Abstract

People are changing the way how they interact with the internet. They are using it to connect virtually with other people for sharing ideas, opinions about a specific item/product or process. BPM involves a detailed analysis of the organization, and often a change in organizational structure. Organisations will be able to reach additional benefits in the usage of BPM Software and Social Software for the coordination of activities that involve processes and it supports new communication patterns between costumers and enterprise. The solution found was the combination of social technology and Business Process Management. This paper proposes a framework focused on design and analysis stage in BPM life cycle that enables all the stakeholders to interact and share knowledge in order to fill some of the existing gaps in BPM life cycle, creating a harnessing collective awareness.
