TA2: Process Model



Our team has decided to analyze and overview AlphaLab’s application process for their software accelerator program. This process is the most essential process the company has, as it is central to the company’s functionality. We have been granted permission the use the company name and our interviewee’s name. Here is the company website.

The process starts when the company announces the opening of their application period. From there the company, including our interviewee Aaron Tainter, will recruit possible candidates and encourage them to apply to the program. These applicants will submit their applications via AlphaLab’s website. The applications go in to an application repository where the data is stored. Aaron Tainter and others will review the applications over a 3-4 week period, and then interview the selected candidates over the next month. When they have selected their initial candidates, they will send out an email to interview them. They will send out emails to denied applications notifying them of the company’s decision. Once they complete two interviews, AlphaLab will select final candidates. As with denied applications, AlphaLab will notify the second round applicants of their denial into the program. The successful final candidates will receive the offer, and complete a background check that is performed by a third party. If they pass, they will begin the accelerator program. This ends the process.

This diagram is made in BPMN format in accordance with the requirements outlined in our textbook, MIS Essentials 4th Edition by David Kroenke. The book talks about swimlanes that separate specific tasks or roles performed by a certain person or group of people. Then there are the specific activities, connected by data and sequence flows.
