In an organisation several Business Process Management System (BPMS) products can co-exist and work alongside each other. Each one of these BPM tools has its own definition process instances, creating a heterogeneous environment. This reduces interoperability between business management systems increases the effort involved in analysing data. this paper, we propose common model for named Instance Model (BPIM), which provides holistic view instances generated from multiple systems. BPIM consists visual notations their metadata schema. It captures three dimensions instances: execution paths, instance data provenance meta-data. aims to provide abstract layer repository engines, leading understanding instances.
