Collaborative Process Modeling
l Multiple people participate in process discovery, modeling and documentation
l Internal and external participants
l Technical and non-technical participants
l Preserves institutional memory
l Facilitates cross-silo collaboration and innovation

Process Event Streams
l Timeline of activity for social monitoring
l Process models during creation
l Process instances during execution
l Publish/subscribe model to “watch” certain
processes or event types
l Direct link to underlying process model or
instance for unsolicited participation
l Usually mobile-enabled

Characterizing The Extremes
Routine Work
l A priori process model
l Controlled participation
l Automatable, especially
with service integration,
rules and events
Knowledge Work
l No a priori model
l Collaboration on demand
l Little automation, but
guided by rules and
events

The Structured/Unstructured
Debate
If you can’t model it up front, you just don’t understand
the process
Exceptions are the new normal: every process is different
Copyright Kemsley Design Ltd., 2011 12
![Page 13: Emerging BPM Technologies](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042700/554927b2b4c9054c498bcc49/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
But It’s Not That Simple
Structured Work
l Some process are that
repeatable, especially
automated processes
l Ad hoc process
exceptions already exist,
they’re just off the grid
Unstructured Work
l Some processes have
sufficient variability that
modelling is inefficient
l Instrumentation of
unstructured processes
provides value

Structure Spectrum
Structured
• e.g., automated regulatory process
Structured with ad hoc exceptions
• e.g., financial back-office transactions
Unstructured with pre-defined fragments
• e.g., insurance claims
Unstructured
• e.g., investigations

Dynamic Process Runtime
l User can add participants from own
network or recommended expert
l Non-participant can opt-in to process
l Audit trail captured within BPMS
l Eliminates uncontrolled email
processes
l Captures patterns for
process improvement

l Actual flows, not idealized models
l Frequency and duration of each path
l Optimization:
l Detect main flows and common variations
l Detect loopbacks and other inefficiencies
l Detect wait times
l Analyze variations over time

Why Predictive Processes?
“Predictive analytics is not just about
forecasting what’s coming down the pike.
It’s also about keeping the bad alternative
futures from happening.”

What You Can Do With
Process Analytics
l Information to support manual decisions
l E.g., display queue sizes to help manager to
reallocate work
l Data to trigger automated actions
l E.g., spawn fraud detection process when
series of events occur for same customer
l Predict missed SLAs
l E.g., compare history of activity timeline to
estimate overall time to completion

Focus On The Goal, Not The Task
l Compare:
l Current to baseline model
l Current to historical
l Analyze:
l Process dependencies and critical path
l Simulate to identify future problems
l Act:
l Self-adjust through feedback to decisioning
l In-process user guidance
