CERRIX AND

PROCESS MANAGEMENT

Business processes are a relevant source for potential operational risks. Risks can be faced because of a weak process design, the lack of important process controls or the deviations in business practice from the standards. With CERRIX, business processes can be drawn in a strong process designer screen and they can be linked to the central repository. Important functions are:

• Process Designer: Within this part, users can draw flow charts in many formats. In a rich web-based browser, end-users can easily use pre-defined symbols and graphs for designing process charts. Symbols can be interconnected easily.
• Function matrices: People or teams can be assigned to business processes, projects, products and systems with respect to their responsibility. For each role the RACI-chart can be assigned.
• Process characteristics: Additional process information can be stored. This can be either a process description, its objectives, maturity level or costing information.
