ABOUT THIS SESSION:
We often look around confused, not knowing why we work so hard, but often with so little to show for it. Why things that logically seem so simple cost far more than expected and take so long. The process for rules is a pathway from gridlock to agility, offering proven order-of-magnitude improvements in business capabilities. It’s a process your company can simply no longer afford to avoid.
Is the process for rules the same as the software development lifecycle and requirements development? No, not even close. Ultimately the process for rules involves nothing less than the nuts-and-bolts governance process of the organization.
This presentation envisions what role business analysts and others should play in the process for rules. It explains how making business processes smarter and highly customized is much simpler than it seems. Finally, it foresees a new awakening of business potential and quality of service just a few steps away.
