Download or read book Business Processes for Business Communities written by Frank Schönthaler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-03-14 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a brief introduction to the topic of business process modeling, the book offers a quick-start into model-based business process engineering. After that, the foundations of the modeling languages used are conveyed. Meaningful examples are in the foreground - each of the underlying formalisms is treated only as far as needed. Next the Horus Method is described in detail. The book defines a sequence of activities which finally leads to the creation of a complete business process model. The Horus Method, incidentally, is not bound to the use of the Horus software tools. It can be used with other tools or, if necessary, be used even without tool support. Important application fields of business process engineering are described, where the spectrum ranges from business process reengineering to the development and implementation of information systems. The book concludes with an outlook on the future of business process engineering and highlights current research activities in the area.
Download or read book Successful Software Reengineering written by Valenti, Salvatore and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2001-07-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Software process reengineering has become highly visible over the past several years. Efforts are being undertaken by organizations of all types and sizes as they attempt to deal with the challenges of quality, complexity and competitiveness. As an emerging technology, the effectiveness and potential impact of process improvement efforts have been debated, but not fully tested or validated. At the very core of this technological evolution is the idea that the quality of a software product is highly dependent on the quality of the process used for its development. Successful Software Reengineering examines the most recent theories, models, approaches and processes involved with the concept of software improvement and reengineering.
Download or read book Business Process Engineering written by D. Jack Elzinga and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to growing concern about the competitiveness of industry in the international marketplace and the efficiency ofgovernment enterprises, widespread initiatives are currently underway to enhance thecompetitive posture offirms and to streamline government operations. Nearly all enterprises are engaged in assessing ways in which their productivity, product quality and operations can be improved. These efforts canbe described as Business Process Engineering (BPE). BPE had its roots in industry under differing titIes: Process Improvement, Process Simplification, Process Innovation, Reengineering, etc. It has matured to be an important ingredient of successful enterprises in the private and public sectors. After extensive exploitation by industrial and governmental practitioners and consultants, it is attracting increasing attention from academics in the fields of engineering and business. However, even with all of this attention in the popular literature, serious scholarly literature on BPE is in short supply. TItis is somewhat surprising, especially since so many large international organizations have attempted BPE projectswith varied success.

Download or read book Enterprise Ontology written by Jan Dietz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-05-16 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If one thing catches the eye in almost all literature about (re)designing or (re)engineering of enterprises, it is the lack of a well-founded theory about their construction and operation. Often even the most basic notions like "action" or "process" are not precisely defined. Next, in order to master the diversity and the complexity of contemporary enterprises, theories are needed that separate the stable essence of an enterprise from the variable way in which it is realized and implemented. Such a theory and a matching methodology, which has passed the test of practical experience, constitute the contents of this book. The enterprise ontology, as developed by Dietz, is the starting point for profoundly understanding the organization of an enterprise and subsequently for analyzing, (re)designing, and (re)engineering it. The approach covers numerous issues in an integrated way: business processes, in- and outsourcing, information systems, management control, staffing etc. Researchers and students in enterprise engineering or related fields will discover in this book a revolutionary new way of thinking about business and organization. In addition, it provides managers, business analysts, and enterprise information system designers for the first time with a solid and integrated insight into their daily work.

Download or read book Enabling Systematic Business Change written by Volker Bach and published by Springer-Verlag. This book was released on 2013-03-13 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increasing number of companies regard Business Process Redesign (BPR) as a significant means of improving their competitive position. The initial euphoria is being superseded by a more pragmatic assessment. This book demonstrates how a systematic, practical yet creative procedure can lead to more reliably successful BPR projects. Case studies and investigations support the superiority of a systematic, method-based approach as opposed to an "intuitive" one.Consequently, before the start of a project a method must be selected which corresponds to the strategic goals of the project and is suited to the company environment. This book formulates the central principles and criteria for this, which are derived from practical experience. A procedural model and checklists help the reader to define what he requires from the method. From these criteria are then derived suitable BPR tools. Of particular importance here is the underlying cost-benefit analysis.The book describes over a dozen BPR methods and as many tools within a uniform framework. This ensures comparability and allows correlation with project-specific requirements. Particular attention is paid to method-tool combinations that are designed for combined use.Immer mehr Unternehmen sehen im Business Process Redesign (BPR) ein wesentliches Mittel, ihre Wettbewerbsfähigkeit zu steigern. Die anfängliche Euphorie weicht heute einer sachlicheren Betrachtung. Das Buch zeigt auf, warum ein systematisches, ingenieurmäßiges, aber gleichzeitig kreatives Vorgehen sicherer zu erfolgreichen BPR-Projekten führt.Fallstudien und empirische Untersuchungen untermauern die Überlegenheit des systematischen, methodisch unterstützten gegenüber dem "intuitiven" Ansatz. Dementsprechend ist vor Projektbeginn eine Methode auszuwählen, die der strategischen Zielsetzung des Projekts entspricht und in das Unternehmensumfeld paßt. Das Buch formuliert dafür die zentralen, aus der Praxis abgeleiteten Grundsätze und Kriterien. Ein Vorgehensmodel
