Case Management Modeling and Notation (CMMN) standard was introduced as a alternative language of Business Process Management Notation (BPMN) targeting the modeling of human-centric processes characterized by agility. During our involvement in a project for modeling a collaborative process, the way CMMN may be used by modelers was evaluated. The report presents the experience gained from such an attempt, comparing two different models designed by different modeling groups and discuss their design perspective. Answering whether using CMMN by each of the modeling groups to model collaborative processes led to a success or to a failure is not straightforward. The report identifies the resulting issues of each of the perspective, providing some ideas on how these issues may be addressed.
