This standard describes the approach that departments of the Government of Alberta (GoA) must follow to model business processes where these models are intended to be long-lived assets of the GoA.
This standard provides a consistent and coherent modelling approach for GoA's business processes. It bridges business process design and process implementation and allows departments to share models, re-use models, connect processes to other business processes, and identify process improvements; reduces the total effort required to produce, consume or maintain a business process model; and ensures that models are sufficiently descriptive of processes to support decision-making regarding and automation of the processes while remaining consumable by all process stakeholders.
