Abstract: A software system that uses the rigor and rules of business process automation to capture and structure organizational expertise, processes, and procedures—the non-automatable activities and actions of an organization—into a single, common, enterprise-wide, information framework. The capture function is engineered for usability and structured to reflect the patterns and semantics of business users rather than imposing software or process terminology. The produced framework generates a process-driven, centralized taxonomy of information and resources as business requirements are captured. The framework delivers users an organization-specific context to activities and information to be used for learning, training, reference, improvisation, collaboration, and operations.
