Modeling the Workforce

Every enterprise uses an organization model. This is typically a hierarchical structure that identifies the resources - people - who work for the organization, their structural relationships to one another and (possibly) other data about the resources. The model is typically maintained in one or more enterprise directories.

TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM uses the enterprise’s own organization model as the basis for work distribution. TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM maintains its own model of the enterprise’s organizational structure. This organization model is based on the enterprise directory, augmented with additional business process management-related information required to manage work for users - for example, an employee’s role (their job title or function), technical capabilities and so on.
