Read Presentation Deep Dive

This document provides a thorough visual taxonomy of key business processes related to thedelivering services based on APQC's cross-industry process classification system (PCF), the most used process framework globally.

A process classification framework can be utilized in many practical ways. For example, it can provide a:

1. framework and checklist of processes when scoping process-related projects
2. starting point for a process documentation, offering a detailed list of processes to use in process flows, maps, and/or models
3. basis for structuring a process repository, whether using a sophisticated software or simple folders
4. foundation for undertaking process-related benchmarking and generating business analytics

This document follows the structure, and facilitates the usage, of APQC's PCF v7.3.1. It includes 3 process groups, 8 processes, and 53 process activities related to delivering services.

Topic FAQ

What is the APQC Process Classification Framework and how does it apply to service delivery?

The APQC PCF is an open standard for organizing and benchmarking processes across industries. For service delivery, it provides a hierarchical taxonomy that helps classify activities from high-level categories to specific tasks, enabling consistent documentation and benchmarking; the presentation follows PCF v7.3.1.

What are the levels in a process classification framework for service delivery?

A process classification framework typically organizes processes into multiple hierarchical levels to move from broad categories to specific tasks. The document follows the PCF structure that categorizes processes into 5 levels, facilitating consistent scoping, documentation, and benchmarking across service delivery activities.

How can a process taxonomy help scope a process improvement project?

A taxonomy serves as a checklist to identify relevant processes and activities to include in an improvement scope, reducing omissions and clarifying ownership. Flevy's Key Business Processes | Service Delivery provides a high-level and detailed taxonomy plus a process documentation checklist to support initial scoping and mapping of 53 activities.

What should be included in a service delivery governance framework?

Governance should align processes to organizational objectives, define roles and responsibilities, set performance metrics, and include customer feedback loops and resource management controls. The presentation supplies a service delivery governance framework template to structure those elements and link them to performance measurement.

How do organizations benchmark service delivery performance using a framework?

Organizations map their processes to a standard taxonomy, collect process and outcome metrics, and compare those metrics to industry benchmarks to identify gaps. The APQC PCF provides the taxonomy foundation; the Flevy presentation includes a performance benchmarking model to facilitate that comparison.

What templates support resource management for service delivery teams?

Effective resource management uses forecasting, capacity planning, and skills assessment tools to align supply with demand. The document lists a resource management plan template and recommends including forecasting, capacity planning, and skills assessment as part of the plan.

How should I design training materials for service delivery teams using a process taxonomy?

Use the taxonomy to extract the specific activities and process flows that frontline staff must execute, convert those into role-specific procedures and training modules, and integrate customer feedback mechanisms. The deck provides a process documentation checklist and suggests a 60-minute resource management workshop as part of training preparation.

What value do paid process templates offer compared with building from scratch?

Paid templates provide a pre-structured taxonomy, governance layouts, checklists, and models that reduce design time and ensure alignment with common standards. This presentation includes 5 named deliverables—governance framework, resource plan, documentation checklist, feedback tool, and benchmarking model—which can accelerate setup.
