Originator not stated.

How to read it

  • Focus on the core processes that drive value for the customer.
  • Look for opportunities to eliminate unnecessary steps and automate where possible.

What this does

Redesigns business processes to achieve significant improvements in critical measures of performance such as cost, quality, service, and speed.

When to use it

Use it when existing processes are inefficient and need a complete overhaul to meet current business needs.

Not when: Do not use it when minor improvements can be made without a complete redesign or when the organization lacks the capability for significant change.

What happens next

Conduct a detailed analysis of the redesigned processes and their impacts.
