Process re-engineering
Business Process Reengineering (or BPR) is the fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of business processes to achieve dramatic improvements in critical, contemporary measures of performance such as cost, quality, service and speed.
BRP isn’t for businesses looking for marginal improvement. The fundamental nature of this activity looks to a much greater order of magnitude, perhaps many fold increases. A BRP project will “have the drains up” and look deep into what the organisation is trying to achieve by it’s processes.
Often businesses are constrained by legacy processes that have been around for years, but looking now at today’s market, are cumbersome, costly and slow. You will need to ask fundamental questions including “why do we do that?” – not “why do we do it like that?”
You may think that BRP is the reserve of large corporations and it’s true that bigger businesses employ BRP more than small ones – but with a common sense approach significant benefits are capable of being derived by any business.
