Description

Poorly designed processes create delays, rework, unclear ownership and controls that fail as the business grows. This course gives you a practical method for designing a new business process from requirements through mapping, testing, implementation and control.


You will begin by defining the purpose of the process and gathering requirements from customers, stakeholders and the people who will operate it. You will then translate those needs into clear design criteria, scope, inputs, outputs, roles and measures. The course shows how to build the future-state process graphically, assess hand-offs and exceptions, and decide where controls are needed.


The design is then tested against realistic scenarios so that gaps, risks and unintended consequences can be addressed before full implementation. You will also learn how ownership, documentation and performance measures support the process after launch and enable it to improve as the organisation changes.


A real-life scenario, practical demonstrations and reusable templates connect the theory to the work you would complete in an organisation. You can follow the course example or apply the approach to a process of your own.


By the end of the course, you will be able to move from an initial need to a structured, tested and controlled business-process design that stakeholders can understand and teams can operate.

Who this course is for:

  • Business analysts gathering requirements and designing future-state workflows.
  • Process owners responsible for creating or replacing business processes.
  • Operations managers improving how work moves between people and teams.
  • Project and transformation professionals designing processes for organisational change.
