Introduction:
Design management encompasses the ongoing processes, business decisions, and strategies
that enable innovation and create effectively designed products, services, communications,
environments, and brands that enhance our quality of life and provide organizational success.
Process management is a systematic approach to ensure that effective and efficient business
processes are in place. It is a methodology used to align business processes with strategic goals.
Develop and maintain a business environment in which an organization can achieve its
strategic goals through design, and by establishing and managing an efficient and effective
system.
Effective process management has several benefits for businesses. Overall, it:
Mature process management allows businesses to quickly review and adapt their processes in
real-time and remain responsive to unforeseen situations.
Information from the process owner plus data from automation improves reporting transparency
and enables prompt insight into operational performance.
Increases revenue potential: 46% of companies surveyed felt that process management
offered a route to cost savings and increased revenue, resulting in a stronger business
strategy.
Mapping an organization’s processes clarifies where to reduce costs or save time through process
improvement.
Optimizing some processes — such as lead times for product sales — can also directly increase
revenue.
Feeling purposeful increases employee engagement, and it frees up time for employees to focus
on other areas such as their development, further increasing engagement levels.
Process owners and wider employee groups should be encouraged to brainstorm innovative ideas
that optimize processes and increase productivity and be rewarded for doing so.
