How to Solve the Best Practices Puzzle
The APQC Process Classification Frameworksm
Raise the Process Standards: With hundreds of individual process maps stored in various programs, it’s difficult for your organization to see how everything fits together so as to apply a best practices framework that improves on the big picture.
How BPM Can Help: The right business process management software makes it easy to gain an overall understanding of your organization’s processes, so that improvements can be made that do not negatively impact any individual areas of business.
The Interfacing Technologies Advantage: Our Enterprise Process Centre™ (EPC) BPM software product has the APQC best practices framework built-in, offering the simplest, fastest, most effective way to align, review and improve your processes according to best practices.
What is the APQC Process Classification FrameworkSM(PCF)?
The PCF was developed by non-profit APQC, a global resource for benchmarking and best practices, and its member companies as an open standard to facilitate improvement through process management and benchmarking, regardless of industry, size, or geography. The PCF organizes operating and management processes into 12 enterprise level categories, including process groups and over 1,000 processes and associated activities. To download the full PCF or industry-specific versions of the PCF as well as associated measures and benchmarking, visit www.apqc.org/pcf.Implementing APQC's PCF within your own organization can help you to
- identify and implement best practices,
- discover effective methods of improvement,
- obtain measurable results.
Why implementation of best practices is tricky
Implementing a best practices frame work across your organization requires a taking top-down approach – something which isn’t always easy to do when every department has its own process maps stored in various programs (like Visio, Wordor Excel). Understanding the big picture can feel like trying to fit together a jigsaw puzzle.Institutionalizing a best practices framework ismade easier when your daily processes are managed through a single database. The right business process management (BPM) software is the key to successfully implementing APQC's PCF.
