Modeling Decision Structures and Dependencies

Decisions are often not adequately modeled. They are hardcoded in process models or other representations, but not always modeled in a systematic way. Because of this hardcoding or inclusion in other models, organizations often lack the necessary flexibility, maintainability and traceability in their business operations.
