bppm tool: Business Process Management (BPM) Bernhard Hitpass, 2014-07-07 Nowadays, an organization is expected to be not only effective and efficient, as it was formerly. Now, in addition, it should be able to adapt to the frequent changes driven by globalization, let us say, be agile. This business agility has become more important in these times of globalization. The organization that best respond to the fast-changing market, which is becoming increasingly frequent, will have better competitive advantages than those that fail to sustain the pace imposed by globalization. What are the tools that organizations are using to better achieving agility, effectiveness, and efficiency? The answer is more control and efficiency with the ability to manage change in their business processes, because these can create value for customers. BPM is an integrative discipline that comprises management disciplines and techniques. It involves the business layers and technology, including also management through processes, as an integrated whole. The structure of this book consists of two parts. «Part I, Fundamentals of BPM» describe the state of the art of the major BPM theoretical concepts. «Part II, Implementation for BPM» is dedicated to presenting the concepts of implementation, developed largely by the author. This second part considers the technological support in each of the BPM layers. The author shows how to implement the core principles of the discipline, which differs itself from traditional management. This book is for all professionals, whether they perform in the public, private or non-profits sectors who require or want to learn more about this process management discipline. It is also for students and academics of the industrial and computer sciences, and to all the business and administration Schools. |

bppm tool: Combining Business Process Management and Enterprise Architecture for Better Business Outcomes Claus T. Jensen, Owen Cline, Martin Owen, IBM Redbooks, 2011-03-31 This IBM® Redbooks® publication explains how to combine business process management (BPM) and Enterprise Architecture (EA) for better business outcomes. This book provides a unique synergistic approach to BPM and EA, based on a firm understanding of the life cycles of the enterprise and the establishment of appropriate collaboration and governance processes. When carried out together, BPM provides the business context, understanding, and metrics, and EA provides the discipline to translate business vision and strategy into architectural change. Both are needed for sustainable continuous improvement. This book provides thought leadership and direction on the topic of BPM and EA synergies. Although technical in nature, it is not a typical IBM Redbooks publication. The book provides guidance and direction on how to collaborate effectively across tribal boundaries rather than technical details about IBM software products. The primary audience for this book is leaders and architects who need to understand how to effectively combine BPM and EA to drive, as a key differentiator, continuous improvement and transformational change with enterprise scope. |

bppm tool: Agile Network Businesses Vivek Kale, 2017-07-20 A highly readable and yet comprehensive book on network businesses that have become governable with the advent of cloud and big data computing. Vivek Kale is a master of simplifying the complex world of network theory and its relevance to business. —Jagdish N. Sheth, Charles H. Kellstadt Professor of Marketing, Emory University Agile Network Businesses: Collaboration, Coordination, and Competitive Advantage reflects the shift from traditional networks to virtual and agile networks that enable businesses to operate dynamically, thereby representing markets more closely. This book enables IT managers and business decision-makers to understand clearly what network businesses and enterprises are, what they can do for them, and how to realize them. Customers in geographically dispersed markets are demanding higher quality products in a greater variety, at lower cost, and in a shorter time. Thus, enterprises have moved from a few centralized and vertically integrated facilities to geographically dispersed networks of capabilities, competencies and resources, which are the core of network businesses. Enterprises are now constructing more fluid network businesses in which each member facility focuses on differentiation and relies increasingly on its partners, suppliers, and customers to provide the rest. Network businesses have emerged as an organizational paradigm for collaboration and coordination across loosely connected individual organizations. This pragmatic book: Introduces network solutions and distributed systems that are a first step towards enabling a network enterprise. It also gives a detailed description of networks and agent system that have paved the road to network enterprises. Describes the basics of service-oriented architecture (SOA), cloud computing, and big data that are essential to network enterprises. Details the distinguishing aspects of network enterprises, which include virtual enterprises, management of network enterprises, and collaborative network enterprises. Covers such major application areas as supply, manufacturing, e-business, platform, social and wireless sensor networks. Introduces decision networks in the context of supply chain networks This book reinterprets the traditional supply chain in terms of the flow of decisions, information, and materials, which leads to reconfiguring the traditional supply chain network into mutually separate decision networks (e.g., fourth-party logistics or 4PL), information networks (e.g., wireless sensor networks), and logistics networks (e.g., third-party logistics or 3PL). |

bppm tool: Mastering Software Architecture Michael Carducci, 2025-03-20 As the pace of evolution in technology continues to accelerate, the field of software architecture grapples with ever-increasing complexity, uncertainty, and risk. While numerous patterns and practices have emerged as potential approaches to solving the industry’s most challenging problems, these tools often struggle to consistently deliver on their promises and software projects fail to reach their potential with alarming frequency. This meticulously crafted guide presents a deep exploration into the intricacies of crafting systems that precisely and predictably address modern challenges. It goes beyond mere comprehension of architecture; it encourages mastery. Mastery of software architecture requires much more than just technical know-how. The author, drawing upon deep experience and unique perspectives, introduces a fresh, problem-centric approach to the realm of software architecture to address these myriad challenges. This book offers a uniquely holistic approach, weaving together architectural principles with organizational dynamics, environmental subtleties, and the necessary tools to execute on architecture more effectively. It addresses the broader contexts that are often overlooked. You’ll be introduced to the transformative Tailor-Made model which provides fast, design-time feedback on total architectural fit and offers more deterministic outcomes, without the typical (and costly) trial-and-error. The Tailor-Made model further enables a practical approach to designing evolutionary architectures. This book also offers a comprehensive Architect's toolbox with powerful strategies and problem-solving tools to design, communicate, and implement architectural decisions across the enterprise. Additionally, it imparts invaluable insights into the art of communication as an architect, seamlessly aligning visions with business goals and objectives. With its rich blend of theoretical depth, practical insights, and actionable tools, this book promises to redefine the landscape of software architecture. Whether you are an established architect or an aspiring one, Mastering Software Architecture is poised to enhance your expertise, enabling you to confront architectural challenges with unparalleled confidence and competence. What You will Learn Discover a comprehensive set of concepts, tools, models, and practices that enhance the fit and reduce uncertainty in software architecture. Quantify and measure the impact of architectural decisions, providing a clear and actionable approach to architecture. Effectively apply the model in diverse situations and environments, while overcoming the otherwise-limiting organizational realities. Communicate architecture effectively to both business and technical teams, build consensus, engender buy-in, and lead change across the organization. Who This Book Is For Aspiring architects looking to broaden their horizons, practicing architects seeking to continue to grow their skills, and software engineers looking to gain insights and move up the value chain in an increasingly competitive market. Michael Carducci delivers an invaluable guide for aspiring and seasoned software architects alike. Mastering Software Architecture blends technical mastery with strategic insights, presented in a clear and engaging format. This book is destined to shape the future of the field.- Adam Tornhill, author of ‘Your code as a crime scene’ and founder of Code Scene BRAVO! This is the book I wish I had when I started doing architecture migrations. This volume makes clear what architectural style best fits the needs of the organization, and how you can migrate from one style to another through the judicious selection of constraints. I've already put this book's teachings into practice and consider this my new go-to reference for upcoming architecture assessments and migrations.- Jerome Broekhuijsen “Whether you’re a seasoned architect or just starting out, this book will elevate your practice. It’s a must-read that will take any aspiring architect from zero to hero in a very short time.” – Kevin D’Ornellas I'm convinced you'll be better prepared for having read this book- Brian Sletten |
