To achieve this purpose, the concept of business process template is defined as the full description of a BPMN business process that is enriched with annotations concerning its variability points. The Process Factory allows the creation of business processes templates using BPMN. Then, the templates are reified customizing each variability point, e.g., gateway decisions, pools, etc., accordingly with the reality of each application domain. To smooth the usability, the Process Factory uses a rich UX where the final product is delivered as a BPMN process that can be deployed in any BPMN compliant engine. The achieved results show that deploying ready-to-use business processes patterns using a rich UX aids the non-BPMN experienced users to model their business process, while at the sametime saves their time, resources and minimizes errors.  \nKeywords  \nAtlas tool, BPMN, Business process, Fast setup, Process Factory, Ready-to-use, Template  \n1. Introduction  \nReady-to-use business processes templates for a fast setup is located in a broader project, namedeProcess, which is currently under development. The ready-to-use is already deployed and being used in consultancy services. The project’s motivation is inspired by the fact that recent progresses and the apparent ease with which the numerous process automation solutions allow the specification and automation of processes, there are still significant obstacles and limitations both in the standards that allow the specification of processes, e.g., the notation Business Process Model and Notation-BPMN1 , as well as in the subsequent automation of the same processes, in  \nER2023: Companion Proceedings of the 42nd International Conference on Conceptual Modeling: ER Forum, 7th SCME, Project Exhibitions, Posters and Demos, and Doctoral Consortium, November 06-09, 2023, Lisbon, Portugal  \n*Corresponding author  \n$ [miguel.agostinho@linkconsulting.com](miguel.agostinho@linkconsulting.com) (M.
