Course Description
Business process analysis and modelling is an essential component of Business Process Redesign (BPR) as well as other business process improvement initiatives such as reengineering, systems development, quality management and continuous process improvement.
In this workshop the participants will acquire the knowledge and skills to analyse and accurately model business processes at the enterprise level as well as the detailed workflow level.
Participants will learn the Integration Definition for Process Modelling (IDEF0) method and the Business Process Diagram notation. These are open modelling standards that are used by a number of leading business process modelling tools. They are easy to understand and can be applied to all aspects of business process innovation. These methods facilitate rigorous analysis, creative thinking and the development of information technology systems.
Business process analysis and modelling are important because:
• The accurate description of business processes requires rigorous analysis
• Business process models provide a baseline from which to improve
• Analysis and modelling facilitates improvement through uncovering anomalies, redundancies and deficiencies
• Models provide the basis for studying and testing a process design and measuring process outcome
• Business process models transform ephemeral knowledge into a tangible business asset - reusable models that all can understand
• Models provide clear business process definitions for the effective operation of the business.
