Integration of Risk Aspects into Business Process Modeling

摘要

Regulatory rules force most enterprises to implement a risk management system with a detailed documentation of their risk situation. In parallel, business processes which can be source and target of risks are systematically documented. Hence, it seems obvious to combine both tasks. Despite research's long lasting focus on risk management and business process management, only few approaches exist that try to fully integrate risk aspects into business process models. Most methods consider risk management only partly. This paper therefore develops a comprehensive concept for the integration of risk aspects into business process modeling. It is based on the Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) 2.0, that only needs to be extended carefully.
