Process Chain

A process chain is a representation and modeling of the procurement, production, distribution or other processes of one or more companies using graphical symbols. It consists of various elements, each of which comprises a definable process and is connected to the P. via logical links. A structure designed in this way has only different functional levels and no classic, hierarchical organizational structure and is the basis for effective process-oriented management. The event-driven P. is, for example, an essential element of the ARIS concept (architecture of integrated information systems). Source: logipedia / Fraunhofer IML
