BPM and CRIS working together for the ultimate data reliability: Omega-PSIR at Medical University of Łódź

Abstract

It is crucial for the CRIS/IR system to operate on complete and reliable data. For this sake, it is crucial to establish proper policies, roles, and responsibilities in the organisation. Still, some problems frequently occur like duplicate data, improper author matching, problems in reporting where author has more than one affiliation, not sufficient open access compliance etc. During the deployment at the Medical University of Łodz we are evaluating the approach where the Business Process Management System orchestrates the processes crucial for the reliability of CRIS data delegating tasks to people and other systems at the University. We would like to share our early experiences.
