Process Management
proDacapo Process Management
shows
your business graphically, using process maps to illustrate activity
workflow across organisational boundaries. Users can navigate, from the
strategic level of core processes, down to the operational level of
departmental activity.
This makes it easy for people to visualize
how they contribute to overall outputs and outcomes. It enables them to
see beyond departmental or sectional boundaries and build a more process oriented
and customer-focused organisation.
Process Management can be used to support all types of improvement
initiatives; from Business Processes Re-engineering (BPR) projects, to Continuous
Improvement programs, or to manage your quality accreditation
(ISO9000). Drill-down into the detail with the click of a mouse, and
follow hot-links to process documentation, other systems and the web,
for an easy workflow solution.
The system highlights
improvement opportunities, illustrating non-value adding activities and
problems. Drill down on problems, to understand their cause and effects,
including financial impacts. This allows managers to show how upstream
departments can affect the performance of downstream departments.
Typically, users identify improvement potential of 15 to 30% of total
time and cost expended by their organisations. With this solution at
your fingertips, you can prioritise initiatives to target the most
promising improvement areas. This is why the payback time on your
investment in proDacapo can be extremely short.

Analyse and manage process and activity
costs -
Having insight into and being able to manage actual costs is vital
