 * This session continued the discussions at the recent CETIS [Conference session] with a view to taking forward some of the ideas generated with recommendations to JISC.

The session had a small group discussion format, and looked at recent developments and some of the emerging challenges and pressures on the coordination and control of business processes (eAdministration), to identify gaps and priority areas for future development work. Currently, business processes have been executed using a wide range of methods and approaches; however a common criticism of current systems is that processes are all too often inflexible, making it harder for organisations to change and adapt.
