Business Process Improvement

As the recession deepens and managers at all levels are facing hard decisions about where to apply cuts in expenditure, South East Training is keen to help its customers make the right decisions for their businesses. Expenditure cuts applied in the wrong place can damage an organisation's capability to continue meeting its customers' expectations. A failure to provide the service that your customers have come to expect leads to poorer business results and possible long term decline. The goal, therefore, is to find a way to rationalise your business while continuing to provide excellent customer service, leading to future growth. The answer lies in improved Business Process Management.

Business Process Modelling

Before you can set out improving your business processes, you have to know how they are operating at the moment. Business Process Modelling allows you to illustrate how operations, processes and work activities within a business are sequenced to transform inputs into outputs that meet internal or external customer needs. By showing the interaction between operations, processes and tasks, they provide not only a detailed view of how an organisation works, but also provide the foundations for improving the economy, efficiency and effectiveness of business operations.

The business process diagram is fundamental to any improvement activity.

Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN)

At South East Training we advocate the use of Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN) for illustrating your processes.

Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN) is a standard for process modelling that provides a graphical notation for illustrating business processes in a Business Process Diagram based on a flowcharting technique. The objective of BPMN is to support business process management for both business users and IT specialists by providing a notation that is intuitive to business users yet able to represent complex process semantics.

The Business Process Modelling Toolkit

This site is aimed at providing business analysts and others involved in process management and improvement activities with sufficient understanding of the notation and the associated rules to allow them to produce Business Process Diagrams that conform to a widely recognised standard. The benefit to your organisation will be the in-house capability to create Business Process maps that can be shared and readily understood by all stakeholders, both within and external to the organisation.

What We Offer

South East Training offers both consultancy and training support to organisations wanting to invest in Business Process Modelling. We have helped numerous organisations, both in the public and privates sectors, to analyse and improve their business processes using these modelling techniques.
