What is Bpanda?
Bpanda lets you quickly and easily find out about the processes that are relevant to you.
The process steps are presented to you either as a diagram, as a process list or in the step-by-step guide.
Purpose and functionality of Bpanda
Bpanda brings together the knowledge about your company’s business processes in one place. Everyone involved in the processes shares it here. You can use the process platform on a PC, tablet or smartphone.
The intuitive user interface allows every user to quickly find and use the information they need. The search function suggests suitable search terms as you type.
Processes can be understood reliably even without knowledge of the diagram symbols. The process steps are always displayed automatically in text form in a process list, taking all branches into account as well. Alternatively, a guide takes you through your process step by step and explains each diagram symbol. This makes even complex procedures easy to follow and apply.
Process Owners can easily link every process and every process step with the corresponding documents, videos and links. Knowledgeable Process Contributors can support them in doing so.
Designers can capture processes directly with the integrated Modeler. Alternatively, an established modelling tool can be used to integrate the processes into Bpanda effortlessly on the basis of BPMN XML.
You can suggest improvements to your process quite easily in the form of a question about the process. Discussions and decisions are consolidated and documented directly at the process.
Bpanda makes knowledge about processes and structures immediately accessible to everyone involved through the following core functions:
- presentation of processes in a freely structurable process hierarchy
- process map for a graphical illustration of the levels of the process hierarchy
- access and permissions in the Process Space via roles and groups
- easy searching for processes
- easy navigation to the search results or in the process map
- zoomable, vector-based display of the process diagrams
- automatic list display of the process steps, events and branches
- controllable step-by-step guide through every process diagram – entirely without BPMN knowledge
- detailed display of the properties of the process elements
- linking of processes with documents, videos and links
- favourites and history make direct access to processes easier
- better process understanding through questions and answers (Q&A)
- intuitive sharing of process links for easy communication
- integrated process capture with the Modeler
- process improvements through feedback and approval by means of Review functions
- integrated risk management: capture and assess the risks and opportunities of your processes in order to improve your processes and make them more secure
How the user interface is structured — home page, main menu, user menu — is described in Getting to know the user interface.
