The Business Function Scheme enables us to: Promote, publish and syndicate information assets by business perspectives Categorize information assets by business functions Associate information resources to the Bank�s business architecture to support workflow management Develop an integrated, enterprise view of how resources are allocated to business functions. Information assets are categorized to only one level within a single branch (hierarchical path) of the structure. “Goals” are what targets we want to set. Data Management Program is responsible for: Providing overall guidance, prioritization and policy related to the Business Function Scheme and the Enterprise Business Architecture Establishing and implementing quality standards and procedures to ensure that data and reference sources are managed consistent with the needs and requirements of business stewards, custodians, technical stewards and consumers Implementing the management, use, protection and retention policy recommendations defined by the BFS Custodians and the BFS Stewards Peer reviewing and authorizing the BFS Principles and Best Practices document Define and coordinate data stewardship guidelines and best practices for the Business Function Scheme Ensuring the availability of resources to support the publication and accessibility of the BFS Provision of support to all governance agents by facilitating and arbitrating variations or disagreements which cannot be resolved through routine governance processes Information Custodians Who Are BFS Custodians? For description of the attributes required to manage the Business Function Scheme, please see REF _Ref147740856 \h \* MERGEFORMAT Annex 4. Information assets may be categorized to multiple branches of the tree. Policies and Procedures ... best practices down to the following five Best Practice areas: • RETENTION • POLICIES & PROCEDURES • ACCESS & INDEXING • COMPLIANCE & ACCOUNTABILITY • DISPOSAL For each of these Best Practice areas we have included an overview and guiding principles. Business Activity is a description of work that forms one logical step within a process. ISGEC has defined a set of criteria for World Bank Lines of Business.

Where an application cannot consume directly, there should be an established process to communicate and update changes to ensure that the values are synchronized. “Guiding principles” are how we want to operate. Beijing Gas led the translation efforts with support from EDF. An acceptable way is to have the acronym after the full name in the label, i.e. Content Creators throughout the organization; Content Publishers throughout the organization; Consumers are responsible for: Ensuring that all corporate information systems are in a business function �ready-state�; when a system is not in such state, requests are made to ISGIQ Implementing the BFS values in the systems; estimates costs of proposed changes in terms of amount of data to be retagged, additional storage and processing burden, software changes, etc. Metrics for Principle 7 (Enumeration and Hospitality): Audit reveals that: new categories were added without redefining the enumeration strategy over a five year period no major schema redefinition has been required each category in the schema has a notation value that accurately describes its place in the schema the schema can be reconstructed solely from its enumeration Metrics for Principle 8 (Exhaustiveness): Audit reveals that: both the current business of the organization and the historical business of the organization is reflected in the scheme superceded functions are retained in the scheme for information retrieval purposes, but not for classification purposes both current and archived values are accessible for information access purposes Metrics for Principle 9 (Helpful, Consistent, and Relevant Sequence): Wherever categories are represented in the schema, their order represents the institutional practice Annual review ensures that the sequence represented in the institutional reference source represents institutional practice Metrics for Principle 10: Naming and Notation Conventions: Audit reveals that: category names contain no acronyms (acceptable procedure as defined above), abbreviations, initialisms, general or meaningless words; all category names reflect its intent, meaning and context. Best Practice Principles for Medication Review Guidance Document . How is the change executed? (Ascertainability) The name of a category should be descriptive of what is contained in the category The coverage of a category should be known simply by reading the category name The category name should represent the focus of the category A category�s name should reflect its parent category Acceptable PracticeUnacceptable PracticeProject SupervisionSupervisionBudget ControlControllingPrinting and Copying ServicesPrintingFinancial Reporting and AnalysisReporting and Analysis Principle 2: No two categories should overlap or should have exactly the same scope and boundaries. The best way to avoid headaches is to be proactive. Informs the work on defining and testing a new set of principles that will help HR professionals make better decisions. Industry, Members, Publications By Matt Barry October 1, 2020. The MDK remains stable while the category name may change. What type of changes can be made? An application is compliant if: The values it uses are aligned with the BFS source values MDKs for those source values are used There is an automated method of capturing and updating the scheme values The updates are frequent and routine Consuming SystemsStart DateAuditsCompliance w/ Business RulesePublish/CMS2003YesUnified Case Management system2003YesRemedy System2003NoeServices2005NoYellow PagesLearning Management System (LMS)2005NoTeragram2004NoBF Thesaurus2001 Annex 2: Evaluation Criteria For Levels of the Business Architecture Criteria for determining a Line of Business (Level 2) A Line of business (LOB) is defined in terms of lines or groups of products or services. Question 5. It does not provide guidance on how to create or maintain the values in a classification scheme. For each principle a definition is presented, best practices are described, examples are provided. Preferred NamePrevious NameImplementation Completion and Results ReportImplementation Completion ReportPartner CountriesMiddle Income Countries (MICs)Fragile StatesLow-Income Countries Under Stress (LICUS) Principle 6: When differentiating a category, it should give rise to at least two subcategories. Business Processes are represented as Level 3 in the BFS. Best Practices. When no other sequence of the categories is more helpful, they should be arranged alphabetically by their names in current use (i.e. Governance Process for the Business Function Scheme Governance Model The World Bank owns the Business Function Scheme. Facilities, Technology & Information AssetsLines of business are supported by facilities (office space, equipment, and supplies; consume energy; use communication resources; technology assets; data/information assets)Comparable Industrial Sector/CompetenciesMost lines of business within organizations have a comparable external economic product or service line/sector. RisksChanges in a particular step or subprocess will inherit the business continuity value of their line of business parent. Business Rule 6. Business Rules and Principles for Implementing the Business Function Scheme The following ten business rules pertain to how the business function scheme is implemented in information systems. After consultation has been completed, through the communication of the final decision record to the requester through the UCM service account; IQ team will close the UCM case when request is completed; UCM will record the change request and final decision is entered in MultiTes version of the BFS. This typically results in a structure which is unbalanced and unpredictable, and essentially unusable for its intended purpose. Assets associated with retired categories should retain their original metadata in tact and be accessible through traced categories. Assets are associated with Business Areas only through aggregation. The compliance rating is determined by adherence to best practices for consuming and maintaining the Business Function Scheme values. 05/31/2017; 2 minutes to read; i; v; e; M; b +3 In this article. Best Practice Toolkit The Toolkit consists of a set of recommended Guides, Synopses and Tools, which support the uptake and implementation of the Reducing Methane Emissions: Best Practices. Communicating with Office of Student Engagement (OSE) Staff. Business rules help to ensure that: We have consistent growth and development of the scheme over time; The scheme is consistently engineered and implemented wherever it is used The scheme is consistently used wherever it is available Business Rules apply to all levels of the Scheme, to all applications and to all uses.
