ARIS - Standards, Conventions,
Methods and Template
Summary
Lanyon BPM Consulting provide assistance to businesses who
have purchased the ARIS platform and are about to start on their process journey. ARIS is a modelling
tool that has the capability of enforcing modelling standards by use of the Method Filter and the
appearence of your models via the Template defined, however the configuration of both of these requires
some in-depth knowledge of the product and preferably some experience of using ARIS
practically.
Standards
One of the benefits of the ARIS product is the facility to
control the usable content of the product to enable you to set the design standards used in your
company, with standards for people to follow this will ensure that everyone will be able to read your process
maps within your company.
Semantic Checks
One of the ways to find out
if your process have been correctly modelled is to use the ARIS tool to check the models for you, this can be
done using the sematic checking cabability. A number of pre-built checks are available in the product and you
can configure your own 'set' of checks that cover your modelling
standards.
Method Filters
The ARIS toolset supports the process design lifecycle and
has 200+ model types for describing the complete business enterprise. Using the method filter
you can limit... models, objects, connectors, relationships and symbols available for the modellers so that you are
able to set your corporate standards using the ARIS tool to ensure everyone sticks to the company
method.
Template
With ARIS you are able to set the template used for each new model, this will
retain the look and feel of the models and allow you to set the colour, size and look of your
objects.
Configuration
Training
Most people can these days pick-up the rudiments of using new software tools
out-of-the-box BUT configuring products and setting standards and procedures does usually require some in-depth
knowledge and mentoring, why not ask Lanyon BPM to assist?
