Abstract

Managing business process modeling has always been a challenge. With the development of technology and modern events in the world, Collaborative Business Process Modeling (CBPM) has come to the fore. Collaborative business process modeling is mentioned in the framework of Collaborative Business Process Management (cBPM), which represents the management of business processes across organizational boundaries. As digital transformation took off in the fourth industrial revolution, collaborative business process modeling finds its place in the digital transformation of organizations. It also has a significant impact on Business Process Management (BPM). The development of collaborative business process modeling encourages teamwork and the involvement of all team members in the modeling itself. It provides a better understanding of the process and provides the opportunity to share ideas. A review of the literature was performed based on the identified papers. One of the basic problems is the notation itself, which would be used to model business processes. Also, just involving multiple parties (actors) is a problem in itself. The paper tries to present the positive and negative aspects of collaborative business process modeling. This area contains the potential for further research and improvement of the collaborative way of modeling business processes.
