As in the article " Kick-Off: BPM + Scrum "published on the James Friend bpm guide.de we wanted to examples of different" patterns "bring. A sprint in Scrum is to last between 1 and a maximum of 4 weeks. Therefore, it may be necessary to divide a process into smaller units to these units work in the sprints to. As the result of a sprint a "shippable executable product" should be, must be divided so large processes 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. Mainly through the cooperation of many departments in an end-to-end process is a process increasingly larger and more heavily-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 more activity will be coordinated. With an agile approach would allow all activities to be implemented more quickly and clear the desired result could be adjusted 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 already described in the blog (see Part 1 and Part 2 ). The same ideas have also Dr. Martin Bartonitz of Saperion and friend Jacob made ​​from camunda. For us to discuss and share the combination BPM Scrum and we 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.

Nevertheless, this point always leads to the fact that projects fail. I want to show 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 )

As will be after the adoption of the spec. Intalio BPMS that develop?

So far, Intalio BPMN and BPEL uses for modeling for 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 of BPMN to BPEL and a pure BPMN BPM system further developed. I'm curious ...

Amazon delivered in time for the weekend, my new " Practical Guide BPMN "by Jakob Freund, Bernd Rücker and Thomas Henninger . Within hours, I had devoured the book. It contains concentrated information on BPMN 1.2 and 2.0. The information shows the reader with many examples. (more ...)
