 PROCESS MACRO
The PROCESS macro is essentially an unofficially modification to statistical
programs like SPSS that computes regression analyses containing various
combinations of mediators, moderators, and covariates.
Macro processes are set of processes and activities that are used to achieve a
company’s strategic objectives. They are made of processes that occur in
different sectors, involving different functions or positions. These processes can
occur in a chained or parallel way, but they have some degree of similarity.
To identify macro processes, an understanding of the company's environment
is required. Such as "What demands does my company meet?" What do we do,
and what steps do we take? Is it necessary to include more than one industry?
Is the work standardized, and is the quality delivered consistent? What are the
effects of each activity on the result?

MACRO PROCESS TYPES

Usually there are three types of process macro which are as
 Primary or business macro
Set of process which are related to the purpose of company’s existence
 Managerial macro process
set of processes that aim to monitor, measure, follow up, control, and
manage the present and the future of the organization. It relates to
management in the strategic, operational, or financial aspects.
 Support macro process
processes that are not directly related to the company’s core business,
which means they do not directly add value to the client. However, they
are important because they provide all the support so that the primary
processes can be carried out more easily and efficiently.
A melding of two ideas conceptually and analytically
 Process Analysis
used to calculate and analyze the direct and indirect pathways through
which an independent variable transmits its effect on a dependent
variable through an intermediary. Better known as “mediation analysis”
these days.
  Moderation Analysis
used to examine how the effect of an independent variable on an
dependent variable depends on a third moderator variable.

Benefits of Macro Process

macro processes provide a holistic view for the company’s management. A
macro process view provides different benefits such as
 Critical analysis and extended views
 Identification of problem, failures
 Reduction of rework
 Faster troubleshooting
 Greater integration within the company, if you understand how the
interaction and interconnection of processes and sectors takes place
 how work is done and relationship between supplier and customer
 Provides monitoring of the performance of all stages of the process sets.
Management by processes and the vision by macro processes, and
consequently their standardization, is a very common practice for companies
that seek to stand out in the market, ensuring all their resources are used in
favor of a common objective, adding value to their clients.
