Evolving Business Process Models into Active Prototypes
Presented by: Barbara Harper, Benjamin Johnson Ward
AS IS and TO BE Business Process Models are excellent for presenting the current and future desired state, but they are static pictures. I will show you how to make each path through a business process model come alive with realistic data and transformations that show the results of each decision gateway. As an agile team member with a strong business analysis background, I don't create elaborate models for posterity. I want the team to be able to maintain a model that reflects what we built in the last sprint, guides us to the desired result in the current sprint, and helps us focus on adding value for the customers in future sprints. A business process model diagram and description in a repository or document goes stale. A business process model that evolves with the product provides benefits to stakeholders throughout the product lifecycle.
Learning Objectives:
- Recast a business process model from a static picture to an active demo.
- Transform data, show results, and build test scenarios as you flow through a business process.
- Keep business process models current as agile team assets, useful and visible to all.
