BUSINESS PROCESSES HIERARCHY
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
No matter how complex the total processes of an enterprise, they may be described in simple terms as a single set of processes. |
|
| |
For example, a sales company begins with defining its products, determining its sales and marketing strategy/price, making the offer, managing the sale and reviewing the sales results/product development. |
|
| |
This is called the Business Process Hierarchy.
|
|
| |
The purpose of the business process hierarchy |
|
| |
The prime purpose of the business processes hierarchy is to determine that all core processes are in fact primary to the function of the business. |
|
| |
For example, over time an enterprise may adopt certain business practices to compensate for a deficincy, for example the writing of software. Over time however, the company may find it has a large investment in software development when in fact its business in no way is core to software or software related knowledge development. |
|
| |
Without a clear map of the higher processes of the company, such understandings are impossible to identify. |
