What is process optimization?
Optimizing processes is increasing the efficiency of an organization by changing and improving existing processes. Think of processes for time registration, administration, and stock management, but also, for example, online collaboration or project management.
The more efficient your processes are set up, the better the service and the operating result.
Portal as rock-solid foundation
A portal is a secure online environment behind a login, which your users can access anytime, anywhere. The great advantage of a portal is that it offers one central access to information. We can link almost any database or system to the portal by means of links and web services. With the help of single sign-on you only have to log in once and all applications and data become accessible.
With a portal:
- eliminate your manual and double entry
- digitize and automate your work processes
- bundle your information and communication flows
- simplify the working method with functional tools
- control different user roles from one environment
Quick and easy processing of 115k complex orders with dynamic flows.
Benefits of process optimization
Through process optimization, you constantly strive for the best result. It keeps you focused on activities that contribute little to the company or the output. By eliminating or reducing those, you achieve the ultimate workflow. This allows you to focus on activities that do add value to the customer. In short, you increase customer value.
Not only customer satisfaction, but employee satisfaction will increase as well. Waiting, unnecessary actions, and detours lead to frustration. By optimizing processes, you work with your team towards an easier, faster, and more efficient workflow. It leads to happier colleagues and better results.
Finally, constant optimizations keep the organization agile. It enables you to react quickly to new developments.
How do you optimize a process?
Analyze
Start with an inventory of the processes within and around the organization: chain processes, (high-level) business processes and work processes. That overview shapes your current situation and helps you think about the priority of each process. Identify the core processes, supporting and controlling processes. Then take a closer look at the individual processes. Does it add value for the customer, for the company or is it waste that should be eliminated?
Optimize
Determine why you are optimizing, formulate goals. Link KPIs to those goals and define standards, so that you can also demonstrate when the change is a success. Then provide a structural approach in which you work on small changes in short cycles with different improvement methods. Eliminate waste, automate processes, digitize workflows and link systems.
Evaluate
While optimizing, you are constantly collecting data. You track the KPIs and check at the end of each cycle whether the set standards where met. With the data you collect, you can discover new opportunities for improvement. In this way you constantly work with your team on the best result and the most flexible way to achieve that result.
