Solution Overview

Problem

Creating and maintaining automated business processes in large enterprises is complex due to systems not designed for optimization or interaction, leading to cumbersome and error-prone implementations that require specialized programming skills.

Innovation Solution

A computer program product comprising a process architecture server, process architect client, and stakeholder client, which includes subsystems for access control, workflow modeling, data management, communication, and report management to automatically generate a customizable enterprise management system from design inputs, allowing lay users to create and modify processes without needing specialized programming knowledge.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Extent of automation

If automated business processes are implemented in large enterprises using existing systems, then business process automation is achieved, but the systems become complex and error-prone due to lack of optimization and interaction design

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebusiness process automationVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the enterprise management system into multiple independent modules including workflow management module, document management module, communication module, and reporting module. Each module can be developed, deployed, and maintained independently, reducing overall system complexity while enabling comprehensive automation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a universal enterprise management system that can handle multiple business processes across different departments and functions through a common platform. The system provides multi-functional capabilities including workflow automation, document management, communication, and reporting within a single integrated system, reducing the need for multiple separate systems.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If specialized programmers are engaged to create enterprise management systems, then system functionality is achieved, but the time and cost required for system creation increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem customization capabilityVSAvoidsystem creation time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system provides pre-configured templates for common business processes, document types, and workflow patterns that can be directly deployed or lightly customized. This preliminary preparation of standard configurations significantly reduces the time required to create new enterprise management systems while maintaining adaptability through optional customization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements self-service capabilities that enable business users to create, modify, and manage their own workflows and processes without requiring specialized programming knowledge. The system includes drag-and-drop interface tools and configuration wizards that allow users to build customized solutions independently, eliminating the need for external programmers for routine system creation tasks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Ease of manufacture

If existing systems are used without optimization for operator work, then system deployment is straightforward, but the ease of operation decreases making processes cumbersome

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem deployment easeVSAvoidprocess execution ease
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality optimization by providing context-specific interfaces and workflows tailored to each business process and user role. Each module and workflow is designed with optimized interaction patterns appropriate to its specific function, improving ease of operation for each task while maintaining overall system deployability through standardized integration mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A computer program product for creating an enterprise management dashboard program, and comprising a process architecture server, a process architect client, a stakeholder client, and/or a process object server. The process architecture server includes a compiler characterized by an access control subsystem (receives role-base access control definition data), a work flow modeling subsystem (receives process model definition data), a data management subsystem (receives data structure definition data), a communication subsystem (receives communication protocol definition data), and a report management subsystem (receives report content definition data). The compiler uses the aforementioned data to create executable computer code for the enterprise management dashboard program based on modeling constructs including project sites, task pages, interface templates, report templates, and/or third-party process content. The resultant enterprise management dashboard program may be used to create and save process objects such as projects, tasks, artifacts (e.g., digital files), and process metrics.
