In BMM,Influencersare factors—internal or external—that caninfluence an organization’s ability to achieve its Ends. They can be trends, events, conditions, or stakeholders.

The observation“Younger customers buying more Chilean wine”is a description of amarket trend/conditionin the environment.

That is exactly the role of anInfluencer: a situation or trend that may positively or negatively affect goals and strategies.

If the winery evaluates that trend (for example, calling it anOpportunity), that evaluation would be modeled as anAssessment. The raw trend itself is the Influencer.

Option A (Threat) is atypeof Assessment (negative evaluation of an Influencer).

Option C (Assessment) would be something like “The increased Chilean-wine preference among younger customers is an opportunity for our brand,” which adds judgment.

Option D (Course of Action) would be a response, such as “Launch a Chilean-style product line,” which is a Means, not the trend itself.

So the element“Younger customers buying more Chilean wine”is modeled as anInfluencerin BMM

In BPMN, anEnd Eventrepresents the point where a particularexecution pathin the process terminates. A process may have multiple end events, each ending a different path.

It isnotmerely a pointer to the last activity (A).

It isnot necessarilythe last event generated by the entire process (C), because multiple paths can end independently.

It isnotthe connection point between a Sub-Process and its parent (D); that is the role of the Sub-Process’s boundaries.

So the correct conceptual definition is that an End Eventmarks the end of a path through a process.

Aprocess instanceis complete whenno tokens remain activeanywhere in the process. Thus, if multiple parallel paths all lead (eventually) into the same End Event,allof those tokens must reach some End Event (this one or others) before the process instance is finished. They donothave to arrive simultaneously, but each one must be consumed by an end (or terminate) event.Wikipedia

Therefore:

A is incorrect: the process does not complete when only thefirstpath finishes; other tokens are still active.

B is correct: the process instance completeswhen all parallel paths have finished, i.e., when all tokens have been consumed by End Events (or equivalent termination).

C is incorrect: simultaneity is not required.

D is incorrect: BPMN explicitly allows multiple incoming sequence flows into an End Event; it acts as a simple merge, not a gateway.

So the correct answer isB.

The requirement:

“If step C is not completed within 3 days of thestart of the process, immediately end the process with a failure notification.”

The clean BPMN way is to place A, B, and C inside aSub-Processand attach aninterrupting Timer Boundary Eventto that Sub-Process:

The timer (3 days) starts when the Sub-Process (and thus step A) begins.

If C is completed in time, the normal flow continues to D.

If the timer fires first, itinterruptsthe Sub-Process and flows to a “Notify failure” task and then to an End Event.

OptionDshows exactly this structure: a Sub-Process containing A–B–C with a timer boundary event labeled “3 days” leading to “Notify failure.” The other options place the timer in positions that either start timing from C only or use gateways incorrectly, so they do not satisfy “3 days from start of the process.”

Therefore,Dis correct.

In BPMNCollaboration diagrams, aPool represents a Participant(a business entity, organization, role, or system) taking part in the collaboration.

If a collaboration containstwo white-box pools(i.e., both show internal process detail), that means:

There aretwo separate participants,

Each has itsown process,

They may interact viaMessage Flows.

Thus, the correct interpretation is thateach pool corresponds to one participant, so answerCis correct.

In Six Sigma and statistical process control, which are often referenced within Object Management Group (OMG) Business Process Management practices for performance measurement and process capability analysis, variation in a process is categorized into two types:

Common cause variation (natural variation)

This is the inherent, stable variation built into the process.

It reflects the normal, expected fluctuations when the process is operating in a state of statistical control.

On a control chart, data points that reflect only common cause variationremain within the control limits (UCL and LCL)and do not exhibit specific non-random patterns.

Special cause variation (assignable variation)

This arises from specific, identifiable factors not normally part of the process (e.g., equipment failure, operator error, unusual input material).

On a control chart, it is typically indicated by pointsoutside the control limitsor by defined abnormal patterns (runs, trends, cycles) even if still inside the limits.

In the diagram shown:

The horizontal center line represents theprocess average.

The upper and lower horizontal lines representUCL (Upper Control Limit)andLCL (Lower Control Limit), typically set at ±3σ from the mean.

Zones A, B, and C mark bands of 1-sigma increments from the mean but are allwithinthe control limits.

From a standard Six Sigma / SPC standpoint, and consistent with how OMG-based BPM measurement and control concepts are applied:

All data points inside the UCL and LCLare considered to be a result ofcommon cause variation, provided they do not exhibit specific rule-violating patterns.

Data points outside the UCL or LCLare not common cause; they are indications ofspecial cause variationthat must be investigated and corrected.

In BPMN, aText Annotationis anartifactused purely to add explanatory comments to elements in a diagram. Itnever affects the process flow or execution semantics. OMG specifies that artifacts, including Text Annotations, are connected to flow objects (activities, events, gateways, sequence flows, etc.) usingAssociations, which are dotted (or dashed) lines. The association may be directional or non-directional, but it is still anAssociation, not a Sequence Flow or Message Flow.

Therefore:

Option A is false because Text Annotations donotaffect process flow.

Option B is false because a Text Annotation may be connected toanyflow object (and even to flows), not only to pools, lanes, or groups.

Option C correctly states that a Text Annotation is connected by anAssociation.

Option D is about its graphic shape, but the question asks for adescriptionthat is true in general, which is precisely captured by Option C.

So,Cis the correct answer in accordance with the OMG BPMN 2.0.2 specification.

The diagram shows:

ActivityA, then

Aparallel gatewaythat fans out to three branches (B, C, D), and

Aparallel gatewaythat joins all three beforeE.

This means:

After A, the process may carry outB,C, andDin parallel (or at least independently).

All active branches must complete before moving toE.

Scenario C fits this pattern:

A = enter primary recipients

B = optionally add cc-recipients

C = write the email text

D = optionally add attachments

E = send email

The optional activities (cc and attachments) can be done in any order while writing the text, but all work is complete before sending. The other scenarios are essentially linear or don’t naturally occur in parallel like this.

The BMM aligns directly with theZachman Framework.

Specifically:

TheOwner’s perspectivecorresponds to thebusiness view(row 2).

TheWhy columnof Zachman represents motivation:EndsandMeans.

The BMM’s purpose is to document:

Ends(Goals, Objectives)

Means(Strategies, Tactics)

The influence of external/internal factors

This exactly corresponds to theOwner’s view of the “Why” column.

Thus,Option B is correct.
