Abstract

In this chapter the authors introduce the role of a business process engineer (BPE) and necessary competencies to define, simulate, analyze, and improve business processes. As a minimal body of knowledge for a BPE we propose two complementary fields: enterprise integration engineering (EIE) and business process management (BPM). EIE is presented as a discipline that enriches business models by providing additional views to enhance and extend the coverage of business models through the consideration of additional elements to those that are normally considered by a process model, such as the inclusion of mission, vision, and strategy which are cornerstone in EIE. A BPE is a person who holistically uses principles of BPE, EIE, and associated tools to build business models that identify elements such as information sources involved, the roles which use and transform the information, and the processes that guide end-to-end transformation of information along the business.
