Business Process Analysis — also known as BPA — includes the design and documentation of process information with the purpose of monitoring and analyzing processes and their performance, and to communicate and optimize processes throughout the organization.
BPA helps organizations achieve operational excellence, increase competitiveness by improving the overall business performance, manage the enterprise with full visibility, and align the organization from end-to-end.
Easily create models that are efficient, accurate, and adaptable to changing conditions, using a flexible approach that allows for quick changes in response to new information or changing circumstances.
Reuse models and objects from the repository, add images, additional documents and graphics, work with table-based modeling or use an AI-based translation of your process knowledge – there are endless features that help you get fast results.
Get everyone on the same team by optimizing transparency and communication. Benefit from innovative ways to publish process content and enable everyone in your company to understand and improve processes without deep process knowledge.
Unlock the power of collaborative process improvement by empowering anyone, anytime, anywhere to collaborate. Allow dedicated teams or restricted target groups to collaborate and comment during the design and after the publication of process models to contribute their content.
Generate simple views of business content by using different highlighting options that present information in a clear and concise manner. You can also restrict access to content based on the role or position of the user.
Use content filters to reduce complexity and increase the focus on relevant content. This helps to ensure that users only have access to the information that is necessary for them to perform their job duties, while also helping to prevent unauthorized access and protect sensitive information.
Ensure that changes from a transformation are read and understood by the entire organization. Roll out operating procedures and policies organization-wide in a shared, single source of truth based on automated process governance.
End-users are asked to confirm changes while management views allow you to track the status of ongoing confirmation activities.
Establish a centralized repository where all relevant process information and documents are stored, updated, and maintained according to established standards and guidelines with controls to ensure that only authorized users can access the single source of truth.
Users can search and reuse existing documents and process models, manage and navigate content structures, create model or document versions, and maintain a version history.
Accurate, up-to-date, and reliable data will help to improve decision-making, increase efficiency, and reduce errors and inconsistencies.
As standards evolve over time, it is necessary to adapt the changes in both your master process and in your process variants.
Use variant management to roll out process changes to all employees and to ensure that everybody is on the same page. Changes in a master process can easily be rolled out as process variants and adapted in different entities or regions.
Establish enterprise-wide policies and workflows for Business Process Management by automated process governance. Use a model-driven approach to roll in requirements and roll out solutions. Increase process quality, flexibility, and traceability by defining policies, roles, and responsibilities.
If, for example, a change request for a model is submitted, the request is sent via e-mail to the person responsible who can then assess if the change should be made.
Interactive dashboards are a powerful tool for exploring and analyzing complex data sets, and help users to make data-driven decisions by providing insights in real-time. Start with out-of-the-box dashboards or use them as templates for adaptation to create dashboards that can be context-sensitive for certain business units and their processes.
