Abstract
An analysis of a business process is received from an analytics application and stored at a decision hub is provided. The analysis may include a problem and a possible solution. The business hub then identifies an entity responsible for the process and the analysis information is sent to the entity. The entity may review the analysis information and determine a decision based on the analysis. For example, the decision approves a change that can be implemented in the process based on the problem and solution received. Information for the decision made is then received and stored at a decision hub. The change in the process may be implemented in an operational application. Result information resulting from the change in the process is then received at the decision hub. The analysis information, decision information, and result information may thus be stored by the decision hub.
