An experience in modelling business process architecture
We present a mapping of a previously designed Business Process
Architecture (BPA) meta-model onto ArchiMate, i.e., the de facto standard
Enterprise Architecture (EA) modelling language. This construct mapping allows
developing process maps, i.e., descriptions of (views of) the business process
architecture of an organization. We demonstrate the development of these process maps using the Signavio Business Process Management (BPM) modelling
platform. The developed process maps are part of the organization’s enterprise
architecture model and are linked to BPMN process diagrams that detail the
functional, control-flow, data and resource aspects of the business processes
included in the process map. Our research contributes to the integration of BPM
and EA by researching BPA as a concept common to both disciplines
