Description

Creativity as the prerequisite for innovation is an important competitive factor for contemporary organizations. Processes that contain creative tasks differ from conventional business processes in many respects, e.g. that they involve creative persons, have an extremely high demand for flexibility and are characterized by particular risks. The subject of the project "ManKIP" is the interdisciplinary analysis of creativity and creativity-intensive processes from the perspective of business process management. It aims to develop a flexible IT architecture to support such processes in organizations. Traditional IT-based process management neglects creative processes regarding their flexible and unstructured character. Based on a theoretical model, a conceptual framework for IT support of creativity-intensive processes is developed. The framework integrates technical components and serves as a basis for the implementation of a flexible IT infrastructure as well as an approach to risk management. Modeling, analysis and improvement of creativity-intensive processes are supported by the development of a process modeling technique tailored to the particular demands for flexibility and adaptability.
