19 Background Documentation Disaster 19
20 Documentation Disaster Problem Statement: Inconsistent documentation Difficult to change Difficult to determine how we do business High Level Vision: Manage Business Rules as an asset Increase agility 20
21 Critical Success Factors Documentation Disaster 21
22 Critical Success Factors # 1 One Source of the truth # 2 Traceability # 3 Consistency 22
23 #1 One Source of the Truth 23
24 Rule Inventory Goals Single source of all Business Rules Promote consistency of rule expressions Ensure traceability between business rules and the Business Capability they support What we think we did right Formal Training Promoted the use of natural language Incorporated our Enterprise Glossary into the rule inventory system Rule Governance Board to ensure consistency 24
25 Rule Inventory Observations User struggled with the concept of natural language Integrity of rule Inventory was being compromised Difficult to find all rules associated with a complete decision Traceability between Rule Inventory and Use Case artifacts was not being maintained Actions Taken Revised our Rule expression patterns Initiated an effort to clean up inactive rules Recognized need to better organize rules into complete decisions 25
26 #2 Traceability 26
27 Traceability Rule Inventory Use Case (business capability) Rule metadata is used to tie rules back to the Use Case(s) Rule numbers referenced in a Use Case step relate back to the rule inventory Rules tagged to a step should support that goal 27
28 Use Cases Goals Clearly document requirements and the business rules that support each requirement Ensure consistent documentation Ensure reliable traceability between business rules in a Use Case and the Rule Inventory What we think we did right Modify Use Case training to incorporate BRM policies and procedures Reinforced business accountability for accurate requirements and rules 28
29 Use Cases Observations Rules tagged to a Use Case step did not represent a complete, unambiguous decision Rules tagged to a Use Case step did not support the goal of that step Decisions were being documented as Use Cases Actions Taken Ongoing refactoring of Use Cases to standard format Beginning to change mind set from BRM to Business Decision Management (BDM) Identify and eliminate use cases that represent decisions 29
30 Case Study 30
31 Case Study THE USE CASE Use Case name and goal implies that this is a decision IS 1.15 Determine Confirmation of Coverage is Required Goal: The goal of this use case is to determine whether confirmation of coverage should be generated for a Group product individual agreement on the Growth Platform. The rule in step 3 does not relate to the goal of the step Step 3: The system verifies the product has employee premium contributions BR1: Confirmation of Coverage Not Required Rules tagged to step 4 do not support the goal of that step Step 4. The system retrieves detailed information from the individual agreement. BR2: Active Individual Agreement BR3: Employee Paid Premium BR4: UK Employer Paid Above Guaranteed Issue BR5: Confirmation of Coverage per Product BR6: Confirmation of Coverage for Owner Class BR7: Individual Agreement Approved BR8: Individual Agreement Normal Premium Step 5 is a great goal but it has no rules to support that goal Step 5: The System determines confirmation of coverage is required 31
32 Case Study THE RULES BR8: Confirmation of Coverage must be provided for each product within the Individual Agreement. This is a requirement related to how confirmation of coverage should be provided Step 5: The System determines that Confirmation of Coverage is required BR1: Active Individual Agreement BR2: Individual Agreement Approved BR3: Individual Agreement Normal Premium BR4: Confirmation of Coverage is Not Required BR5: Employee Paid Premium BR6: UK Employer Paid Above Guaranteed Issue BR7: Confirmation of Coverage for Owner Class BR8: Confirmation of Coverage per Product BR7: Confirmation of Coverage must not be provided when all of the following are true for an individual agreement: - the customer organization type is not C Corporation - the eligibility class is Owner's Class No reference to affiliation assumption is that it s both US and UK BR1: An individual agreement must be considered active when at least one of the following is true: - the individual agreement is an approved individual agreement - the individual agreement is a normal premium paying agreement Represents an embedded decision 32
33 Case Study THE TRACEABILITY Use Case Step 5: The System determines that Confirmation of Coverage is required BR1: Active Individual Agreement BR2: Individual Agreement Approved BR3: Individual Agreement Normal Premium BR4: Confirmation of Coverage is Not Required BR5: Employee Paid Premium BR6: UK Employer Paid Above Guaranteed Issue BR7: Confirmation of Coverage for Owner Class BR8: Confirmation of Coverage per Product Rule Number Rule Name Rule Inventory Rule Status Use Case BR1 Active Individual Agreement Active IS 1.15 BR5 Employee Paid Premium Active IS 1.15 BR6 UK Employer Paid Above Guaranteed Issue Active IS 1.15 BR7 Confirmation of Coverage for Owner Class Active IS 1.15 BR8 Confirmation of Coverage per Product Active IS
34 Transformation 34
35 Case Study TRANSFORMATION TO FUTURE STATE Rewrite the Rules as a complete and unambiguous Decision Goal: Determine if Confirmation of Coverage is Required Expected Result: Yes or No Is Individual Agreement Active? BR5598: The individual agreement must be considered active when either of the following is true: - the individual agreement is an approved individual agreement - the individual agreement is a normal premium paying agreement BR 7110 Insured Confirmation of Coverage must be provided for an Individual Agreement when the Customer affiliation is U.S. and all of the following are true: - the Individual Agreement is Active - any product under the Individual Agreement has Employee Contributions (5599) - the Eligibility class is not an Owners Class (5602) - the Customer organization type is not C Corporation (5602) Is Confirmation of Coverage Required? BR 7111 Insured Confirmation of Coverage must be provided for an Individual Agreement when the Customer affiliation is U.K. and all of the following are true: - the Individual Agreement is Active - the Eligibility class is not an Owners Class (5602) - the Customer Organization type is not C Corporation (5602) - the change is not the result of a Group Anniversary Processing Event - at least one of the following is true; - any product under the Individual Agreement has Employee Contributions (5599) - all products under the Individual Agreement are 100% Employer funded and the Coverage amount is less than or equal to the Guaranteed Issue Amount (5600) 35
36 Case Study TRANSFORMATION OF RULES Rewrite the Rules as a complete and unambiguous Decision Goal: Determine if Confirmation of Coverage is Required Expected Result: Yes or No Identify all Use Cases that includes or extends the base use case Replace with requirement and supporting rules Step 5: The System determines that Confirmation of Coverage is required D1: Determine Confirmation of Coverage is required 36
37 Rule Analysis The Game Plan 37
38 Traceability Rule Inventory Use Case (business capability) Decision Service Spec (physical implementation) Rule metadata is used to tie rules back to the Use Case(s) Rule numbers referenced in a Use Case step relate back to the rule inventory Rules tagged to a step should support that goal Rule numbers referenced in the DS spec relate back to the rule inventory The Use Case step being implemented is referenced by the DS spec Naming standard is <BPA_Use Case Name_Step Goal> 38
39 Rule Analysis Goal Receive requirements and supporting business rules early in the SDLC Generate clear, concise artifacts to carry into system design & coding What we think we did right Gained management support to embark on BRM journey Introduced Decision Service technical design concepts & artifcat templates 39
40 Rule Analysis Observations Rules to support steps within Use Cases not fully realized early enough Use Case realization tended to be very focused on business requirements not Rules Rule requirements came in many forms Actions Taken Expanded BRM training Identify rules earlier in the SDLC Include a rules team member in project Initiation and Elaboration phases Educate about Decision Services Decision Services process flow Decision Services Specification Template 40
41 Rule Design & Implementation Plan Execution 41
42 Rule Design & Implementation Goal Traceability from Rule Inventory to system implemented code Provide clear, concise artifacts which enable development of code and test scenarios Generate accurate and efficient code Deliver a higher quality solution at a lower cost What we think we did right Decision Services Specification template (v1) Open dialogue with project teams 42
43 Rule Design & Implementation Observations Lack of business knowledge Traceability breakdown Workload peaks and valleys for developers under short timelines Delayed delivery of code for business testing Costly re-work & re-testing late in the construction phase Actions Taken Developing a program for building business acumen Decision Services Specification template (vx) Decision Services sequence diagram Decision Services schema diagram Align rule developers to delivery teams Design & code review sessions 43
44 #3 Consistency Lack thereof 44
45 Consistency Goal provide clear, concise, and consistent artifacts that can be consumed by all What do we think we did right Gate Reviews to ensure artifacts are consumable 45
46 Consistency Observations Inconsistent artifacts being used to document rules Rules are still being expressed inconsistently Business Rules are not easily understood Project teams are not willing (or allowed) to take project time to improve documentation Actions Taken Education Raise awareness of the impacts 46
47 Wrap It Up 47
48 Final Thoughts If we could do it again.. Manage Decisions Don t try to boil the ocean Involve critical practitioners! Next steps Step back and evaluate current and future state Agility Maturity Build out our roadmap to maturity Formally transform to decision management Education BA and Management Traceability Consistency 48
49 # 1 One Source of the Truth Exposes how we do business Promotes reuse of rules/decisions # 2 Traceability Enables quick and accurate impact assessments # 3 Consistency Enables efficient and quality consumption of artifacts Provides the ability to plug and play resources Results in Quality Deliverables! 49
