    Abstract

    Modern universities are by any standard complex organizations that, from an IT perspective, present a number of unique
    challenges. This paper will propose establishing a business process reference framework. The benefit to the users would
    be a better understanding of the system landscape, business process enablement, collection of performance data and
    systematic reuse of existing community experience and knowledge. For these reasons reference models such as the SCOR
    (Supply Chain Operations Reference), DCOR (Design Chain Operations Reference) and ITIL (Information Technology
    Infrastructure Library) have gained popularity among organizations in both the private and public sectors. We speculate
    that this success can be replicated in a university setting. Furthermore the paper will outline how the research group
    suggests moving ahead with the research which will lead to a reference model.
