ENTERPRISE MODELLING Enterprise modelling is the abstract representation, description and
definition of the structure, processes, information and resources of an identifiable business, government body, or other large organization.
It deals with the process of understanding an enterprise business and improving its performance through creation of enterprise models. This includes the modelling of the relevant business domain (usually relatively stable), business processes (usually more volatile), and Information technology.

BUSINESS PROCESS MODELLING Business process modelling (BPM) is the activity of representing processes
of an enterprise, so that the current ("as is") process may be analyzed and improved in future ("to be").
Business process modelling is typically performed by business analysts and managers who are seeking to improve process efficiency and quality.
The process improvements identified by business process modelling may or may not require Information Technology involvement, although that is a common driver for the need to model a business process, by creating a process master.
