Business Process Improvement Consulting
Business process improvement and business process management: what can these strategies really achieve? For many firms, the rewards are significant: increased market competitiveness, better customer service, higher productivity and stronger return on investment.
What is Business Process Improvement and Management?
Business process improvement (BPI) and business process management (BPM) focus on continually optimizing business processes through analysis, modeling and monitoring. BPM is the systematic approach to solving business problems that helps your company achieve higher financial goals.
Essentially, organizations are formed by people who work in processes with control mechanisms, all of which form the overall organizational structure. When business problems arise, traditional management often mistakenly assumes that people are the cause of the problem. This triggers a “blame dynamic”… a vicious cycle of fault-finding that frustrates and discourages people, but rarely solves the core problem.
The truth?
Only 15% of the root causes of organizational problems are related to people:
85% are related to control mechanisms, structure and processes.
