What is TopEase Process Management?

TopEase Process Management is a BPM (Business Process Management) software solution for the centralised documentation, visualisation, evaluation and control of business processes. Organisations link processes to roles, assets, risks, controls and key performance indicators within a shared database.

The solution is aimed at those responsible for processes, as well as those responsible for governance, risk, quality and organisational matters. Unlike pure modelling tools, TopEase forms part of a modular GRC (Governance, Risk and Compliance) platform: processes are not mapped in isolation, but are managed as part of a digital organisational model.

Why Excel, Visio and separate documents are not sufficient for managing processes

In many companies, process documentation is scattered across various formats: Visio diagrams, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets and isolated tools. The result: outdated process maps, unclear responsibilities, duplicate data maintenance and a lack of traceability when changes are made.

TopEase consolidates all process information into a single database:

  • No duplicate data entry: one piece of information, one central location
  • Up-to-date process maps: changes are visible immediately
  • Clear responsibilities: every process has a process owner
  • Visible dependencies: links to risks, controls and assets
  • Greater traceability: for management, audit and internal audit

Managing process governance in a structured way

TopEase goes beyond mere modelling and supports transparent process governance: process standards, responsibilities, approvals and key performance indicators are managed centrally. TopEase supports the following governance elements:

Process Owner

What TopEase does

  • Clear allocation of responsibilities for each process

Versioning & Approval

What TopEase does

  • Changes go through defined approval processes

Targets & KPIs

What TopEase does

  • Setting, measuring and monitoring process objectives

Change history

What TopEase does

  • Automated monitoring and KRI tracking for risks and targets

Features of TopEase’s process management software

TopEase covers the entire process lifecycle: from documentation and modelling to control, right through to integration with risks, controls and assets. The following features demonstrate how scattered process information can be transformed into a centralised, manageable process landscape:

Centralised process documentation


Centralise and version-control all business processes in a process repository rather than having them scattered across various files.


Result: A centralised location for all processes, without having to search through file folders.

Process maps and value chains

Map out process maps and end-to-end value chains, from the high-level view down to the individual processes.

 
Result: An overview of the entire process landscape at a glance.

Process metrics and dashboards

Define, measure and analyse process key performance indicators (KPIs) using dashboards.


Result: Process performance becomes measurable – enabling well-informed decisions rather than relying on gut instinct.

Roles, process owners and responsibilities

Clearly assign roles and process owners to ensure clear lines of responsibility.

 
Result: Everyone knows who is responsible for which process.

Workflows and change tracking

Document approvals, versioning and changes in a way that allows them to be traced.


Result: Every process change can be verified, and you are provided with an audit-ready history.

Importing and integrating existing data

Import existing process data and integrate it into the IT landscape via the REST API.

Result: No need to start from scratch, as existing processes will be carried over.

BPMN and swimlane diagrams

Model standard-compliant and clear processes using BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) and swimlane diagrams.


Result: Processes that are clearly understood by both business departments and IT.

Links to assets, risks and controls

Link processes to architectural assets, risks and controls.

Result: An integrated GRC makes interrelationships visible, rather than isolated diagrams.

How Process Management with TopEase Works in Practice

Processes can be documented, maintained, evaluated, measured, controlled and changed comprehensively and without redundancy

More than just a process modelling software tool

TopEase is not a standalone charting or workflow tool. The process module forms part of TopEase’s modular GRC platform and shares a common database with other modules.

The process management module can be integrated with other TopEase modules, including risk management (NFR), control management (ICS) and asset management (EAM).

Who is TopEase Process Management suitable for?

TopEase Process Management is aimed at anyone who wishes not only to document business processes, but also to actively manage them and integrate them within the organisational context – from process owners to governance, quality and risk teams:

When is TopEase the right choice?

TopEase is particularly suitable when business processes are not to be modelled in isolation, but are to be linked to governance, risk, control and asset information.

For pure task automation, process mining or low-code execution, supplementary systems may be useful depending on the requirements. TopEase focuses on interconnected, controllable process governance within a digital organisational model, rather than on the fully automated execution of individual tasks.
