Identifying the processes
The first step in identifying processes is to identify the relevant business processes that are in place. These processes could range from operations and finance, human resources, or product development, depending on the organization.


Mapping the processes
Once the processes have been identified, the next step is to map out the existing processes in order to understand how work is currently being performed and where improvements can be made. This is done through a comprehensive analysis of the current workflow and the various steps that are involved in each process.
Identify Bottlenecks
Once the processes have been mapped out, the next step is to identify any bottlenecks or inefficiencies that are causing delays. These could include things like lengthy approval processes, outdated technology, or unclear communication channels.


Evaluate Impact
After identifying bottlenecks, it’s important to evaluate the impact that they have on the overall workflow and on the organization as a whole. This helps determine which processes need to be addressed first.
Monitoring & Measuring Performance
Finally, once the areas that require improvement have been identified, a plan can be developed to optimize the process, using tools like process mapping or automation. This includes creating new workflows, eliminating steps, and updating technologies in order to streamline processes and improve overall efficiency.
