Communications in organizations have been one ofthe most important issues. To run the business processes, thecompany needs communication between units and customers.We provide a framework which can be used by networkdesigners in an organization. The outcome of the frameworkis value for three QoS parameters: delay, loss and availability.The organizations business processes are used as a basis forthe framework. We used UML as the tool to model thebusiness processes in the organization. First, the process ismodeled with UML activity, sequence and class diagrams.Then, a three-step analysis has been conducted on the modelsto find the specifications of the business process. The analysiscovers the data, actors and time domains in the businessprocess. The framework assumes that the business processesare static and no change happens during the work ofinformation systems.
