Process Modeling

Communicate business processes clearly, completely and efficiently

Visualizing is one of the most important factors in understanding. By modeling your processes in a visual way, you are increasing the potential for success that your organization will understand their processes and have a foundation for analyzing and improving them and effectively communicating change to all that are affected.

iGrafx helps companies bridge communication gaps and deploy processes faster with easy to use process modeling solutions. iGrafx supports the most widely used process modeling styles and notations, from basic processes flowcharts and cross-functional Swimlane diagrams to powerful standards like BPMN or specialty modeling methods like IDEF0.

Intelligent Diagramming – Maximize modeling productivity and minimize errors

iGrafx users easily create process models using an intuitive interface that automatically manages many of the drawing tasks. Time-savers like placing shapes quickly, re-using model objects in diagrams and drag and drop sub-processes help capture processes quickly all while ensuring consistency.

Simple, Visual Communication of Complex Models

iGrafx process models are much more than connected activities on a page. iGrafx models include visual indicators that communicate relationships to other aspects of the enterprise: how work products are input and output from activities; what is manual and what is automated; how processes are supported by human or system resources; if there are controls or measurements in place, and much more.

BPMN - A Standard for Communicating Processes

Customized BPMN palettes, automatic pools and intelligent formatting makes iGrafx the most efficient tool for creating and modifying even the most complex BPMN diagram.

iGrafx provides full support for key BPMN components including flow objects, connecting objects, swimlanes, pools and artifacts.

Correct by construction design reduces model development time and ensures accurate BPMN diagrams.
Easily convert existing swimlane® process maps into BPMN format for time-to-deployment advantage. Add further detail to define the interactions with messages and partners for export to XPDL or Business Process Execution Language (BPEL).
Simulate BPMN models to ensure that your models are optimized prior to deployment in an execution environment.
