Background Some organizations use very ad hoc approaches to selecting and acquiring software that may result in them not being aware of appropriate products, or in choosing non-optimal software. Using a systematic approach to software evaluation is important to ensure that software that meets organisational requirements. To do For this question, you should: 1. Investigate criteria that might be important in making a decision about which modelling software package to recommend. 2. Choose the set of criteria to be used in the evaluation (note: there must be at least 6). You will need to justify the choice of each criterion in your report. 3. Determine the relative importance of each of these criteria for choosing a tool to undertake the Business Process Management assignment. The outcome of this will be a relative weighting for each criterion. 4. Identify 3 possible modelling packages that support BPMN 2.0 - these will be your alternatives. Microsoft Visio should be one of them. 5. Use the weighted score method to evaluate your alternatives using the criteria and weightings you have specified. An Excel spreadsheet should be used to support the evaluation and identify which product has the highest ranking. 6. Determine which modelling software package you recommend. o describe how you identified relevant criteria o provide a brief discussion of potential criteria o include your final set of criteria (note: there must be at least 6) and why each of them was chosen to include as important in the decision Relative importance of criteria. This section should discuss and justify the relative importance of each criterion for choosing a tool to undertake the Business Process Management. It should include the percentage weighting of each criterion. Modelling packages. This section should provide a brief description of each of the 3 candidate modelling packages that support BPMN 2.0. Microsoft Visio should be one of them. Evaluation. This section should briefly describe how you evaluated each software package on of the criteria in order to provide the data for the weighted score method. Recommendation. This section should include a table that documents the outcomes of the evaluation and be supported by a recommendation of which modelling software package is recommended based on the evaluation. Bibliography. This should list all the resources you consulted. These should be presented using any referencing style.
