Research as early as the 90s identified rigid, active process enactment as detrimental to engineers’ flexibility. While software engineering processes thus are rarely ‘executable’, engineers would benefit from guidance in safety critical domains where standards, regulations, and processes are often complicated. In this paper, we present the Passive Process Engine Environment (\ppex) that tracks process progress in the background and automatically evaluates quality assurance constraints even in the presence of process deviations. Our approach is engineering artifact agnostic and comes with two exemplary tool connectors to Jira and Jama.
