Oriented Programming (OOP)
 Model Driven Development (MDD)
 Model Driven Architecture (MDA)
 14 diagrams
 Support different perspectives

13.  Two types of diagramming tools
1. Draw diagrams (conceptual)
1. Possible invalid notation
2. Create valid diagrams
 Diagramming tool features
 Diagram notation
 Validation
 Code generation and integration

14.  Diagram Examples
 Class Diagram
 Use Case
 Activity
 Sequence

17.  Bi-directional Syncing the UML diagram with the source
 Reliably worked one way
 UML to source
 Less reliable from source to UML
 Model can quickly get out of date

21.  Success!
 Tool suite simple and effective
 Very Good Model driven support
 Excellent Integration
 Bug tracking and tickets
 Source code management
 Collaborative development environment

22.  Update BPM course(s)
 All six of them
 Write a white paper

23.  Knowledge: On the job exposure
 Business Analyst documenting the process
 Word
 Visio
 “ I don’t like green eggs and ham”

24.  Lengthy word document
 Diagram – non standard notation or hybrid notation

26.  Reviewing the documentation
 Read “diagram business process … and run it”

27.  3+ days to build configure BPMS
 Supports a Enterprise environment

30.  Business process diagram (BPD)
 Participants
 Business data
 Activity Forms (UI)
 Integrated BPD

32.  Auto generated Activity Forms
 Workflow engine assigned tasks to each participant
 Agent
 Underwriter
 Accounting
 Repeat

33. Programmed Applications BPM Application

34.  Participants Options
 Accept Task
 Decline Task
 Delegate Task
 Start Task (accurate measurement)
 Pause Task
 Complete Task

35. Specifications
Vendor Implementations

36.  Diagramming
 BPMN - OMG Group
 File format
 XPDL (XML Process Definition Language) - Workflow management group
 No Vendor Lock in
 Vendor Implementations
 Closely follow specifications
 Mostly based on BPMN 1.0

37.  Comprised of two parts
1. Diagrammed Business Process
2. BPMS configuration (vendor specific)

39.  Vendor specific
 Examples drawn from
 Bonitasoft
 Interstage BPM
 Oracle BPM

41.  Follows either BPMN 1.0 or 2.0
 BPMN like notation
