Business process improvement

As your organization develops and changes, you need to ensure that operations are carried out in a manner that is driven by the business needs of the organization and that they are fit for purpose with respect to design, efficiency and effectiveness.

Our approach

Forvis Mazars business process services can help your organization to develop and change, to derive the maximum business value from your people, processes, systems and resources and to increase efficiency and reduce risk in the delivery of value for money business operations.

This involves the consideration of the following issues:

• Are repetitive or manual tasks automated where possible – thus freeing up valuable time and expertise to concentrate on activities that add more value?
• Are activities or tasks unnecessarily repeated by multiple people?
• Is data captured early in a process, thus ensuring that it can be used when required and is stored only once?
• Are processes standardized or do multiple versions of the same processes get repeated in different parts of the organization thus reducing efficiency and standardization of systems etc.?
• Do processes rely on the experience of key personnel who if they leave the organization take a lot of knowledge with them?
• Is the principle of segregation of incompatible duties applied?
