Software processes are business processes too
Peter B. Henderson · 2002
There is much that is common to business processes and to software development processes; so much, in fact, that it is useful to consider each as a reflection of the other. I argue, on the one hand that the software development process is a special case of the more general notion of the business process. On the other hand, I argue that there is much we have learned in solving the problems of process modelling and process support for software development processes which is directly applicable in the realm of business processes, in particular support for change and evolution.>
