Abstract
Business process modeling is a decisive task as process models prepare the ground for business transformation and process improvement initiatives. However, modeling projects fall short of their initial aim when process participants are not involved in the act of model creation. The employees’ individual process knowledge has been recognized as a crucial success factor to define high-quality process models that reflect a company’s working procedures correctly. This paper introduces a prototype supporting collaborative modeling of business processes on tablet devices aimed at process modeling novices.
