Business process management tasks are riddled with execution challenges. Through the requirements phase, the business process (functions) users may have different goals from a computerized process. In most of the scenarios, the operation’s users tend to be influenced by the legacy systems while explaining the procedure requirements. After the IT team builds up the automated process application getting rid of inefficiencies, differences appear.
This problem is compounded if the process “playback” strategy is not adopted while developing the application. The tug of war between the IT and operations leads to delays in implementing the process application, delaying the ROI and increasing the task costs hence. A lack of executive sponsorship for championing the procedure improvement cause among the business users is also one of the principle reasons that delaying the adoption of the new application. An activity performance standard established before an IT initiative is carried out would solve each one of these nagging problems. How exactly to set process benchmarks? The first step is to attain process maturity within the business. This does not need to wait around till a BPM initiative(s) is discovered.
A comprehensive process inventory capturing the existing procedures within a business provides a good view to plan the process benchmarking. If a large Bang approach to process inventory is extremely hard, the procedure evaluation can be limited by a business unit or function. It could be started with value capacity or map or business graph.

A mixture of top down and bottom up approach to create process consciousness should be adopted. Business users should be enlisted to help identify the critical process. What exactly are the processes that currently exist in these areas? Are these processes assisting to achieve the objective? What is the required condition for the procedures to attain the objectives? How do you measure if procedures are assisting the objectives are achieved by you? Which business units get excited about the business process?
What are the key areas influenced by the business process? Maybe the goal to reduce time or achieve agility or improve visibility? What ought to be the end to end routine time of the business process? Does the existing SLAs to apply to the new objectives? How do my SLA’s compare against my competitors (when possible to compare)? Do the current procedures create enough and relevant data for me personally to measure my business performance?
What must I do to make digital data? What is the best usage of my full-time employees (FTE’s) within these systems? Are the procedures too many people dependent? What will happen to my procedures if my employees quit? What type of employee skill sets do I want in the next few years? Do these procedures support working with such skill units?
For revenue impacting processes, how do these processes measure up against the revenue focuses on for the next one fourth/month/year? For customer impacting process, what do the customer satisfaction ratings say? What are the desired rankings? What exactly are my cost benefits targets for next quarter/month/year? These are a few of the ideas for setting up process benchmarks. When these benchmarks proactively are created, it keeps the measures independent of any BPM/Automation initiatives and a target measure for ROI on the BPM/Automation initiatives.
