Steps to Business Process Reengineering

Redesign and re engineering are different. All necessary technological innovations should be known so that all technological constraints and opportunities are considered. Because process re-engineering is much more difficult than mere automating or upgrading existing processes, creativity and vision are needed to design a prototype of the revised process.

Steps  to Business Process Re-engineering

1. Define the objectives of the BPR project.

2. Identify the processes that are to be re-engineered.

3. Determine a baseline for measuring the success of the BPR project.

4. Identify the technology levers. These are the potential sources of innovation, increased quality, increased output, and decreased costs.

5. Develop initial prototypes of the re-engineered processes and then, through subsequent iterations, develop incremental improvements to the prototypes until satisfactory results are achieved.
