stakeholder group• Identified the potential
respondents• Created survey to identify
problems and set goals• Conducted a survey

• Panic – because we did not see, what we must do further
So what's next

can help us• Developed future
integration process for modeling
• Set up modeling workshop
Modeling
• 4 models – Concept, Problem, Goal and Process
• Detailed modeling for Problem and Goal models including dependencies
What was result
• Connect Problem and Goal models
• Three of goals solve 70% of problems
• There was no single solution, but a complex solution
