The modularization of services has attracted some attention in recent years. Such modularization improves the performance, maintenance and reuse of smaller, more manageable pieces of component parts, and also provides insight into the overall structure of the business processes. This paper develops a methodology to determine the modularization services of business processes. This methodology breaks process into modules, or groups of related services based on the observation that a module can be defined as a group of services having high cohesion and low coupling. The approach taken to reach this solution is illustrated with an operation case.
