Our re­search: Rig­or­ous and rel­ev­ant

„Wir sind international bekannt für unsere führende Expertise zu Digitalen Dienstleistungen, dynamischen Geschäftsprozessen sowie der Gestaltung und Emergenz innovativer Informationssysteme.”

Prof. Dr. Daniel Beverungen,
Lehrstuhlinhaber

For around 20 years, we have been developing new methods and tools for developing, providing and analysing digital services. Our conceptualisation of intelligent services (Smart Services), the DIN SPEC 33453 "Development of digital service systems" and our research work on digital service ecosystems have been formative.

Business process management (BPM) also strongly characterises our research work. We analyse the dynamic effects that transform business processes in everyday operations. A specific research focus is the question of how structural process innovations can be developed from workarounds.

Under the umbrella of the SICP, we develop new solution perspectives, functions and utilisation scenarios for ERP systems such as SAP S4/HANA, digital data rooms and platforms together with strong industry partners. One particular area of expertise is our use case Networked Cultural Platforms as part of the Data Space Culture project - an IT flagship project of the German government.
