November 2010ToNadineForewordConceptual modeling as a tool for effective business process management is a core subject inthe IS community. The last fifteen years have seen considerable improvements on methodsand implementations for model-based process analysis and design. However, the applicationarea of these methods and tools has since been constricted the context of highly predictableand repeatable process structures that are readily accessible to formalization. In these areas,the major goals of modeling endeavors can be found in measurement and optimizationof process efficiency, in process restructuring and automation. In businesses, however,where originality and innovation are predominant drivers of the competitive environment,traditional efficiency figures will take a back seat in the assessment of a company’s success.
