A Business Process-Based Modelling Extension for Regulatory Compliance
نویسنده
چکیده
Financial scandals and the related increase in mistrust of investors represented in the public view through the Enron and Worldcom cases led to various legal and community driven initiatives in recent years resulting in a tighter regulation context for companies with the overall goal to regain and strengthen stakeholders’ confidence and trust. The paper at hand presents how IT can support regulatory compliance. The IT-support is based on a conceptual approach for integrating compliance management and business process management by using meta-modelling concepts and provides then the example of the actual implementation. Furthermore, the applicability of the approach is presented through a case-study which was realised within a project on the basis of the regulations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
