Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The importance of involving enterprise stakeholders in organizational transformation and development processes has been acknowledged in many scholarly publications in the context of business information systems research. Method and tool support for this is particularly explored and provided by the field of participatory enterprise modelling (PEM). In PEM, modelling sessions involving all relevant stakeholders and guided by a modelling facilitator are a central element. However, the published work on PEM is not very extensive with respect to structuring such modelling sessions, in particular when combining analytical and design parts. It is hence hard for novice modelling facilitators to plan a workshop, to switch between different workshop phases and to react to unforeseen events. Since existing literature covers only generic aspects of workshop moderation, we fill this gap in providing an initial model that can serve to inform, structure and guide PEM sessions. The model has been developed by analysing examples from real-world modelling sessions.

A Data-Driven Framework for Automated Requirements Elicitation from Heterogeneous Digital Sources
- 2020

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Increased digitalization and the pervasiveness of Big Data, along with vastly improved data processing capabilities, have led to the consideration of digital data as additional sources of system requirements, complementing conventional stakeholder-driven approaches. The volume, velocity and variety of these digital sources present numerous challenges which existing system development methods are unable to manage in a systematic and efficient manner. We propose a holistic and data-driven framework for continuous and automated acquisition, analysis and aggregation of heterogeneous digital sources for the purposes of requirements elicitation and management. The proposed framework includes a conceptualization in the form of a meta-model and a high-level process for its use; the framework is illustrated in a real case of an enterprise software.

Improvements on Capability Modeling by Implementing Expert Knowledge About Organizational Change
- 2020
-

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Modern digital organizations are constantly facing new opportunities and threats, originating from the highly dynamic environments they operate in. On account of this situation, they need to be in a state of constant change and evolution to achieve their goals or ensure survival, and this is achieved by adapting their capabilities. Enterprise Modeling and capability modeling have provided a plethora of approaches to facilitate the analysis and design of organizational capabilities. However, there is potential for improving management of capability change. This Design Science research aims to provide methodological and tool support for organizations that are undergoing changes. A previously introduced meta-model will serve as the basis for a method supporting capability change. The goal of this study is to explore expert knowledge about organizational change in order to evaluate the initial version of the meta-model and identify possible weaknesses. Ten semi-structured interviews have been conducted to explore the perspectives of experienced decision-makers on capability change. Three categories emerged from the analysis, reflecting on howcapability change is observed, decided and delivered respectively. These have been used as input for revising the conceptual structure of the capability change meta-model.

Modeling Products and Services with Enterprise Models
- 2020
-
In: The Practice of Enterprise Modeling. - Cham : Springer. - 9783030634780 - 9783030634797 ; , s. 41-57
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Products and services are essential to an enterprise’s operations and hence they need to be designed, developed, and delivered in congruence with the enterprise’s business strategy and design. This paper investigates how to identify relevant aspects of products and services to be added to enterprise models by extending existing Enterprise Modeling (EM) languages for product/service modeling. The proposal is to decide on the relevance for EM based on “touch points”. The proposal is applied to extending the 4EM method with a Product/Service Model and is based on literature analysis in the area of product and service modeling and on an industrial case study.
