Assignment: Business Process Management
Throughout this course, many discussion opportunities come up where you need to respond to other people's opinions and comments. After you have completed your reading, respond to your Discussion topic in the Discussion Board. Then read the responses of your fellow students and comment on their postings.
Business Process Examples
This Discussion should help prepare you for the Assignment, in which you will select the process that you may be using for subsequent Assignments. As part of your preparation, also read the Assignment instructions.
Take extra time this week to read what kinds of processes are being described by your classmates. Use the Discussion to focus on a good selection for your Assignment.
For this Discussion topic, do the following:
Describe two examples of a business process from your professional experience. For each process, follow this format and number your sections for each example as you clearly state the following:
1. The objective.
2. The scope (where the process begins and ends).
3. A brief description of those involved. (Is this a one-person process, or do multiple people get involved?)
4. How BPM would help in this process.
As you progress through the course, you will need to analyze elements such as the connection of this process to company strategy, metrics and goals of the process, stakeholders and team members involved, etc.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
