Process automation is the backbone of effective business process management (BPM). By automating processes, businesses can achieve real-time visibility into their operations, identify and resolve errors quickly, and make changes to processes on the fly.

Automation also allows businesses to scale their operations more effectively, as they can easily add or remove steps from a process as needed. In short, process automation is essential for businesses that want to improve their process management capabilities.

Optimise Your Business Process for Maximum Productivity

 

Gartner® defines business process management as “a discipline that uses various methods to discover, model, analyse, measure, improve and optimise business processes.” Managing business process requires coordination of people, systems and technology, and information to perform the tasks needed to drive business goals and strategy.


The Five Phases of the Process
Automation Lifecycle

A process automation lifecycle covers the entire spectrum of process automation, from the simplest to the most complex. A process automation engagement involves five main areas:

01

Design and Map

Analyse the current process to identify opportunities for improvement.

02

Model

Evaluate how the new process will work under different scenarios.

03

Execute

Implement the latest workflows and technologies.

04

Monitor

Track and report key metrics to measure the success of the new process.

05

Optimise

Adjust the process as needed to improve efficiencies.

Ricoh provides a comprehensive set of tools and services to support each stage of the lifecycle, from initial design and mapping through final deployment and optimisation.
