Choosing approach to business process modeling-practical perspective (original) (raw)

One of the essential parts of a business process modeling project is choosing an approach to modeling and/or modeling notation/tool. The selection of a "right for the task" approach can substantially increase chances for success. To ensure the "right" choice, the following three sets of factors should be considered: (a) properties of modeling objects, i.e. business processes, (b) characteristics of the modeling environment, (c) intended use of the model. The paper is devoted to the analysis of these factors. It presents a simplified classification of the approaches to business process modeling. It lists the most essential properties of various business processes, it classifies modeling environments, and it discusses some practical tasks where the business process model can be used. Based on the analysis, practical recommendations on what approach to choose are given.
