Der Autor zeigt am Beispiel von SAP-Technologien, wie Geschaftsprozesse automatisiert und optimiert werden konnen. Die Einsatzpotenziale werden anhand einer Fallstudie erlautert, in der es um die Umweltwirkung von Produkten geht: Auf Grundlage von Daten, die entlang der Wertschopfungskette erhoben werden, erhalten Verbraucher Aufschluss uber die Herkunft der Rohstoffe und die Produktionsverfahren. Die Prozesse werden am Beispiel des produktbezogenen Carbon Footprint (PCF) konzipiert und implementiert, als Modellierungssprachen dienen UML und EPK."
