As the article " Kick-Off: BPM Scrum + "has published the friend Jacob on bpm guide.de we wanted examples of different" patterns "bring. A sprint in Scrum is to last between one and a maximum of 4 weeks. Therefore, it may be necessary to decompose a process into smaller units to these units to be able to edit in the sprints. Since the result of a sprint a "runnable shippable product" should be, must be large processes divided so that these sub-processes can be useful and rolled out as independently as possible. Following my example of the dismantling of processes with multiple parallel process trains. (more ...)

I have frequent experience with a very long projects on Business Process Management made. Primarily through the cooperation of many departments in an end-to-end process is a process getting bigger and more difficult-overdue project. Although many activities in the process often been fully clarified and may have even been developed already completed the process can not be imported because somewhere a little activity must be coordinated. Through an agile approach would allow all activities to be implemented more quickly and clear the desired result could adjust more quickly. Therefore, the issue of Scrum is very interesting, but not easy. Scrum was originally designed for software development and not for BPM projects. My first thoughts on this combination, I have described here in the blog before (see Part 1 and Part 2 ). The same ideas have also Dr. Martin Bartonitz of Saperion and friend Jacob made ​​from camunda. To get us to exchange and discuss the combination of Scrum and BPM, we have held a small workshop with James in Berlin. The results of our first workshops are on bpm guide.de and looked up in the forum of the BPM network are discussed. I'm looking forward to the feedback in the forum.

But nevertheless, this point often leads to projects that fail. I want it to represent something visually, and therefore call it the rabbit problem. (more ...)

Intalio announced yesterday that you now participate as a member of the OMG Finalization Task Force on the adoption of the upcoming BPMN 2.0 specification. ( Source )

How will then after the adoption of the spec. Intalio BPMS that develop?

So far, Intalio BPMN and BPEL uses for the modeling of the process design ( here ). Ismael Gahlimi had this been a clear position with BPMN alone can no processes are running. It lacks the technical information in the process model. ( Why BPEL Matters ). That is also correct. But this clear commitment to BPMN 2.0, and thus next opportunity BPMN process models directly execute in a BPMN process engine that could lead to Intalio disregards the future of the problematic transformation from BPMN to BPEL and the pure BPMN BPM system further developed. I'm curious ...
