How our services can be used together
Search for a business process using APQC's PCF® taxonomy
Each business process has a name and the numerical identifier that shows the process's location in the APQC's PCF® hierarchy.
Get its reference BPMN model for adaptation and adjustment
Reference process models are given as valid BPMN 2.0 files, however, they should be tuned according to the business needs.
Analyze this model to find extension and
improvement spots
Whereas this linear model is syntactically perfect, it is semantically poor though and needs business-specific adjustments.
Estimate implementation and maintenance costs
of this model
Models undergo a rough estimation of the efforts and costs required for their deployment and fixing of possible defects.
Who needs this service and why?
"If you automate a mess, you get an automated mess"

- Business process modeling helps organizations to represent scenarios of their activities in graphical way in order to find possible drawbacks, identify potential improvements, or just to instruct employees with detailed descriptions of workflows they should follow.
- Business process modeling requires certain training, but even experienced analysts that know literally everything about workflows under description may commit some mistakes: models could be redundant and workflow paths could be inconsistent, which lead to poor quality models that are not understandable enough and barely modifiable.
- Business process models of high quality are expected to be deployed and executed without errors that may lead to extra expenses and delays.
Check out the steps outlined below or start using our BPMN analysis tool immediately
Drag & drop BPMN 2.0 file or use file selection dialog

What is already done and what should be done in future
Investigation on business process model quality analysis, estimation, and improvement. First results were published in
CEUR-WS Proceedings of ICTERI 2019 PhD Symposium. Refined research paper on this topic were published in Springer CCIS Volume. Research is still in progress, however certain novel results have been already obtained.
In future we are planning to came up with:
The idea of this service has grown from the PhD project of Andrii Kopp supervised by Dmytro Orlovskyi. After the dissertation was finished and defended, focus has shifted from theoretical issues to practical implementation.
According to our idea:
We already have developed initial prototype of this service. There are following features implemented:
A minimum viable product should provide:
A ready for sell product should provide:
Results of our major research studies
Since business process modeling is considered as the foundation of Business Process Management, it is required to design understandable and modifiable process models used to analyze and improve depicted business processes. Therefore, this article proposes a method for business process model analysis and improvement. The lifecycle of Business Process Management from business process modeling to applying the Business Intelligence and process mining techniques is considered. Existing approaches to business process model analysis are reviewed. Proposed method is based on best practices in business process modeling, process model metrics, and corresponding thresholds. The usage of business process model metrics and thresholds to formalize process modeling guidelines is outlined, as well as the procedure of business process model analysis and improvement is shown. The application of Business Intelligence techniques to support the proposed method is demonstrated.
Business process management has become the most widely-used and reliable approach to organizational management over the last decades. It is also considered as a part of quality management system in an organization. Business process modeling is the core of business process management, which is used for visualization, analysis, and improvement of organizational activities. Moreover, business process modeling plays an important role in the context of business process management maturity of an overall enterprise. Therefore, this paper is focused on the problem of business process model quality evaluation. Existing approaches based on the process modeling guidelines, measures and corresponding thresholds are reviewed, as well as the refined process modeling rules, corresponding quality criteria, the generalized quality criterion, and thresholds for its translation into linguistic values are proposed. The data model and software prototype are developed and the validation results are outlined.
