Business Process

Set of activities that will accomplish a specific goal Business Process Set of activities that will accomplish a specific goal Manual, computerized, or mix

Addresses What information is needed? Where does it come from? What needs to be done with it? Who has to process it? What is the flow of information? What is the expected output? How does it need to be presented? Is it a single process or multiple ones? What triggers the start(s)? What marks the end?

Why bring it up? Historically, 523 projects had a well designed or envisioned process USER STORIES are typically reflecting things that are already being done – just manually or inefficiently This year, I am seeing projects that do not understand their business process. This needs to be captured in order to build useful software

What are teams to do? Is the goal of your project to Create a new process? Automate an existing process? Improve a process? Is the business process you are part of well defined? Can you articulate it? Will your client agree with your description?

If there is a need for clarification Flowchart Follow the data Understand information transformations Inputs Outputs
