Abstract
In the business we are experiencing digital transformation by a higher speed of change and increasing complexity. Especially in the area of BPM this causes more projects which fail. The reasons are manifold but well known and point to the usage of more than 40 years old paradigms of software development. The gap between people formulation new requirements for processes and those creating the software for digitization and automation is getting larger. A solution is to involve business practitioners directly in programming. This disruptive approach is shifting the old software development paradigms and only possible if the basis for programming by businesspeople is based on subject-orientation and on a very simple and easy to use programming environment. Metasonic® Process Suite and Touch provides exactly this environment for coding the business logic of a process by businesspeople. The created process model serves both business and IT. Many examples realized on subject-oriented BPM prove this new concept pays off and is created big success. A comparison of TCO between S-BPM projects and projects using conventional approaches shows the financial advantages in more details. For BPM projects, using the S-BPM methodology and the metasonic® Process Suite & Touch yield significant time and cost savings. The savings are a direct result of the essential capabilities that set the S-BPM methodology and the metasonic® Process Suite & Touch apart from other approaches it focuses on subjects and their communication – the two key elements that are essential to any organization’s success.
