Experts in company procedures create business process models that are the designs for business processes. These business process designers define the steps in business processes and dictate the order of the steps and the conditions under which each step should run.

The products that business process designers use to create business process models are ARIS Connect and ARIS Designer or ARIS Architect. The ARIS products offer a wide range of graphical representation tools that enable the designer to focus on the high-level design of a business process without having to get involved in developing the underlying technology.
