A few weeks ago, Keith Swenson stumbled upon Process Wiki (http://wiki.process.io/), the brainchild of Paul van Erk and was amazed at what he discovered. He found that anyone can join to be a member, collaborate either by contributing more process examples, or by commenting on the existing ones. Processes can be uploaded & downloaded as XPDL files (a huge improvement over GIF files) and the site has a converter to visualize the processes as BPMN diagrams. Imagine the implications it has on the BPM movement!
Swenson then goes on to cite the case of Clay Richardson, an analyst for Forrester who recommends that all companies should have an internal “Process Wiki” which documents all their processes for employees to read and understand and makes the static “process manual” outdated!
At this point, Process Wiki has about 40 members, and more than 20 example processes on the site.
