Abstract: In the modern competitive era, the viability of a business depends on its flexibility and its ability to adapt to any circumstance. One way of achieving this is through modeling and management of the business processes in use. Business Process Management (BPM) is a systematic approach for making organization’s processes more efficient and dynamic in order to meet the changing needs of businesses. This paper provides a review on BPM and modeling. Through the study of industrial robots and particularly, the industrial robotic arms, we better understand how business processes are modeled and how this method facilitates the identification and optimization of the current processes. The modeling of the processes was carried out using the Business Process Management and Notation 2.0 (BPMN 2.0) methodology. More specifically, the overall operation of a robotic arm was captured, while complex sub-process and the servo motor operation, which is the driving force of the industrial applications, were analyzed in depth. The Bizagi Modeler tool was used to visualize the processes of the industrial robotic arms.
