What is Business Process Modeling?

Business Process Modeling (BPM) aims to capture processes and interactions between different departments and identify unresolved issues and bottlenecks.

Business Process Model Structure

We can think of the process model as levels with a hierarchical structure that classifies all the organization’s processes to make it easier to optimize the results.

  • Mega process that forms the core value
  • Major process that represents a collection of sub processes
  • Sub process
  • Activity
  • Task which is performed to complete an activity.

Business Process Modeling tools and techniques

They are commonly used to denote intangible roles or behaviors desired in a company.

Flowcharts demonstrate the stages of a process in sequential order from input into the specific process to output.

They visualize how information moves from one place to another.

#4 Role Interaction Diagrams

These models demonstrate the interaction of various processes with each other in the system. There are two types of diagrams: Sequence diagrams and Collaboration diagrams.

#5 Gantt Charts

They show the total time spent on the project better than other options and track the project timeline.

#6 Colored Petri Nets

They categorize or highlight users, roots and complex workflow steps.

#7 Pert Charts

They not only show the critical path to be followed to achieve results but also help you define a realistic time frame for the process.

#8 UML Activity Diagram

Actually, it was created for the visualization, documentation and specification of software systems but now it is adapted to model business processes.
