Second International Conference: Process Management and the Effective Organization - Sofia
On 14 and 15 October 2008 in Sofia took place the second international conference "Process Management and the Effective Organization. Strategy and Practice”. The event, which was dedicated to the process-based management, was held by Interconsult Bulgaria Ltd. (ICB), a partner of IDS Scheer since 1999 with a lot of experience in the field.
Representatives of popular Bulgarian companies and government organizations like Mtel, Prista Oil, Kozloduy NPP, Cash Services Company, The Railway Administration Executive Agency, The Institute for Nuclear Research and Nuclear Energy and SAP Bulgaria shared their experience in using business processes and the latest tools for business process management (BPM) as a critical success factor for the effective management of their organization and the information technologies.
The turbulent business environment, the constanly growing customer requirements and competition nowadays call for a change in the management model and a transformation of the organization into a live organism to make it more transparent and flexible, said Mr. Stoyan Boev, Managing director of ICB, at the conference opening. The use of a methodology and a software tool for BPM like ARIS makes things a lot easier.
The effective management of an organization depends on the clear definition of its mission, vision and strategy. The ability to measure the achievement of the objectives with the use of Balanced scorecard, the clear definition of each manager's responsibilities and their objective assessment is how this can be achieved, according to Mr. Daniel Kuzmanov, Manager Business development Europe in Prista Oil.

This was one of the topics that Mr. Svetoslav Martinov, manager of department "Processes" at Mtel, shared with the audience.
