What is a Business Process Architecture?

  A process architecture is a visual, hierarchical model of the processes of an organisation. It is a critical business blueprint that guides decision-makers and executes strategy. Usually created to include, initially, the two or three highest levels, the process architecture provides a powerful visualization and management tool.

  It also captures related resources, documentation, performance measures, measurement methods, and governance arrangements.

Our approach to Business Process Architecture

  Cross-functional business processes are the only way any organisation can deliver value to customers and external stakeholders. More than just a picture or a model, the process architecture is a daily aid to strategic and operational management for continuous improvement and delivery of sustainable customer service excellence.

  Through a series of workshops and discovery sessions, Leonardo helps clients create a viable business process architecture by:

  1. Identifying and understanding the organisation’s strategic intent
  2. Discovering the organisation’s value proposition(s)
  3. Naming and mapping the highest level (level 0) core processes
  4. Decomposing the level 0 core processes to level 1
  5. Decomposing the level 1 processes to level 2 business processes and so on
  6. Documenting and decomposing the shared management and support processes
