Assume an office

regulations can be consulted
Assume people are involved
Wait for a human interaction
Don’t act on your behalf
Present data but don’t use it

Management
Processes Make The App Part Of The Action
The same process accessed by any device, from
mobile to desktop
Mobile apps can be fully-functional participants in
a business process
Create, view and complete tasks
Information capture at the point of interaction
© Decision Management Solutions and Kemsley Design, 2016 15
Leverage Mobile Capabilities Within Process
Allow mobile workers to interact directly with
process
Avoid manual rekeying/synchronization of data
gathered in the field
Device-specific capture methods
Photographs/video as process attachments
GPS location to validate mobile users
