Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a teoria sobre Gestão por Processos de Negócio (BPM - Business Process Management). Para isso foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica sistemática e foram utilizadas técnicas de análise de publicações, citações e de bibliometria. Os resultados mostram a multidisciplinaridade de BPM, como as diferentes áreas de pesquisa compreendem o tema e como praticam essa abordagem. Dentre os periódicos relevantes para o tema, destacaram-se o Business Process Managament Journal, Knowlegde and Process Managemente Total Quality Management & Business Excellence. Dentre as abordagens de aplicação foi possível verificar que existem três tipos adotados pelo estudo e ao todo foram identificadas oito práticas de BPM. As redes de bibliometria mostraram a existência de agrupamentos bibliométricos que pouco interagem, e a relação de BPM com as abordagens de gestão da qualidade e reengenharia. Apesar do aumento de publicações na área, o que mostra a relevância do tema, as publicações tendem a seguir escolas distintas e que ainda atuam de forma isolada na área de BPM.

Definition Of

Computer games conceptualization and development are processes that have particular features with significant complexity. The life cycle at computer games development should attend the dynamism, the challenge and the opportunities of the game market. Business process management (BPM) pretends to give an alternative perspective of management to the departmental and hierarchical one. Game firm’s business should be seen with an integrated attitude, incentivising employees from different departments to work together in the same process with a common mission and persecuting same objectives. The importance of integrating the strategic level plans and the task level deployment is crucial for increased alignment and so, organizational performance. This can be better done if there is a process strategy definition, which links strategic initiatives with all needs of a process infrastructure. The processes´ standardizing tendency opens the chance to outsource parts of them bringing possible benefits to game firm and customers. The definition of a clear framework at the strategic level allows lower processes description and global business process architecture specification. Other important aspects of business process management approach at computer games industry should include ownership clarification, performance measurement mechanisms and obviously the identification and activation of improvement opportunities. Author elects business processes customization, integration of flows between firm and its supply chain partners and superior user interfaces using specialized workflow tools as being three improvement opportunities at games industry. In addition to those components, three additional extra concepts are considered critical to have a complete understanding of BPM. They are the conscious process management, the macro process management and the centrality of process. This chapter is going to follow these vectors in order to understand possible opportunities powered by BPM to gain competitive advantages in computer game industry.

Higher Education Management

In recent years, most universities are facing with the problem of quality management in higher-education systems and institutions. The Countries that have signed the Bologna Declaration are enforced to implement an internal system for quality assurance. One of the key element of a quality management system is the process modelling with delineation of responsibility, authority, procedures and plans. This chapter describes the use of the Business Process Management to support the higher Education Management System at University of Basilicata. The case study developed concerns the following steps: visualizing, measuring, analysing by a simulation environment, and improving the management system. The original contribution of the research concerns the development of a simulation environment using BIZAGI modeller based on BPMN notation in order to analyse and improve the performance of the case study investigated. Moreover, the use of a software based on BPMN can improve quality (error rate reduction), efficiency (saving of time) and agility (implementation of processes of changes).
