Business Process Re-Engineering

Ever since the term Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) was referenced in an article by Michael Hammer in the Harvard Business Review, enterprises have embraced the concept to ensure their operations are both effective and efficient.

The issue that inspired Michael Hammer to write this article was that he saw too many organizations investing heavily in adopting new technologies to automate their existing processes which were inherently ineffective and inefficient.

Business models are used to define either the current state of a process, where the outcome is called the “as is” model, or to design a concept of how a process should work, thereby producing a “to be” model. By evaluating the difference between the current and future business state, business process analysts can determine if the existing business processes and their associated systems, policies, and procedures are coherent, or if a complete revamp is required.

This ‘Gap Analysis’ should include a comprehensive study about how your business goals can be achieved by overcoming any existing flaws in your processes. Subsequently, business process analysis, re-engineering, and modelling can be used to redefine the way an organization carries out its core and supporting functions.

What are the benefits of Business Process Re-engineering (BPR)?

The Role of BPR in Technology Implementation

BPR is a crucial consideration when you’re getting ready for enterprise software or looking to implement any new technology. No technology can create real value unless your processes and systems work smoothly. BPR helps you to understand the current situation and what is required to move forward.

Just like the legs of a chair, if your processes are shaky and there are gaps, you will fall. We do a thorough review to identify what’s needed. If there are major gaps we will develop a comprehensive plan to resolve them. That’s not to say everyone needs a major revamp. If your processes are generally sound, then we may only need to recommend minor optimizations.
