Business Process Mapping
A well documented process is the most effective method to ensure that efficient processes are used on a daily basis across the business.
The key to success is how the processes are documented and making them accessible to both process owners and team members who complete the activities.
There are multiple benefits from a comprehensive process library;
training records, job descriptions, continuous improvement, ease of auditing and more besides.
480Processes have prepared a generic set of 480 processes to provide an excellent starting point. 480Processes is named after that comprehensive set of processes!
As an illustration, a high level enterprise diagram maps out the framework for the lower level processes. This example places the Value-Add processes firmly in the central “swimlane” to emphasise the criticality of the processes that connect suppliers to customers. The upper “swimlane” is a place for corporate strategy and planning and the lower “swimlane” provides the essential non-value added processes. All organisations will have variations on this theme and this can be easily accomodated.
