This PPT slide, part of the 25-slide Business Process Reengineering (BPR): Implementation Guidelines PowerPoint presentation, presents a framework for understanding Business Process Reengineering (BPR) through 2 key dimensions: Breadth and Depth. These dimensions are essential for translating short-term process improvements into sustainable long-term outcomes.
Breadth refers to the range of activity types within a process that are subject to redesign. It emphasizes the importance of defining the process broadly, focusing on aspects like cost and customer value. This broad definition is crucial for enhancing overall performance across the business unit.
Depth, on the other hand, delves into the extent of change within the organization. It addresses how many and how significantly the depth levers—elements that can be altered during reengineering—are modified. The slide suggests that effective redesign must penetrate deeply into the organizational core, fundamentally altering 6 crucial elements. This indicates that surface-level changes are insufficient for achieving meaningful results.
The concluding statement underscores that only projects that are both broad and deep can yield significant, lasting impacts on the bottom line. This insight is particularly valuable for executives considering BPR initiatives, as it highlights the necessity of a comprehensive approach to process redesign. The interplay between breadth and depth is critical; a narrow focus may lead to quick wins, but fail to deliver enduring improvements.
Understanding these dimensions equips leaders with the knowledge to make informed decisions about their reengineering efforts, ensuring that initiatives are not only impactful in the short term, but also contribute to long-term organizational success.
