THE DECISIVE STEP AHEAD 20 YEARS OF BOC GROUPwww.boc-group.com
THANK YOUFOR 20 SUCCESSFUL YEARS!July 2015 marks the 20th anniversary of the BOC Group. Prof. Dr. Dimitris Karagiannis and a few fellow campaigners from the then existing BPMS research group of the University of Vienna have founded the company in 1995. Ever since, an international medium-sized company has emerged and has become an innovative and successful market player for IT-based management tools and associated services.
Our journey has always been characterised by continuous change. From a small business with centralised operation, we have become a multi-national corporation with distributed areas of responsibility. We have grown from a one-product business to a company with an extensive product and service portfolio and this by constantly adjusting to new technological frameworks. In addition to this portfolio we have actively and sustainably expanded to new regions and markets.
At the same time, this change has always been accompanied by some constant factors: in strongly cooperative relationships with our clients we have always been open to dialogue and have never considered ourselves a “unidirectional provider”. We promote innovation through our experience, which we have gained through a large number of challenging projects, and we integrate this experience actively in the continuous development of our products and services. Furthermore, we emphasise diversity among our employees that, today, originate from more than 20 nations and deliver creative ideas and solutions from different perspectives.
Since its foundation, the BOC Group has had the opportunity to participate in a variety of exciting projects and initiatives with a vast number of interesting personalities. We would like to sincerely thank our clients, employees and partners for this journey and are already looking forward to the years ahead!
Vienna, June 2015

Business Process Management (BPM) focuses on the core of your organisation: how products and services are being delivered to you, within your organisation and eventually to your clients, and which important success factors contribute to the end-to-end processes. BPM helps to design and optimise the process architecture and business processes along your value chain.This brings important benefits: by introducing sustainable busi-ness process management, your organisation is able to align more flexibly to changing requirements and pursue your goals and those of your clients more effectively. Increased trans-parency allows for more efficient use of resources and high-lights improvement potential to all stakeholders. We provide each and every role with specific views and dashboards within the BPM life cycle and help your organisation on the way to process excellence and process innovation.
SERVICES SUSTAINABLEAND COMPREHENSIVE Business and IT Management is all about engagement with rather complex situations requiring detailed attention and transparent decisions. Every management decision in an organisation is accompanied by high expectations and high pressure for a smooth change towards improvement. Out of 20 years of hard work, a large number of projects, and extensive experience, we have become renowned developers and providers of products and services based on best practices, comprehensive know-how and international standards. We deliver the highest quality to our customers in five main management domains.

EAM Enterprise Architecture
Management
Enterprise architectures need to be responsive to change and aim at providing a comprehensive and coherent management system. Therefor Enterprise Architecture Management (EA or EAM) focuses on optimising an often fragmented congregation of capabilities, processes, applications and technologies to support business strategy in the best possible way.A professional enterprise architecture programme allows for developing your business towards its target and helps you align your IT, so that your business services get delivered in a cheaper, faster and better way. Furthermore, the increased transparency allows your organisation to analyse poten-tial impacts of upcoming changes in a comprehensive yet timely manner. We can help to shape your EA by providing the tools and techniques. Every EA stakeholder in your organ-isation will be able to contribute to and to benefit from your EA management system.
BPM EAMOn a long run, every management sys-tem requires stakeholder-centric work-flows which can be triggered manually or automatically, according to significant events, deadlines, achievements, unex-pected issues and findings etc. Thus, re-certification of processes, evaluation of risks, control assessments, compliance surveys and many other management processes are an integrated part of the stakeholder-centric management system. Business Execution (BEX) is the next generation user experience within our products and services, integrating people- centric workflows: designed by the busi-ness and executed by the business.
Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) are three important pillars of or-ganisational management that aim at operating the business in pursuit of its goals while considering its organisational structure, potential hindering risks and adherence to given guidelines. In view of the recent shift from purely financial risks towards operational risks, continu-ous monitoring and control is inevitable for addressing these risks appropriately. We operationalise their definition, analy-sis, assessment and control and demon-strate how risk management becomes an established strategic management process in your organisation.
Once an organisation manages to bring transparency into its process architec-ture, Business Process Analysis and Optimisation (BPA) is the next step to-wards a process-managed enterprise. Design and improvement principles fol-low your business strategy and reflect quality, time, costs, industry bench-marks, target operating models, process interfaces, resource allocation, customer touch points and many more. Whether you expect a big change focusing on one significant improvement potential or a rather evolutionary approach, we help you set-up and drive successful Business Process Analysis and Optimisation.
