Incremental transformation to
#digital (explicit and
executable) processes
Alexander SAMARIN
• All the processes within an enterprise form a complex
structure
• Often this structure is considered as a pure hierarchy
• In the reality, this structure is an almost hierarchical with
some networking
• Classic processes are coordinated via events – see
http://improving-bpm-
systems.blogspot.ch/2014/03/enterprise-as-system-of-
processes.html
• The majority of classic processes are constructed from a
limited set of process patterns
• Automated activities raise around human activities

Five lenses for business processes
Classic values-streams with their phases (if any) and main
capabilities
Clusters as coordination (primarily event-based) of classic
processes, almost no routing logic
Classic processes as coordination of stages (logical
fragments, often process patterns)
Instrumentation with automated activities
L1
Value-
steams
L2 Clusters-of-
processes
L3 Coordination of
fragments
L4 Coordination of activities
L5 Automation of activities and processes
Fragments as coordination of human activities (with
associated roles); use of process patterns

Combination of approaches
Departmental projects to
implement processes of a
particular business domain
with a BPM-suite tool.
Quick enterprise-wide “landscape”
project to develop L1 and L2
processes and establish common
practices (modelling procedures,
patterns, etc.).

Events to link not yet executable and
already executable processes
Explicit but not yet executable L2
processes can be used to extract
business events. Some of those events
can initiate explicit and executable
processes L3, L4 and L5.

Events are very useful
Explicit but not yet executable L2
processes can be used to extract business
events for generating KPIs and for
detecting performance problems
(bottlenecks, etc.) via process mining
techniques.
