Business Process Modelling
Business process modelling - a model for success
All companies have two things in common. They have a certain function and they strive to be successful in performing that function. The more efficient their operations are, the easier it is to achieve success. Business process modelling is the activity of creating a representation of the various processes that happen within a company in order to fulfil its function. Generating a model like this gives an organisation the structure in which it would like to operate and allows it to compare its current processes to that which it wants it to be. Changes can then be made if necessary to improve current activities to bring them closer to what is desired to increase efficiency.
A business process refers to any structured set of activities associated with each other to serve a particular goal, usually producing a specific service or product for your customers. It can be the physical process through which you manufacture the product you sell, but the term also refers to the process a customer complaint is handled, for example, or the accounting process. All of these form part of what makes your business work to fulfil its function.
Because a business requires many different processes to work together to achieve a common goal, it is important that these activities are laid out and orchestrated in such a way that they support each other and facilitate efficiency. Creating a process model allows you to define the way in which the operations are carried out to accomplish your objectives. Depending on your intended use of the model, it can depict the flow of work or the integration between different processes. You can also compose this in multiple levels to include various processes and their interactions to get an accurate view of how your company should be operating.
