    AIAI's Vision for Process Management AIAI's Vision for Process Management

    Our visualisation of knowledge base supported process management in an organisation is:

    Strategic Level

    Consider that there is support to establish the following:

    • organisational processes and constraints reliably captured along with their underlying intentions and dependencies

    • lead applications identified, cost benefit analysed, risk analysed and rated using business case support tools

    • key objectives and tasks stated, constraints identified

    • top level options generated and evaluated

    • programme road map created

    Tactical Level
    On the basis of the information generated above, we use constrained plan editing, partially or fully automatic plan elaboration, scheduling, etc. We fit this level to project management tools in the market today and show how these can inter-work. We add plan creation, querying, simulation and animation capabilities to significantly enhance the capabilities available to planners and schedulers today.

    Operational Level
    Then we use the information and its embedded rationale, enriched resource and authority model to fit to (intelligent) work flow managers or process support environments (e.g. such as ProcessWise [3]) and use these as the point of delivery and control of reliable enactment of the plans and schedules in an enriched environment where plan tracking, question answering, explanation, options reworking, reaction and recovery are all possibilities future.
