Abstract

The objective of this study is to identify the business process for the photonics industry. This business process used the Unified Modeling Methodology (UMM) which was recommended in the ebXML specification. First, the strength of the UMM was described by comparing it with other business process modeling methodologies. Second, the overall business process of the photonics industry was analyzed. The procurement management process was modeled in detail using the UMM. For the business process analysis of the photonics industry, we visited one corporation which we called the A corporation, a member of the photonics industry and interviewed a business process designer and a procurement manager in depth. The procurement management process of the A corporation was represented by a usecase diagram, activity diagram, class diagram, and a sequence diagram according to the UMM structure. The procurement management process modeling of photonics industry using the UMM could be used as a sample for all the standard business processes for the photonics industry. It could be used for improved communication between the procurement manager and business process designer.
