Abstract

Dynamic markets and new technology developments lead to an increasing number of compliance requirements. Thus, affected business processes must be flexible and adaptable. Ensuring business processes compliance (BPC) is traditionally operationalized by means of controls, which can be described as simple target-performance comparisons. Since such controls are not always suitable for achieving BPC, the view is extended by so-called compliance processes. However, the definition and design of appropriate compliance processes for effective BPC depend on a multitude of process characteristics. To address this issue on a general level, we developed a taxonomy for compliance processes consisting of 9 dimensions and 37 characteristics. As a result, the taxonomy allows researchers and practitioners to classify compliance processes according to the state of the art in a formal way. Furthermore, it provides a systematic fundament for greater flexibility, i.e. an ad hoc integration of compliance processes into ongoing business processes to ensure BPC during runtime.
