UK BIM Framework

The UK BIM Framework was developed by the UK BIM Alliance, BSI, and the Centre for Digital Built Britain associated with the Construction Industry Council (CIC) to implement international BIM standards in the UK context. Formally launched in October 2019, it explicitly integrates the BS EN ISO 19650 series into UK working practices. However, it […]

SMART Information requirements

The acronym SMART has been defined by the PAS 1192‑2: 2013 clause 5.1.3. the term means that Information req BS ISO 31000:2018 PAS 11922: 2013 clause 5.1.3 defines the acronym SMART as Information requirements which shall be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-bound against defined project stages and information exchanges. The ISO 19650 Framework equivalent […]

business process modelling notation (BPMN)

Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN) is a flow chart method for modelling the steps of a planned business process from beginning to end. It is a critical component of Business Process Management because it visually depicts the detailed sequence of business activities and information flows required to complete a process. [1] BPMN symbols [1] ISO […]

Activity (Task)

A task is an atomic activity that is part of a process. When the work in the process is not broken down to a finer level of process detail, a task is used. Symbol [1]     Silver, B. (2009). BPMN Method and Style: A levels-based methodology for BPM process modeling and improvement using BPMN 2.0. In […]

Sub-process

A sub-process is a group of activities that are performed as part of a larger process or choreography. It is compound in the sense that it can be broken down into finer details (a process or choreography) through a set of sub-activities. [1] Symbol [1]     Silver, B. (2009). BPMN Method and Style: A levels-based methodology […]

Sub-Process (Expanded)

The sub-process boundary is expanded, and the details (a process) are visible within it. It is important to note that sequence flows cannot cross the boundary of a sub-process.[1] Symbol [1]     Silver, B. (2009).

Sub-Process (Collapsed)

The diagram does not show the details of the sub-process. A “plus” sign in the shape’s lower-left corner indicates that the activity is a sub-process with a lower level of detail.

Start Event

A start event specifies where a process will begin. Start events can only react when a trigger is “caught.” Symbol 9). BPMN Method and Style: A levels-based methodology for BPM process modeling and improvement using BPMN 2.0. In CodyCassidy Press US.

Intermediate Event

An intermediate event is something that occurs between the beginning and end of a process. Triggers can be “caught” or “thrown” by intermediate events. [1] Symbol 1]     Silver, B. (2009).
