Performance Levels of 3 major process:

1. Customer Orders – Took too long to procure, record and transmit for execution

2. Customer Service – Was error-prone, time consuming and suffered from stock-out problems.

3. Customer Feedback – Was not regular, and even when it did take place was done only on sampling basis.

Page 3: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

Changes to be made…Instead of having three points of contact with the

customer, namely Sales Executive, the Service and Installation Technician and the Market Researcher, there will be only a Customer Executive who will perform all the functions.

Instead of an expensive and time consuming hierarchy involving branch offices, regional offices and then several layers at the Corporate Office, there will only be Office-Cum-Depots having direct communication with the Marketing Manager at the Corporate Office.

All Customer Executives are being provided with handheld computers which can be used for booking orders, for providing help during installation and service and for recording customer responses and feedback.

This is no longer a

choice, it is an imperative for

survival

Page 5: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

Principles of BPR Organize around Outcomes, not the task. Identify all Processes and Prioritize them in

order of redesign. Integrate information processing work into

real work that produces the information. Treat geographically dispersed resources Link Parallel activities to integrate the

results. Put the decision point where the work is

performed, and build the control into the process.

Capture information once and at the source .

Step – 1: Developing Process Vision and Determining Process Objectives

Page 8: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

Step – 1: Developing Process Vision and Determining Process Objectives

The organization should focus on the future competition, products and customer expectations, and the plan model to succeed in the environment.

This first step recognizes following: Market/Customer driven Business Vision and Goals Achievement of business vision may involve

reengineering of more than one process Process attributes (cost, quality, time etc.) and process

measures (half the cost, in a day etc) need to be derived.

At the end of this step, we would be clear on1. What are the key process? (Identification)2. How will they reengineered process perform

qualitatively and quantitatively? (Vision & Objectives)

Page 9: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

2: Defining the Process to be Reengineered

Page 10: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

2: Defining the Process to be Reengineered

Develop and establish a common understanding of each process across all executives, clerks and workers involved in the execution of the respective processes.

Ask probing questions in order to obtain clarity on what we mean by an order fulfillment process.

Control and ensure the process outcomeAmber alert (x days) to division head for unfilled

ordersRed alert (y days) to CEO for unfilled ordersSpare lie in stock for more than z months, red alert to CEO

Order Fulfillment Process

Distribution

Logistics

Page 12: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

Step 2: Contd…Performance metrics are measured..

Planning – lead time committed for orders, percentage of delayed deliveries

Production – yields and efficiency, capacity utilization

Shipment – Cost of shipmentIf no value to customer – No reengineering

This step helps to create an early vision of the reengineered process for the departments covered by the process.

Page 13: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

3: Understanding and Measuring Existing Processes

Page 14: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

3: Understanding and Measuring Existing ProcessesGo through a presentation of how the existing

system works, and find, whenever possible, the current process measures available.

Otherwise, poor performance levels of the existing process may inhibit us.Example: 50% of the orders were termed complex or

special. It took 12 to 18 weeks to be shipped.This step forces the enterprise to obtain a common

understanding of terms like,Waiting time, Response time, etc.,

If it is first time, the result of performance measures on the existing system may lead to dissatisfaction.

Page 16: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

4: Identifying IT LeversEvery effort in reengineering is also an initiative in

process improvement.Reengineering can be differentiated on the basis of

two factors:1. Reengineering should lead to a dramatic

improvement in process performance on the selected measures.

2. Reengineering should end up achieving process destruction through effective or innovative deployment of IT.

Need to visualize scenarios where IT could be wisely deployed to drastically simplify the process. Example: Using bar-code scanners

5: Designing & Building Prototype

In any reengineering activity “Ideas are Acts”.When the core group of the organization spends

valuable time and invaluable thoughts on visualizing the reengineered processes, simultaneously, owners who would construct the reengineered processes are created. This is action.

This final stage of implementation is unique to each organization and project because it involves issues that are multi-dimensional in nature -Issues relating to managing technologyChanging people’s attitudes and mindsetsCreating new organization structures and Managing the entire change process

Page 19: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

Contd…It would be difficult for people who were

managing the earlier system to adapt themselves to a new “revolutionary way of doing things”.

Prototype prove to be very valuable in working on mindsets as they provide a “learning environment” for people to adapt to the new system.

Prototypes always need tuning, more tuning, and still more tuning and that makes the job of implementation considerably easy and smooth.

BPR Drivers ICT Developments (info, commu, tech) Broken Processes. Local, Global & Faster Competition Rising overhead costs. Shorter product life cycles Stagnant business conditions Unsatisfied Customers.

Why Organizations Don’t Reengineer?

Complacency( Satisfaction)

Political Resistance

New Developments

Fear of Unknown and Failure

Page 23: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

Eight Decision Points in any BPR Project

1. Do we need to reengineer this business operation?

2. What is the end vision of the results of our reengineering?

3. What is the detailed design for our reengineered business operation?

4. Will our new design for the business operation is suitable?

5. What is the plan for getting that design implemented?

6. Should we fund the implementation of the business reengineering design?

7. Is the implementation going as planned?

8. Is the reengineered business operation ready to take on responsibility for continuous improvement to the process?

Continuous Process Improvement Model

This method for improving business processes is effective to obtain gradual, incremental improvement

Page 25: Five Step Methodology To Implement Bpr

Break through Reengineering Model

•Defining the scope and objectives of your reengineering project,

•Learning process (with your customers, your employees, your competitors and non-competitors, and with new technology).

•Create a vision for the future and design new business processes. ("to be" state)

•Create a plan of action based on the gap between your current processes, technologies and structures.

•Implementing your solution.
