The paper suggests using a business process canvas as a model of a process in a nutshell that presents the essential properties of the process and the context in which it is run, including the position of the process in the business process ecosystem. The canvas consists of three sections: positioning, operations and resources. A positioning section, called Outside, includes such components, as the purpose of the process existence, strategic goals (to be) achieved by having the process, related processes and mechanisms of initiation of new process instances. The operations sections, called Inside, gives an overview of the work of the process instance, and it includes such components as operational goal, milestones, main events and activities, outcomes and constraints. The resources section, called Resources, describes resources/assets used in the process instances, and includes such components, as participants, tools, methods, etc. The paper proposes a canvas layout, describes its components, and presents an example. In conclusion, the paper discusses areas where the canvas could be used in practice.Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-91704-7_4
