What is a Process?
Processes take INPUTS, do WORK to them, and produce OUTPUTS for CUSTOMERS
They exist to achieve performance OUTCOMES and meet the requirements of STAKEHOLDERS

Two typical starting points…
We need to get our processes “in order”
We need to be able to demonstrate a consistent, professional approach to managing the organisation
Process Management
We need to fix some problems
We need to make a step-change in performance in a few key areas

Example Process Owner Role
Process Owners have end-to-end responsibility for high-level processes.
Process owners will “champion” the improvement of the process. Process Owners are members of the Process Control Board. Process Owners are practically responsible for the high-level
process to which they are assigned (see above). For key, activity and task level processes Process Owners may
appoint Process Managers (sub-process owners). Process Owners are theoretically responsible for changes in any
process including and below the high-level process which they own. Process Owners can rely on the Process Manager’s judgement as
they see fit if an appointed Process Manager identifies a change in a process as simple and low impact.

activity and task level processes which they are appointed to manage.
Process Managers must report back all changes to processes to the Process Owner.
Process Managers must highlight all changes that could affect other processes.
Process Managers must highlight all changes that cannot be resolved within the process.
Process Managers must highlight all changes that have a medium/high impact on the process.

Customers and Requirements Customer: anyone who requires the output(s) of
your process Requirements: those things that are needed by
the customer in order for them to be satisfied Expectations: customers often have
expectations, either about the output or the performance of the process - they may not be expressed explicitly, but are worth knowing as they can significantly affect perceptions of your performance

Define Systems Standards
Your process might be adequately documented simply by drawing an up-to-date process map However, in many cases you will need more than a
map Systems Standards provide information on the
level of performance that must be achieved Standards may be quantified (in which case they are
no different to Targets), or they may be qualitative, such as "compliance with National Standard ABC"

Internal Measures Output Measures Satisfaction Measures
Processing time (work time in process steps)
Error Rate or Accuracy (Right First Time)
Perceptions of reliability, assurance, tangibles, empathy, responsiveness
Cycle-time (end-to-end, elapsed time)
Timeliness (delivery vs. deadline/requirement)
Delay or Waiting time (e.g. between steps)
Completeness Any “objective” measures gathered by customer(s) or stakeholder(s) Volume (input) Conformance to
Standard Cost (direct cost
per transaction) Success
Rate/Attrition Rate/Output Volume
Compliments

Establish Statistical Process Control SPC enables a judgement to be made about
whether or not a process is in statistical control, and therefore determine when to make an adjustment in the process
It is used to improve performance by reducing process variation
There are two types of variation: Common Cause Special Cause

Common and Special Cause VariationCommon Cause Stable, consistent
pattern of variation Repeatable and
predictable Numerous causes Always present “chance”
Special Cause Pattern changes over
time Unstable and
unpredictable “assignable”

Metrics, Process and Organisational Benchmarking Metrics Benchmarking compares your numbers with
somebody else’s It tells you “what” they achieve, but nothing about “how”
Process Benchmarking compares your processes with somebody else’s It tells you “how” they achieve it, but not why
Organisational Benchmarking compares your organisational approach (people, structures, skills, culture etc.) with somebody else’s It tells you “why” they achieve it, as well as “how”

4 Types of Benchmarking
Internal comparing within your Service, between sites and departments
Competitive direct comparisons with competitors offering the same services
as you Functional
comparing with other organisations in a similar field but who are not in competition
Generic comparing similar processes regardless of the nature of the
industry/sector

Control
• Agree the process/service scope of the Benchmarking Project• Define the “As Is” process and current performance• Identify potential comparator organisations
• Determine data collection methods• Plan data exchange and partner visits• Collect comparator data (desk research and/or visits)
• Analyse the performance of the comparators using the data• Assess the performance of the comparators using qualitative information• Determine the performance gaps in your process/service
• Identify and select possible practices to adapt or adopt• Develop plans to test and implement the selected practices• Gain acceptance and implement the improvements
• Assess the performance of the new process/service• Ensure the required performance can be sustained• Review the project and apply learning for the future
