The Information Systems Group, challenges

Up-to-date, complete and accurate information has become a necessity to survive in an increasingly competitive world.

Challenges like: • mass customization of products and services• end-to-end process control • dynamic cooperation networks

Mission: Teach & Improve Business Process Engineering

To research and teach:

• design, • use,• and analysis

... of advanced information systems

... for operational business processes

• relation KPI <> process <> information systems

• IT-driven business redesigns

• business-driven IT redesigns

W.F. Rietveld

Student presentation:Introduction

- In 2010:- Final Bachelor project Information Systems- Bachelor Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences for

Healthcare

- Currently:- Master program Operations, Management & Logistics for

Healthcare- Master thesis project Maastricht University Medical Center

(MUMC+)

Student presentation: Clusters

- Combination of Healthcare and Business Process Management cluster

- Why these clusters?

- Healthcare domain: cure more people, be more flexible, safe and high quality care, less resources, competitive environment

- Improve safety, efficiency and effectiveness of business processes in healthcare (healthcare and process-oriented view)

Student presentation: Courses and Information Systems Group

- Completed courses: Business Process Management, Executable Models of Logistic Processes, Healthcare Business Networks, Data Mining & Process Mining, Software Requirements Engineering

- Information Systems Group: expertise in different research clusters, stimulating support, well accessible, open-minded, collaboration with industries

Student presentation: Master thesis project

Master thesis project (MUMC+):

- Project performed in hospital of academic hospital Maastricht:

- Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of endoscopic processes and medication preparation process.

- Real-life case studies as basis for scientific research

-

Student presentation: Master thesis project

Master thesis project (MUMC+):

- The applicability of general-purpose (CPN-tools) and application-oriented simulation software (Flexsim Healthcare)

- Main results:Evaluation framework designed and applied to case studies.

Patient processes: high score application-oriented software.Supporting process: no obvious difference between software.
