Hi Everyone,
Im new to business process management and am having trouble understanding a few things and was hoping you could point me in the direction of some articles that might help. Sorry if these questions seem silly but I am new to this.
1 - Am I correct in understanding that when you begin business process management you should select a framework to follow and then a modelling technique that fits in with that framework?
2 - What are the types of frameworks (other than aris) and the modelling techniques
3 - From what I have read it is my understanding that ARIS is a framework and that it uses EPC as the modelling notation? is that because EPC is part of ARIS or is it just that in the case of the book I was reading was the chosen notation?
Any information you could provide to me as a newbie to understand the over all process and how aris and other frameworks and modelling techniques would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Kelly.

Hi Kelly,
I can put my understanding,
Q1. It is always a best practice to go with Frameworks / Models as they are proven, you got lot of frameworks to chose from like ARIS House, ToGAF, DoDAF, ITIL, SLOR.
IndustryPrint is a Custom Framework of Delliote, based on an organizational BusinessProcess Maturity level and amount of effort that is already put into BPM , will always help in bringout a Custom framework that fits to its need.
Q2 & Q3 . I can put it like, ARIS is a concept and ARIS House is a framework. And EPC is the modelling Language used to defines Processes, EPC is Business Driven.Orginally EPC is used by ARIS in conjunction with SAP R/3 for modelling BusinessProcesses, and moving forward ARIS made it as base for Modelling in its tools.
Hope this helps you.
PS: ARIS Gurus, correct me if any.
Thanks
