AbstractPurpose -The purpose of this paper is to present a methodology that may be used to perform evaluation of business process management (BPM) methodologies. As this area lacks proper formalized approaches, the aim of the publication is to promote the new approach, proposed by the authors. Design/methodology/approach -The authors analyse related methodologies and theoretical background. Based on that, they suggest an evaluation approach, which is used to verify correctness of a semantic BPM (SBPM) methodology. Findings -The proposed evaluation methodology has been practically tested. Additional interviews have been conducted and interviewees stress high value of the approach. The presented evaluation methodology was validated on the example of the SBPM methodology used in a European integrated project.Research limitations/implications -The results of this paper can be used to guide development and verify correctness of new BPM methodologies. Practical implications -The paper demonstrates how validation of BPM methodologies can be conducted in practice. Originality/value -The approach presented in the paper is the first comprehensive approach to provide methodology for evaluating BPM methodologies.
