Achieving Process Standardization in Digital Society with ‘ASCP Model’

Abstract

Process standardization is targeted to address the digital society in general and business community in particular for satisfying the needs of inter-enterprise integration standards that provide real-world value (as mentioned in the Object Management Group Mission statement). For this purpose a unified model that allows a better understanding on the nature and significance of strategic alignment in theory and practice called 'Abstraction Standardization Customization Personalization model' (ASCP Model) is conceived based on Abstraction-StandardizationConcretization Methodology. Classification is an important tool for perception and can be found in numerous scientific disciplines. Several application areas of classification are described in the context of information modeling. The usefulness of classification both as a reference model and a methodology is required for the purpose of systematically positioning the macro level problems in various layers defined in the classification scheme and is adopted in ASCP Model. ASCP Model is a classification scheme to drive and derive Process Standardization. Consistency in operations is necessary for claiming the process as a reference to set of standard patterns. Business Process Modeling has undoubtedly emerged as a popular and relevant practice in this regard. Our findings suggest that the critical areas of concern are standardization of processes, process modeling approaches, identification of the value and its proposition in business process modeling and in model-driven process execution. It is believed that ASCP both as a model and methodology is expected to persist as a road for building standard process blocks targeting the digital governance and digital business community in the future.

“…The TAMPA methodology basically when takes the motivation from the underlying methodology called the CRASP (Customer-Resopnd-Adapt-Sense-Provider) methodology (AlSudairi and Vasista, 2014) and supported by the ASCP methodology (i.e. General ABSTRACTION-STANDARDIZATION-CUSTOMIZATION AND PERSONALIZATION levels of information abstraction) while dealing with the adaptability of the information abstraction (AlSudairi and Vasista, 2013) in view of dealing with the communications and standards (e.g. the reference module of CRASP methodology) aspects be they technical, legal and regulatory (The Economics Intelligence Unit, 2017) or social (Casaletto, 2017) and can be re-depicted in the following way for the construction industry context.…”

“…Thus Business Intelligence Ontology building will have the capability to support the exploration of data sources as structured in Data Warehouse to address the range of abstraction levels as mentioned in ASCP model including the personalization of the presentation in passing [23] according to user's profile so that users receive suggestions of relevant filters, relations and services for the purpose of enabling different perspective of an analysis explicitly as in [22].
