3.2 HERRAMIENTAS
3.1.1 Business Process Modeling Notation o BPMN 2.0
Dr. John Raffert, CEO
Dr. Raffert is a slightly overweight man in his late 50s. He has graying hair, a thick gray beard, wears glasses, and walks with a cane. He has a deep, rumbling voice and a very strong presence. It is easy to see why he is the spokesperson for Asklepios Corporation. Dr. Raffert is the winner of several prestigious medical awards. The medical community respects him. His intentions are pure – he truly wants to share this medical breakthrough with the world.

Dr. Allan Summers, Scientist
Dr. Summers is a wisp of a man – extremely gaunt, with a palsied left hand. He is in his mid 50s and has thinning hair and bad breath. Dr. Summers is the brains behind the current dendrimer patent project, code-named Panacea by the scientific team. He is very protective of his work. Dr. Summers refuses to leave Asklepios Corporation, even though he has received offers of extremely lucrative positions with competing companies. Takei Industries has offered him a sizeable bonus for completion of the project. He does not realize it is to ensure a cure is available for the Takei plague.

Dr. Alex Gildon, Scientist
Alex is a former scientist from Upjohn, LENS and other research facilities. He stole research files and pro- vided them to scientists working at Asklepios Corporation—one of the reasons Asklepios has made such quick progress on their latest dendrimer technolo- gy. He is a scientific mercenary of sorts, and can be bribed or coerced into helping the agents, if they can determine his background and leverage that informa- tion. Alex is in his mid 40s, and his tastes are quite expensive—he enjoys fine cigars and cognac, and he is always dressed in the latest styles.

Stan Matthewson, Security Officer
Stan is the no-nonsense head of security for Asklepios Corporation. He is a stocky man in his late 30s, sporting a broken nose and gnarled hands – signs of his former life as a professional rugby player. He constantly smokes cigarettes, and is never far from Dr. Raffert’s side. While he is suspi- cious by nature, he follows Dr. Raffert’s orders within reason. His primary concern is the safety of both Dr. Raffert and the briefcase – he will sacrifice his life to protect both.

James Kenichi, Japanese Businessman
James is a representative of Takei Industries, traveling with the Asklepios Corporation officials to ensure plans go well for his company. He wears an eye patch over his left eye. James is in his mid 30s, and is always impeccably dressed. He speaks flawless English, as well as Italian, French, and German. James is a shrewd businessman who is far more interested in how the proceedings will affect Takei Industries than how they impact Asklepios Corporation. He is unaware of Takei Industries true plot.

Ken Kimuro, Japanese Businessman
Ken is Mr. Kenichi’s personal assistant. He makes all travel and business arrangements for Mr. Kenichi. Secretly, he knows all about Takei’s plans, and has been inserted by the Yakuza to keep an eye
on Mr. Kenichi to make sure he doesn’t catch on to what is really going on – and to eliminate him if he ever does. Ken is a short, slender man with jet-black hair and eyes. He wears a business suit that hangs loosely from his small frame, but he moves with grace and poise.

Thomas Silvers, International Law Representative
Thomas Silvers is a solicitor working for Asklepios Corporation out of London. Thomas is the one who originally arranged for Asklepios Corporation to work with Davis, Davis & Goldstein. He attended Yale for a semester abroad, where he met Donald Davis, Jr. He is a middle-aged man, recently divorced, who is devoted to his work and little else. Thomas does not know any of the details about the project, only the legal requirements and obstacles to getting worldwide distribution.
Roland Armitage, Asklepios Corporation Investor
While not directly involved with the adventure or with any of the plots, the agents may come across information about Roland Armitage as a potential red herring. Roland is a wealthy Australian banker who has been subsidizing some of Asklepios Corporation’s medical research. In fact, after Takei Industries, Roland has provided the most funds to the project. He has a seven-year old granddaughter, Janice, who has Leukemia, and he hopes Asklepios Corporation can find a cure.

Davis, Davis & Goldstein
Donald Davis, Jr., Junior Partner
Donald “Donnie” Davis, Jr. is in his mid 30s. He looks and acts like a college-fraternity-boy-turned lawyer. Donnie is outgoing and gregarious, and he is always joking around. He is the lawyer currently handling Asklepios Corporation’s patent application process. Unknown to the other partners of the firm, Donnie has some knowledge about what is really going on; he was promised some serious cash incen- tives by Takei Industries to get the briefcase and samples from Asklepios Corporation. Donnie set up the meeting in the junkyard, which happened to belong to a construction company he had represent- ed several years ago that recently went out of busi- ness. He is a terrible gambler, and has accumulated nearly three million dollars in gambling debts over the last few years. He sees this payoff from Takei Industries as a way to clear his debts.

This man is all business. Donald Davis, Sr. is a sharp man in his late 50s with gray hair and a thick moustache. He is always well dressed and deals with people in a very straightforward and direct manner. He doesn’t appreciate his son’s humor or the way he takes things so lightly—but is impressed that Donnie, Jr. was able to secure the Asklepios Corporation as a client . . . a client will generate con- siderable revenues for Davis, Davis & Goldstein. Donald, Sr. is handling Asklepios Corporation’s U.S. licensing arrangements.

Richard Goldstein, Senior Partner
While Richard is a senior partner in the firm, his current workload does not include the Asklepios Corporation account. Richard is a thin man in his late 60s with thinning gray hair and a penchant for bow ties. Currently, Richard is more a figurehead and public voice for the firm than a practicing lawyer. His wife Elizabeth recently passed away from cancer, and he is pleased that his law firm may play some small role in curing cancer through their representation of the Asklepios Corporation.

This 30-something lawyer got his law degree from Stanford. Louis deals with international law and reg- ulations for companies looking to do business in the U.S. He has been with the firm for only a few months, after coming from a competitor in New Jersey.

Jacob Richardson, Junior Partner
Jacob works with licensing and merchandising. He is slightly overweight, in his 50s, and hides a drinking problem from his partners. Jacob missed a chance at Senior Partnership – perhaps stemming from a drunken run-in with Donald Davis, Sr. at a firm holiday party in 1996, where Jacob accused Donald, Sr. of nepotism.
Andrew Stone, Junior Partner
Andrew is a sharp-looking lawyer in his early 30s. He is a legal whiz who has quickly risen up the ranks. His expertise lies in marketing and advertis- ing accountability – Andrew looks over most client business proposals dealing with sweepstakes and contests.
