SPOTLIGHT ON
GOVERNMENT
AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA: IT'S TIME TO FIX BROKEN
GOVERNMENT
BY CLAY RICHARDSON, FORRESTER RESEARCH, USA
Dear President Obama:
The world paused on a remarkable day in January 2009 as you took
the oath of office and promised to usher in a new era in American
government. In many ways, the country and the world continue to bask
in the afterglow of that historic day. However, critical observers
closely interpreted your speech as a challenge to roll up our
collective sleeves and recommit ourselves to good deeds, hard work and
innovation. A call to employ the best minds, the boldest ideas, and
the most innovative technologies to wage a war against the economic
malaise brought on by the market crash of 2008.
MANAGING CHANGE WITH RE-USABLE ASSETS FOR GOVERNMENT AGENCIES
BY DR. SETRAG KHOSHAFIAN, PEGASYSTEMS INC., USA
Business Process Management (BPM) suites automate policies and
procedures. The policies and procedures are captured in executable
process flows, different types of business rules, case data, user
interactions and service integration--all in the context of
organizational access controls. These are the operational BPM assets
of government agencies. This chapter will show how BPM can realize
change and agility through re-usable government BPM assets. Dynamic
BPM repositories allow each government agency to use common practices,
while specializing for their particular agency extensions and needs.
Thus re-usable assets can be organized in different collections
pertaining to shared as well as specialized solutions for various
sectors such as healthcare, financial management, education, and
national security. The chapter will discuss dynamic BPM repositories
for the public sector. These repositories organize the re-usable
assets for specific agency needs.
STREAMLINING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CASE FILES AT THE AIR FORCE
RESEARCH LABORATORY (AFRL)
BY CHARLES JOESTEN, PMP, ICOR PARTNERS LLC, USA
The United States Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) XE "United
States Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL)" provides leadership in
scientific and technological research and development for Department
of Defense XE "Department of Defense" , commercial, and academic
organizations. Key artifacts that ultimately improve warfighting
technologies are assembled into official records known as laboratory
case files. From 2002-2005 AFRL set out to streamline the management
of its case files using improved processes and modern workflow tools.
This case explores the challenges AFRL faced and its approach to
better process, workflow, and records management of science and
technology projects.
Practitioners in the field of workflow management and process
improvement face a variety of challenges with each agency they
support. Administrative, bureaucratic, and logistical challenges were
all considered in determining the best business process management
solutions for AFRL. Additionally, many challenges related to the
unique nature of the content generated and managed at the lab,
including rocket science.
HOW CONVERGING METHODOLOGIES AND TECHNOLOGIES EFFECT ADOPTION AND
SUCCESS OF BPM
BY LINUS K. CHOW, ORACLE CORPORATION, USA
Government Enterprises faced with incredible changes with multiple
crises and political upheaval are trying to adapt their operations to
handle increased workload, cut costs, and be more agile. BPM has
indeed been very effective at addressing this need, but as BPM and
other capabilities have evolved, governments are expanding their
evaluation and use of BPM to include this convergence of technology
and methodology. BPM does not operate in a vacuum. In fact BPM has
come to be the bridge among stakeholders, methodology, systems, and
legacy applications. Especially in government, BPM plays a key role in
not only cutting costs and increasing efficiency, but also in adding
agility to their Enterprise Architecture (EA).

EXCERPTS...
US MILITARY ENTRANCE PROCESSING COMMAND, US GOVERNMENT GOLD AWARD,
NORTH AMERICA. NOMINATED BY ORACLE CORP., USA
The United States Military Entrance Processing Command (US MEPCOM)
processes and qualifies individuals applying for military service in
any one of five Armed Services (Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force
and Coast Guard) and their subcomponents (i.e. Reserve, National
Guard). They are required to process over 1 million records a year
with potentially spikes of 18,000 per day (5.6 million a year), and to
maintain over 60 million current records across all the armed
services. Their existing Enterprise Architecture (EA) was to
antiquated and brittle to handle the growing requirements of its
customer in an increasingly changing environment.
U.S. XPRESS ENTERPRISES, INC., USA, SILVER AWARD, NORTH AMERICA.
NOMINATED BY CORDYS LTD., UK
U.S. Xpress Enterprises stands today as one of the premier
transportation companies in North America. Founded in 1985, U.S.
Xpress is the third-largest privately-owned truckload carrier with
over 8,500 trucks and 26,000 trailers. U.S. Xpress has reshaped the
landscape of transportation by developing revolutionary innovations
that continually deliver unmatched levels of customer satisfaction.
MIGROS BANK, SWITZERLAND, GOLD AWARD, EUROPE. NOMINATED BY ACTION
TECHNOLOGIES INC., USA
Migros Bank is one of the 10 leading financial institutes in
Switzerland and one of the biggest Retail-Banks. Our focus is to be
very close to the clients and therefore we have around 50 branches all
over Switzerland and many more small contact-points that offer basic
services for new clients. All in all about 1,400 employees work for
Migros Bank. When we outsourced almost all of our IT to an external
provider, little or no electronic workflows were in use. In addition,
we were confronted with increasing regulatory and risk issues
concerning the internal order processing from the regions to the
centralized back-offices that were done by placing orders by paper
forms and by fax. To improve these situations we initiated a project
to implement electronic people-to-people workflows.
