“With the resurgence of interest in BPR necessary to build Enterprise Architectures (EA), Wizdom has been working very hard to continue to provide the very best tools,” said Wizdom Founder, Dennis E. Wisnosky. “This release is the first of many new products and updates which will provide the ability for end-to-end compliance with both the DoDAF and the DARS for the US Defense Department and compliance with the OMB Federal Enterprise Architecture Framework (FEAF).”

Benefits of ProcessWorks! Version 6.1

• Exports the semantics of IDEF0 to Microsoft Visio.
• Imports OV-5 from DARS and generates IDEF0 Diagrams.
• Generates Use Case Diagrams automatically.
• Provides enhanced properties dialogue that generates Rummler-Brache Swim Lane diagrams automatically in Visio along with time, cost, and quality properties.
• Provides the ability to build DoDAF work products OV-2, OV-4, OV-5, OV-6A, OV-7, SV-4, AV-2, and SV-11.

Building complete and compliant DoDAF products is as easy as 1, 2, 3 with Wizdom's ProcessWorks! 6.1

1. Build the IDEF0 activity model (OV-5) complete with the Integrated Glossary (AV-2). Use the Integrated Text Diagram to build the executive summary of your architecture – the AV-1. It stays automatically linked to the OV-5, as does the AV-2.
   
   
2. Generate a Use Case Diagram with a simple mouse click.
   
   
3. As the IDEF0 diagram is built, ProcessWorks! knows the primary inputs and outputs. At a mouse click, ProcessWorks! uses this to generate an activity model in the Rummler-Brache swim lane format in Visio. Here additional data can be added. If the user has added IER properties to the IDEF0 diagram, they are also automatically migrated to the Visio activity model.
   
   

AV-1 is displayed as an IDEF0 text diagram with the built in template.

AV-2 is maintained in ProcessWorks! for all DoDAF products.
