The establishment of successful business models requires the specification and implementation of suitable and appropriate business processes models as well as supporting information systems. For the accomplishment of customer requirements, business models have to be integrated inter- and intra-organisational to reconcile resources and expertise customer oriented. Within business process management, methods, models and tools are developed address business requirements concerning strategic, analytic, design-oriented and implementation specific aspects of business processes. Therefore, business process management contributes to establishing different kinds of business models. This raises issues of holistic, integrated examination as well as the implementation and establishment of business process management life cycle. The modelling of business processes is of significant importance here since models are used in different stages of the life cycle.
The coordination of business processes and information systems is facilitated by the management of the enterprise architecture. More so, models are used to perceive, to plan, and to develop enterprise architectures. The enterprise architecture management defines the transformation path and adjusts it continuously in order to support planning and prioritisation of projects and programs. Thus, the management of the enterprise architecture and the business processes are closely interconnected.
This track provides a panel for management approaches and methods for the control of enterprise architectures and business processes with respect to the evaluation and development of their performance and efficiency.
