Up to now there are no approaches on how to measure, monitor, and evaluate ecosystem-wide performance. Coming to an understanding of how to conceive ecosystem is one essential step towards the development of such approaches.

For other processes such activities are seen rather to occur between the different core processes. Since these activities are outside the project scope

This value chain describes a process view of an organization that builds on a set of core processes.
The core processes are those that create value for the customer, such as sales, logistics, etc.
but required for conducting core processes. These are called support processes (e g. HR, finance, etc..Explicit interdependencies between both these processes can be identified.
Core processes Management processes Supporting processes Manage compliancy Manage audits Manage governance Financial reporting Fig. 2 Process map example found at http://www. ariscommunity. com
Organizations commonly differentiate between core processes, support processes and management processes. In addition, there are some companies that keep the analysis
where a core process is decomposed into smaller part-processes, so-called sub-processes (Malinova & Mendling, 2013).
When a core process starts, the set of its corresponding sub-processes need to be executed in order for the core process to finish.
Another commonly observed primary notation concept is the sequential relation between the core processes. This can be observed from the close proximity of two core processes,
when these stand next to each other. For this, many maps use Porterâ s value chain concept (Malinova & Mendling, 2013;
As a result, all core processes are represented in such a way that there is a temporal sequential order between them.
when each core process is executed. Moreover, when process maps that represent the core processes in a value chain manner,
they also indicate the input of the value chain and its consequent output. The input is usually a customer request,
For example, core processes are represented either by a rectangle-shaped symbol, which obviously indicates a singular process,
pointing to the direction of the core process category. This direction (position and orientation) also infers some meaning,
in which the support processes apparently are there to support the core processes, while the management processes manage the execution of the core processes.
This way, a relation also between the processes that belong to different categories can be depicted implicitly.
Moreover, the close proximity of two core processes typically implies a sequential order between these processes.
For example, an input pointing only to the core process category means that this particular input will trigger the execution of one or a set of core processes.
clusters are defined for core, support and management processes. Beyond this, the map also indicates a notion of process containment within the core process Fig. 3 The original process map of a European insurance company Leveraging Innovation Based on Effective Process Map Design:
Insights from...223 category. This we infer from the labels used for each sub-process.
For example, the processes shown in the core process category win customers and control sales are clearly a subset of the core process sales.
In addition, based on the order of the four core processes (sales, actuarial, administration and capital allocation) and the inputs and outputs coming from and to some of the core processes (sealed contracts, fees,
estimates) we could infer certain sequence of execution. This company used few visual variables to complement the primary notation.
On the other hand, the light brown color differentiates between core processes and their corresponding sub-processes. The management and support processes are using the rectangle-shaped symbol,
while the core processes and sub-processes use a pentagon-shaped symbol positioned horizontally. This might indicate that these processes include activities that are done in a particular order.
The input/output notions we found to be primary concepts are complemented by an arrow between the core processes.
indeed, there is a sequential order between the core processes. The explicitly labeled inputs and outputs, together with the directed arrow, clearly depict what a core process needs to produce in order to finish,
thus starting the execution of the next in line process. 4. 3 Discussion of the Original Process Map For a process map to be cognitively effective it needs to reflect the principles of visual notations by Moody (2009).
Despite the fact that the symbols used for the core processes differ from the rest, the color remains the same.
There is a notion of process order between the core processes. However, it is difficult, only by looking at the process map,
On the other hand, we can observe the use of additional text to indicate the output of one core process and the input of another (e g. sealed contracts.
While this significantly assists in 224 M. Malinova and J. Mendling understanding the nature of the respective core processes,
this input/output text is shown not between all core processes (e g. actuarial). As such, it will potentially lead to misinterpretations and misunderstandings among the end-users.
Now, management as well as support processes are visualized with symbols different to the ones of the core processes.
Second, the core business has been subdivided into three segments which are interrelated. The customer-facing processes partially interact with the recipient-facing processes.
This was also the main reason for the missing input between the actuarial and administrative core processes from Fig. 3. The original process map provided an inappropriate representation of the interfaces
which were in fact necessary for the relation between the two core processes. In this way, innovation at these crossroads was blocked by the fact that it was captured simply not in an explicit manner.
Then, the system collects and monitors such metrics during the execution of the process. Due to the popularity of the BSC methodology among executives, many packaged solutions offer standard business process models that are mapped already into BSC metrics (Brignall & Ballantine, 2003.
