I participate in the exhibition at South Africa’s Parliament’s budget vote. At this event the Members of Parliament debate and vote for the budget put forward by the Parliament’s administration. During the event the administration has the opportunity to exhibit their services and products to the Members of Parliament. It offers an opportunity to engage with members of Parliament. As MIS manager I organized a display of the Metasonic table for subject based process modeling. The table allows for people to engage with process modeling on a more interactive manner. I also displayed the enterprise architecture as it is captured in ARIS, a knowledge repository. The aim of the two displays was to create more awareness of a process focused approach to improving business processes and the utilization of existing ICT investments.

The display was a success and several quality discussions ensued with some important stakeholders. Which shows the commitment to greater effectiveness and efficiency. In the past the ICT display consisted mostly about systems and I am happy to see a shift in awareness to acknowledge the importance of processes and business process design.
