ARIS VRM
Do More with Your Value Chains: The Value Chain Reference Model (VRM)
ARIS VRM enables fast, high-fidelity process visibility, analysis, and optimization, combining the reference model defined by the Value Chain Group (VCG) with the powerful modeling and analysis functionalities of ARIS Platform. This unique combination enables practitioners and consulting companies to efficiently design, evaluate, and improve a company’s value chain processes based on VCG-endorsed standards.
ARIS VRM promotes consensus in value chain design with regard to planning, governing, and execution activities, while helping to drive continuous improvement and transformation of processes. It provides a robust reference dictionary, including a common terminology base and standard process descriptions to organize and analyze the activities that make up the value chain. ARIS VRM also contains fully interconnected inputs and outputs to and from every activity, a metrics glossary, and a set of recommended practices.
Key benefits:
- Comprehensive reference model for value-chain processes and related structures across multiple process levels, including metrics, best practices, and inputs/outputs as a common language throughout the value chain.
- Flexible configuration of the predefined value chains for reuse of ARIS VRM elements and addition of information, such as resources involved, IT systems, and more detailed process flows.
- Sophisticated functionality for analyzing processes prior to implementation, making it possible to pinpoint bottlenecks, compare alternative value chain options, identify system/organization breaks, and more.
- Identify required information system capabilities: After configuring and enhancing the process repository, ARIS Platform can easily integrate the company-specific models with major enterprise-wide applications, including SAP and business process execution products.
- Compare process performance to targets: After allocating predefined KPIs and defining performance targets for the value chains, companies can measure and compare their process performance based on the KPIs.
