Nowadays, one of the companies challenges is to benefit from their Business Intelligence (BI) projects and not to see huge investments ruined. To address problems related to the modelling of these projects and the management of their life-cycle, Enterprise Architecture (EA) Frameworks are considered as an attractive alternative to strengthen the Business-IT alignment. Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) represents a pillar of these Frameworks to minimize the gap between the expectations of managers and delivered technical solutions. The importance of decision-making in business process has led the Object Management Group (OMG) to announce its new standard: Decision Model and Notation (DMN). In this paper, we propose the BPMN Decision Footprint (BPMNDF), which is a coupling of a BPMN with a novel DMN version. This enhancement has an additional component as a repository of all decisions along the process, used in order to ensure the harmony of decision-making.
