BIC for LeanIX

Nowadays, nearly every business process is in connection with at least one IT system and vice versa. The close connection of process and IT views thus allows extensive analyses and the data-driven planning and optimization of processes and the IT landscape.
With BIC for LeanIX, the technical integration of the BPM tool BIC and the EAM tool LeanIX, GBTEC enables the reciprocal transfer of corporate processes and IT architecture.

Companies that use BIC Process Design as their central repository for process information and depict their IT landscape in LeanIX are ensured of non-overlapping, bi-directional exchange of process and IT data with BIC for LeanIX. This means: more transparency and a higher data quality. The depiction of common core data - free of redundancies - eases not only the cooperation of teams but also improves data-based analyses and decisions within the complex IT environment.

Object information in LeanIX is transferred via interface to BIC Process Design. Existing objects are automatically updated during synchronization. If the object information is not yet available in BIC Process Design, a new object is created initially. Newly imported data is available as catalog entries and can be used immediately in process modeling. If an object is deleted in LeanIX, it is marked as "invalid" in BIC Process Design. In existing process flows, this object remains in place for the time being in order not to compromise the business consistency of the process. Objects marked as "invalid" can be easily identified and replaced in the central object catalog in BIC Process Design. A graphical highlighting of invalid objects in the process diagram also makes them directly visible to modelers.

BIC for LeanIX automatically identifies all processes with relevant attributes for the Process Fact Sheets from LeanIX and automatically transfers them to LeanIX via the interface. In addition, previously imported LeanIX objects used in process models and linked to process data are also related to each other in LeanIX.

Via the interface, existing fact sheets are updated or new ones are created and enriched with process data from BIC Process Design. BIC Process Design is the leading system and overwrites manually changed process flows in LeanIX. To ensure that only quality-assured and approved content is transferred, BIC for LeanIX transfers only the processes published in BIC Process Design. If processes have been closed in BIC Process Design, they are marked as "invalid" in LeanIX.
