Basic EPC Diagrams

A business process is what a collection of the structured activities that produce some specific products (or services) for the customers can be called. Any business process can be visualized as a flowchart where the sequence of activities with interleaving decision points are mentioned. It can also look in a way of a process matrix of a sequence of different activities with the relevance rules that can be based on data in the process.

Business processes can be designed for adding the value for the customer. Although, they should not include any unnecessary activities. The outcome of any properly designed business process is (value an increased efficiency as well as an increased effectiveness. Any business process can be modeled through a large number of different techniques. They comprise the sequential sub-processes with alternative paths which may depend on the particular conditions if applicable.

Being operated by one or more business functional units, many business processes are known for emphasizing the importance of the “process chain”. An event-driven process chain (EPC) is one of the types of a flowchart that can be used for modelling the business processes.

EPCs can be always used for configuring an enterprise resource planning implementation. They can be also useful for improving the business processes. The Event-driven Process Chain Diagrams solution extends ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with EPC examples, templates and vector stencil library so it can be used for drawing the EPC diagrams assisting in planning the resources as well as improving the business processes by using the EPC (Event-driven Process Chain) flowcharts.

The Event-driven Process Chain Diagrams solution can be a great tool for making the EPC diagrams for consultants, event managers, designers of events, HR-managers, recruiters, journalists and bloggers, editors and designers, innovators, scientists, researchers, inventors, designers, engineers, technologists, venture capitalists, angel investors, science and higher educations’ organizers, scientific and technical print and electronic editors, scientific and technical writers and journalists and many other specialists from many different areas of business.


There is 1 stencil library containing 22 vector objects in the Basic EPC Diagrams solution.
