Organizations make thousands of automated, operational decisions every week—from targeted pricing of products to determining which customers get automatic approval, from customizing website navigation and content to satisfying regulatory mandates. How well they make these decisions drives their profitability, makes or breaks their reputation and powers customer satisfaction.
How these decisions are made is one of a company’s most important assets. All too often these decisions are not explicitly managed, assessed or even visible to the company’s business experts. Instead they are buried in the company’s software code and policy manuals, where they are hidden from view and may even be contradictory. Decision modeling gives you the power to change this, to make your organization’s decisions transparent, agile and scalable.
Written by two of the field’s foremost experts, this book addresses why, when and how to model decisions using the Decision Model and Notation (DMN), a new open standard for representing business decisions.

About the Author
This book is not just a description of the standard and the notation, but a distillation of many hard-earned lessons from real projects. Jan and I bring different perspectives having worked on different kind of projects. As we brought this experience together it became clear that we shared a common approach and agreed on a wide ranging set of best practices. This book is the result.
James Taylor
Palo Alto, California
All elegant and empowering innovations--for example, the wheel, the jet-engine, the printing press and the internet--have one thing in common: after they are adopted, it becomes hard to imagine what the world would be like without them. We make no lesser claim for Decision Management and Decision Modeling. Once organizations routinely and consciously capture, manage, improve and are able to justify their key decisions, they will wonder how automated systems ever evolved without this facility. Furthermore, as laws such as the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and industry compliance legislation insist with increasing force that all automated systems must be capable of comprehensively explaining their behavior after the fact, there will be an ever increasing legal requirement for a more rigorous approach to automated decision-making. The increasing use of machine learning in automation will also increase the need for regimented governance of decisions and the ability to explain counterintuitive decision out-comes--both use cases for decision modeling.
Like James, I have seen Decision Modeling transform the way organizations run their businesses and give their subject matter experts a truly effective means of communicating their ideas. Our goal for this book has been to present the case for decision modeling and bring the benefits of this simple idea to new organizations.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to DeckleEdge LLC, Albuquerque, New Mexico, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
