Abstract

In literature and business practice, implementing the business strategy and analyzing business processes is often addressed separately although business processes are regarded as a competitive key resource. In many businesses, it is unclear which systematic approach is most appropriate to identify process analysis methods which support the achievement of strategic objectives best. This contribution proposes an association model for the systematic combination of corporate strategy and business process analysis methods: First, it describes how a corporate strategy can be formalized. Then, a system is designed that rates known process analysis methods according to their support of the process strategy. Users of the model only have to rate the importance of strategy classes on a numerical scale. In order to validate the model, it has been tested during expert interviews and by applying it for real processes from different companies.
