Re-engineering or Work Process Improvement


Improving business and work processes generates more profits and makes an organization more competitive. For many organizations, streamlining processes provide the biggest opportunity to improve the bottom line.

A work process is any activity or group of activities that takes an input, and adds value to it, and provides an output to an internal or external customer. Most processes are very complicated, and they include many steps or sub-steps.

In any large company, there are hundreds of processes. These relate to management and its responsibility for planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling work. These work processes further relate to development, accounting, distribution, information systems, purchasing, production controls, and such functional areas as operations, engineering, maintenance, quality assurance, and human resource management. For example, if one looks at processes in the area of human resource management, they will find numerous processes involved in selecting, interviewing, hiring, orienting, training, and evaluating the performance of an employee.

MDI helps its clients make their business and work processes more user friendly and effective so they produce the desired results, more efficient by minimizing the resources used, and more adaptable to changing needs. Our services include: identifying problems and needs with processes, and making improvement recommendations or correcting the problems; developing and introducing new processes; creating and training work process teams, and ensuring that the appropriate changes are made; eliminating unnecessary layers in the organization to simplify work, and to reduce time and cost; improving the work control system or computer database and software used to schedule, track, and record work processes, both performance and results; and, evaluating the effectiveness of change and measuring progress.
