Make the following changes to the $$As$-$Is$$ BPMN diagram. You will need to re$-$draw the BPMN diagram, incorporating these changes:

Rather than the Project Manager $($PM$)$ reviewing all projects with the COO, assume that just the project manager reviews the consulting engagement proposals. At the same time $($in parallel$),$ the Resource Manager identifies the resources needs for the project.

If there is an exceptional situation in the Resource Manager's review, then the COO reviews the situation and decides whether to continue or decline the project.

The Project Manager $($PM$)$ does not escalate the issue to the COO if there are not sufficient resources. Either the project request is scheduled or cancelled depending upon business rules that have been specified.

The COO reviews all exceptions and the application of business rules at the end of the processing of each request. This allows the business executive to modify the exception handling process and the business rules used by the project manager. Treat this as one sub$-$process. It is not necessary to decompose this.
