Business Process Design Template

Business Process Design is an essential part of the Software Development Lifecycle. It allows you to capture the broad outline and procedures that govern what a business actually does, from both a technical and operational level. We have developed the following Business Process templates to enable you to capture the significant events, inputs, resources and outputs associated with different business processes.

In addition, these should help you map what is in the scope of the proposed system (as-is processes) and what will be implemented in other ways (to be processes). As business process are often visualized in a flowchart as a sequence of activities we have included three Visio flowcharts in this package.

Benefits of a Business Process template

A Business Process is a set of activities designed to produce a specific output. It is used to capture the specific ordering of work activities, including inputs, outputs, triggers and actions. These Business Process templates will help you to:

Introduce the process and outline its purpose, goal, and outcomes
Identify the fundamental assumptions behind this process. For example, what assumptions does the process audience have in relation to this process and how does the process support those assumptions
Identify where and how the process interfaces with other processes or whether it is a component or sub-components of other processes
Use Visio flowcharts to illustrate process activities, including inputs and outputs, decision points and user activity
Identify data to be collected, such as reports, forms, and policies
Identify reporting requirements associated with the performance of the process and the format it must be delivered in
Identify the audience, role, and individuals who will use the process definition, and the responsibilities of these roles
