BiSL® Foundation [BISL]

OVERVIEW

The Business Information Services Library (BiSL®) provides a framework for the field of work that lies between the connection of ICT to the business process. It is precisely this connection that is often not optimal. The BiSL® process model provides insight into all the main processes of the work field, and the relationships between them. It provides starting points for improving the processes, including through best practices, and it provides a uniform terminology.
