Requirements Elicitation with Business Process Modeling Notation

By: Ian Buchanan

Abstract: Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is a relatively new graphical notation for capturing business procedures and provides organizations the ability to communicate these procedures in a standard format. Such a standard encourages collaboration, and helps business analysts ask the right questions about internal and B2B business processes and can help insure that they get the right answers. In this session, learn effective, best practice techniques for conducting requirements elicitation with BPMN.
