with service integration,

rules and events

guided by rules and

events

Structured with ad hoc exceptions

• e.g., financial back-office transactions

Unstructured with pre-defined fragments

• e.g., insurance claims

Unstructured

• e.g., investigations

Collaboration Spectrum

Predefined participants

• Each task in process assigned to specific roles/participants at design time or instantiation

Select from predefined set of participants

• e.g., send to colleague for assistance

Select any participants, or participant self-selection

• e.g., social production

External Socialization Spectrum

Internal only

• All tasks in process completed by internal resources

Expose status to external

• e.g., send milestone alerts to customer

Include external in process

• e.g., route task to trading partner for completion

Challenges

dimensions

adding participants

collaborative processes

users and management
