Syllabus Content:

The Context for Business Processing Modelling (15%):

  • Purpose and Benefits: Demonstrating an understanding of the purpose and benefits of business process modelling for customers, business staff, and the organization.

  • Business Process Hierarchy: Identifying the three levels of the business process hierarchy: enterprise level, event-response level, and actor-task level.

  • Process View vs. Functional View: Explaining the importance of the process view compared to the functional view of an organization.

Modelling at the Enterprise Level (15%):

  • Organizational Models: Interpreting the construction of an organizational model of business process using tools like Porter’s value chain, value proposition, SIPOC, and Harmon’s Organizational Model.

  • Value Proposition: Explaining how the processes on the organizational model support the delivery of the value proposition, including product/service attributes, customer relationship aspects, and image and reputation aspects.

Modelling at the Event-Response Level (30%):

  • Business Process Model Construction: Interpreting the construction of a business process model, including elements like event, actor, task, swimlane, decision point, fork and join, outcome, process flow, and timeline.

  • Standard Notation: Explaining the importance of using a standard notation set (UML, BPMN) for modelling business processes.
