This question's explanation and your answers so far.
問 23
Incorrectア
BABOK (Business Analysis Body of Knowledge) is a guide (body of knowledge) that systematizes knowledge about business analysis; its developing body is the IIBA, not the OMG. It is also not a modeling notation for diagramming business processes, so it is incorrect.
- イ
正解 The correct answer is イ, 'BPMN'. BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) is a business process modeling method and notation maintained and managed by the OMG (Object Management Group); it visualizes the flow of a business process using unified graphical symbols such as start, end, task, and branch (gateway). It is also standardized as an international standard (ISO/IEC 19510), and only イ satisfies all three conditions given in the question: 'maintained by the OMG', 'a business process modeling method and notation', and 'standardized as an international standard'.
Incorrectウ
BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) refers to a management approach (a form of outsourcing) in which a company entrusts part of its own business processes to an external specialist provider. It is neither a modeling method or notation nor an international standard maintained by the OMG, so it is incorrect.
Incorrectエ
BPR (Business Process Reengineering) is a management-reform concept of fundamentally rethinking and redesigning existing business processes to achieve dramatic improvement; it is not a notation based on graphical symbols. It also does not meet the conditions of being maintained by the OMG or standardized under ISO/IEC, so it is incorrect.
- Remember that BPMN is a modeling notation that represents business processes with unified graphical symbols, maintained by the OMG and standardized as an international standard (ISO/IEC 19510).
- Distinguish the similar acronyms and do not mix them up: BPMN (notation) / BPR (fundamental redesign of business processes) / BPO (outsourcing of operations) / BABOK (body of knowledge for business analysis).
