Part of the discussions will be connected to the presentations listed in
the preliminary agenda at: http://www.ibissoft.se/REBPS03/accepted.htm
After that, a brainstorming session will follow with the title:
Business Process Support - from initial analysis to introduction into
operational practice. Obstacles to overcome.
Abstract: There is an important difference between a traditional business
application and a business process support (BPS) system. A traditional
business application is aimed at supporting the old way of doing business
but more effectively. A BPS system can be considered as a tool of
introducing a new way of organizing work. Moreover, this way is often
impossible to introduce without a support system. This difference affects
all stages of system development, from initial analysis to introduction
into the operational practice. For example, what are the best ways to
discuss with domain expert a new way of organizing business before you have
any system? In what way the user can recognize in the system the
requirements created during the analysis phase? How much of the system
should be initially introduced in operational practice so that the user can
get a "feeling" of the new way of organizing business and accept it? A list
of these, and other questions will be compiled and put forward for
brainstorming.
