[Jan Recker]

Call for Papers to the Business Process Management Track at the AIS Conference

Australasian Conference for Information Systems
Sydney, Australia
30th November - 2nd December, 2011

Submission Deadline 18 July 2011

Theme
Business process management (BPM) has become one of the most widely discussed approaches for information professionals. The potential of BPM particularly lies in the integration of advanced information technology with organisational and managerial methods to foster and leverage business innovation, operational excellence and intra- and inter-organisational collaboration.
Business Process Management as an Information Systems discipline is characterized by a myriad of approaches towards the analysis, modelling, implementation, execution and management of information systems with a process focus, ranging from those supported by groupware and project management products to those supported by workflow management systems and, more recently, business process management systems. However, BPM also embraces further, widely undefined themes pertaining to the engineering and management of systems and organisations, particularly with respect to the areas of organisational culture, process-aware information systems, strategic alignment, and governance structures.
The BPM track intends to capture the contemporary state of the art in BPM research, bringing together global BPM thought leaders. A particular aim of the track is to push the discussion in contemporary BPM research beyond information technology and methods, to also embrace aspects of strategic alignment, governance, people and culture to develop a comprehensive and holistic body of knowledge.
Topics
Topics include (but are not limited to):

 *   Strategic alignment of BPM (e.g., value-based process management);
 *   BPM Governance (e.g., BPM centre of competence);

 *   Process-aware Information Systems (e.g., workflow management and eBusiness standards);
