Catalog of Business Processes
=============================
At the team status meeting Thursday of X12/EWG, we discussed the following:
+ Stephen de Jong pointed out that the normative categories and groups in
the Catalog should be tied into a known standard.  Bill McCarthy mentioned
the Supply Chain Council and Michael Porter's Value Chain. Porter's Value
Chain is taught in most MBA programs and, thus, should be familiar to most
business people (which is good since we are targeting the Worksheets and BP
Editor to business people).  Porter's Value Chain has been expanded and
should be useful to us.  Bill to provide the list of categories.

+ Business Process Descriptions.  John Yunker has a list of PIP Descriptions
that can be used to seed the business process description section of the
Catalog.  Jennifer Loverage to contact John.

+ Dave will bring up copies of the latest Catalog to Vancouver.


See you in Vancouver!

Cheers,
Brian Hayes
