Abstract: Provided is a technique that includes determining a scope model including a process-element matrix including a set of processes, a set of elements, and process-element pairs that each correspond to a respective pair of a process of the set of processes and an element of the set of elements, and populating one or more of the process-element pairs of the process-element matrix to identify an actor associated with performing the process associated with the process-element pair for the element associated with the process-element pair, and to identify an attribute associated with the process-element pair.

Abstract: A method for analyzing an operation of an organization, especially in the context of an outsourcing. The method includes decomposing the operation along a value chain containing a plurality of processes, associating a process of the value chain with an element that is subject to the process, and designating a characteristic of the associated process and element. As an example, the element is a device (e.g., PC workstation) that is subject to processes (e.g., customer relationship management). As an example, the characteristic is an actor (e.g., an organization or an outsourcer) responsible for performing at the intersection of the associated process and element.
