Study Notes
BPM Project Success Factors
- A process-modelling tool is useless without a methodology, skilled resources, and genuine commitment from organizational leadership, according to Jeston and Nelis (2006).
- Critical success factors for BPM projects include linkage to organizational strategy, process architecture, structured approach to implementation, realizing value, and project initiation and completion.

- Empowerment of stakeholders involved in BPM is essential, indicating new roles and responsibilities.
- A structured approach to BPM implementation is necessary, considering the organization's strategy and implementing a systema tic approach.

- Process analysis applies analytical techniques to determine weaknesses and their potential impact, identifying issues associated with as-is processes.
Process Redesign and Improvement
- Process redesign involves identifying changes to the process that would help address issues identified in the previous phase and allow the organization to meet its performance goals.
- The goal of process redesign is to identify changes to the process that would help address issues and allow the organization to meet its performance goals.
