Process Management - An Overview
Business processes are a series of activities performed by a group of users to achieve a specific goal. Whether it's a small startup or a large corporate firm, most organizations have countless processes running every day that aids in streamlining their business. A client on-boarding, content marketing, managing deliveries or manager's approval all come under this big umbrella - 'Business process'.
Business processes could be specific to one department or require input from people in multiple departments, increasing the risk of tasks being overlooked, errors being introduced, or gaps in information. Therefore, it's important to set a standard procedure to avoid inconsistencies, redundancies, or gaps in the process.
Zoho CRM offers some easy-to-use features that can help build flowcharts and create logical steps for the process to make it repeatable, productive, and well structured.
Blueprint: A blueprint is a flowchart that represents end-to-end operations in a business process.
