Thereby, the complexity and management tasks inherent in the alignment of business, process and IT aspects need to be adequately addressed. In this track we solicit innovative contributions targeting the aspects of modelling the digital enterprise as well as managing its business processes. In terms of enterprise modelling (EM), it is sought after the conceptualization, implementation, and use of machine-processable languages to facilitate the interaction with complex business and technological scenarios, engage in knowledge management and support organizational engineering. In addition, the development of reference models for selected domains, the design of models for enterprise architecture management, and the development of modelling tools are investigated. Since business processes are at the core of the social-technical transformation that has been fuelled by the digital economy, business process management (BPM) can be seen from an exploitative and an explorative perspective. 1) Process exploitation aims at more efficient processes, implemented via incremental changes that rely on tools, management approaches, and techniques within well-defined process boundaries. Such a view, however, neglects the exploration potential of BPM. 2) Exploration-oriented BPM operates under the paradigm of innovation and agility of processes, services, products and business models, applying techniques of creative, abductive thinking, design, and communication. _Types of Contributions_ The proposed track aims to attract the full spectrum of submissions: * Completed research papers either on enterprise modelling or business process management. Both managerial and technology-oriented papers are welcome. * Stimulating research-in-progress papers that explore emerging areas of related research and that would benefit from a focused conversation at ECIS 2019. * Prototypes and technology demonstrations in enterprise modelling or business process management that provide proofs-of-concept as well as interesting insights into the latest and future developments of information systems in digital enterprises. _Associate Editors_ Xavier Boucher, Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines de St. Etienne, France Robert Buchmann, Babes-Bolyai University, Romania Peter Fettke, Saarland University & DFKI, Germany Dimitris Karagiannis, University of Vienna, Austria Monika Malinova Mandelburger, Vienna University of Economics and Business, Austria Oscar Pastor, Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, Spain Geert Poels, Ghent University, Belgium Hajo Reijers, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the Netherlands Maximilian Roeglinger, University of Bayreuth, Germany Irina Rychkova, Université de Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, France Kurt Sandkuhl, University of Rostock, Germany Flavia Santoro, Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Theresa Schmiedel, University of Liechtenstein, Liechtenstein Monique Snoeck, K.U.
