2. BPMN exercise: Returns management at CBI
If a bicyclist returns a bike they purchased from a CBI retailer (e.g. Philly Bikes), then the retailer provides the bicyclist a new bike, tags the returned bike, and annotates the bicyclist’s complaint. Philly then ships the returned bike back to CBI to determine where the fault occurred. CBI identifies the supplier of the faulty part, charges the supplier, and returns the defective part. The supplier verifies the faulty part and if they accept responsibility for the fault, they reimburse CBI. If the supplier rejects responsibility for the fault, then they send CBI an explanation letter.
