Abstract
Business process modeling (BPM) is gaining attention as a measure for analysis and improvement of the business process. BPM analyzes the current business process as an As-Is model and solves problems to improve the current business, and also aims to create a business process that produces value as a To-Be model. However, research into techniques that connect the business process improvement acquired by BPM to the implementation of the information system seamlessly is rarely reported. If the business model obtained by BPM is converted to UML, and the implementation can be carried out by the technique of UML, one can expect an improvement in the efficiency of information system implementation. In this paper, we describe a method for system development that converts the process model obtained by BPM into UML. The method is evaluated by modeling a prototype of a parts procurement system. In the evaluation, a comparison with a case in which the system is implemented using the conventional UML techniques without BPM is performed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
