During the last decade we have developed the ADEPT next generation process management technology. Its features and its different prototype versions attracted a number of companies. However, an enterprise cannot base the implementation of its process-aware information system (PAIS) on an experimental prototype, especially if maintenance and further development are not assured. At the beginning of 2008, therefore, we founded a spin-off as joint venture with industrial partners to transfer ADEPT into an industrial-strength product version called AristaFlow BPM Suite, and to provide maintenance support for it. The product version is now available for academic and industrial use.

This tool presentation gives insights into the AristaFlow BPM Suite - a next generation process management technology that has originated from our research activities in the ADEPT project. We show how AristaFlow ensures ease of use for process implementers, application developers, and end users. Our overall vision is to realize robust and flexible process support without encountering bad surprises during runtime. We denote such error-safe process executions as Poka-Yoke Workflows.

E-health scenarios demand system-based support of process-oriented information systems. As most of the processes in this domain have to be flexibly adapted to meet exceptional or unforeseen situations, flexible process-oriented information systems (POIS) are needed which support ad-hoc deviations at the process instance level. However, e-health scenarios are also very sensitive with regard to privacy issues. Therefore, an adequate access rights management is essential as well. The paper addresses challenges which occur when flexible POIS and adequate rights management have to be put together.
