White Paper Synopsis:

Process prototyping techniques are applied within the context of facilitated workshops. The paper advocates Business Process Prototyping as a way to broaden the scope of a DSDM project to both encompass the business process element and support the business staff in achieving business change. It highlights differences between IT applications which work with a purely manual process and those where the business process itself is IT enabled. It argues that in the first case process orientation is extremely valuable and in the second essential.

The paper goes on to describe Business Process Prototyping and how it relates to DSDM. It covers benefits of using the technique and the logistics of when to use it, how to apply it, who should be involved (including specialist role of Process Co-ordinator) and where it should take place. The paper has an appendix that illustrates some process modelling techniques that can be used with Process Prototyping.

Key points include:
* IT staff can provide valuable support for business staff in designing their business process within the context of the DSDM team;
* Soft skills are essential to Business Process Prototyping;
* Applying facilitated workshops to the Business Study may significantly cut timescales;
* Business Process Prototyping helps to bridge the "semantic gap" and provides a valuable link to business objectives for the empowered user;
* A catalogue of prioritised business scenarios enables end-to-end testing (which includes IT testing);
* A business process focus helps the understanding and co-ordination of the DSDM project within its wider business context.
The paper concludes that the benefits of Business Process Prototyping are:
* It focuses attention on the business objectives;
* It is an efficient and effective addition to the DSDM techniques;
* It addresses all three aspects of people, process and technology within a single activity, thus, giving an overview of the overall business solution;
* It brings together process focus with facilitated workshops, under the umbrella of DSDM, giving a powerful an
