Tenets Visibility Accountability Adaptability Attributes Explicit business process models. Into the flow and status of work. To all process participants. All phases of process life cycle. Into metrics and true business performance. Policies and constraints Business leaders own process change, not IT. Eliminate cross-functional responsibility gaps. Clear line of sight for metrics and outcomes. At the pace of business, versus IT delivery cycles. "Build to change" mentality. Continuous process improvement. 2

The Process of Process Management Is a cycle of Continuous Process Improvement (CPI). CPI drives business agility the ability of an enterprise to sense and respond effectively and efficiently to market dynamics. An integrated suite of BPM tools can make this cycle fluid (seamless) and enable business and IT roles to collaborate on a "build to change" approach to applications.

The Changing Nature of Work 8

Question: Are Some Kinds of Work Immune to Industrialization? Routine work Mechanization... assembly line process modeling... automation Nonroutine work Ad hoc execution task-specific management Productivity Quality Consistency Scalability High marginal costs High management overhead Unpredictability Inconsistency

Common Work Styles Nonroutine work Unstructured Process Routine work (Cannot be planned in advance; uncertain; hard to automate) Structured process (Can be planned in advance; predictable; repeatable; can be automated) Formdriven workflow Straightthrough processing Guided navigation Case management Problem solving Innovation and discovery Permit requests Mortgage origination University admissions Bank acct. opening Hospital admission Self-service check-out Service request handling Determining optimal pricing Crew scheduling Stock trading Insurance claims Social services benefits Fraud detection Criminal investigations Medical diagnosis Workforce allocation Budgeting Emergency management New product research Scientific discovery Business transformation Strategic planning

Conventional Limits to Automating Nonroutine Work Definitely automate Maybe automate Avoid automation? Automation costs increase due to exceptions and complexity Routine work Nonroutine work Variability, creativity, social intelligence Automation benefits decrease due to lack of repeatability

Case Management Solution Design Is Architecturally Challenging

Case Management Solution Design Is Architecturally Challenging Workflows are complex, recursive, parallel. Lots of conditional logic. BPMN diagrams become unwieldy. Cases have a lot of data (and unstructured data!) Cases often have relationships to other cases! Case workers may be resistant to ANY automation.

What Is Big Change? Zone of Big Change Novelty This is a well-known best practice. We've never done this before. Nobody has ever done this before. Volatility Stable environment with a slow predictable pace of change. Our people and systems barely keep up with the pace of change. Our people and systems can't keep up with the pace of change. Disruption This isn't disruptive. We just need to do what we already do but do it better. This is enormously disruptive to our business operations. This completely disrupts our business operations, business model and value chain and potential existence. Complexity of Scope Few entities with few moving parts. Strategy-to-execution must deal with a moderate number of entities. Strategy-to-execution involves numerous entities with multiple moving parts.
