The power of process documentation

The era of printed documents and process models is over. Digital tools enable efficient, collaborative, and versioned documentation. Here are some of the best options:

• TIM Solutions: Specializes in workflow and process automation. Enables easy modeling and implementation of business processes with high user-friendliness.
• ADONIS: Offers powerful process modeling and analysis functions. Ideal for companies that want to continuously optimize their business processes.
• Camunda: Particularly suitable for companies with high requirements for workflow management and automation. Supports BPMN and DMN for comprehensive process automation.

Choosing the right tool is closely linked to the appropriate modeling standard. BPMN is particularly suitable as a widely used standard because it enables clear, uniform representation and is ideal for process automation. EPK (event-driven process chain) is mainly used in German-speaking countries, but is becoming less common as BPMN has become the international standard and is better suited to digital process automation.
