Abstract

This work aims to present the potential of the modern concepts for business process engineering by taking into account a classical Bulgarian economic study in this field. The ARIS methodology for integration of information systems is applied to the economic bases for production management automation developed by the Bulgarian academic Evgeni Mateev in year 1974. Considered in a positive scientific context, without commentary on the socio-political implications of the ideas presented by Mateev (1974), the results of the comparative analysis confirm the concept of production management automation, proposed in the work of academic Mateev. A possible upgrade of the existing corporate model of production planning in correspondence to the central planning procedure of Mateev (1974) is demonstrated in the last section of the work. It is considered as the best proof for the compatibility of the two automation concepts which are constructed independently in time and for application under different socio-economic conditions. The resulting combined version of integrated system for multi-industrial production management is presented as an alternative to the single-production models which are currently studied in the training courses in integrated management with information systems.
