Dimensions of Business Process Reengineering (BPR) (PowerPoint PPT)

DESCRIPTION

In all too many organizations, Business Process Reengineering (BPR) has been not only a great success, but – ironically – also a great failure. After months, even years, of careful process redesign, these companies achieve dramatic improvements in individual processes only to watch overall results decline.

Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is a management strategy originally pioneered in the early 1990s, which focuses on the analysis and design of workflows and business processes within an organization. BPR is a practice of rethinking and redesigning the way work is done to better support an organization's mission and reduce costs.

BPR aims to help organizations fundamentally rethink how they do their work in order to improve customer service, cut operational costs, and become world-class competitors. BPR also seeks to help organizations radically restructure their organizations by focusing on the ground-up design of their business processes.

The promise of process reengineering is not empty. It can actually deliver revolutionary process improvements. Major reengineering process efforts are being conducted around the world. Yet, companies cannot translate these results to the bottom line.

This framework discusses the 2 dimensions of Business Process Engineering, which are critical in translating these short-term narrow-focus process improvements into long term profits. Organizations just need to have a good grasp of these dimensions of BPR to effectively manage business process improvements.

This presentation will provide you an in-depth understanding of BPR and the 2 dimensions of BPR:

1. Breadth (of Process Redesigned)
2. Depth (of Business Change)

Breadth and Depth are critical in translating short-term, narrow focus process improvements into long-term profits.

The first dimension of BPR, Bread (of Process Redesign), captures the range of activity types within a business process. The business process to be redesigned must be broadly defined in terms of cost or customer value to improve performance across the entire business unit.

The second dimension of BPR, Depth (of Business Change), captures how many and how much of the depth levers change as a result of process reengineering. Redesign must penetrate to the organization's core, fundamentally changing 6 crucial organizational elements.

These 2 dimensions of Business Process Reengineering are discussed in further deck within the presentation framework.

This deck also includes slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.

This PPT includes a detailed analysis of 20 organizations to uncover why reengineering efforts often fail to impact the bottom line. It also provides actionable insights into leveraging the breadth and depth dimensions for sustainable business transformation.
