Process & Document Management

Business process management (BPM) is a systematic approach to making an organization's workflow more effective, more efficient and more capable of adapting to an ever-changing environment. A business process is an activity or set of activities that will accomplish a specific organizational goal.  Sandesign can help companies document their processes in support of their business operations manual.

​

Document management, often referred to as Document Management Systems (DMS), is the use of a computer system to store, manage and track electronic documents. A company should have good templates, processes and version control to ensure efficient document production and professional issue to clients.  Sandesign can help with all aspect of Document, Creation and Management to ensure a company’s process is as efficient as possible.

Business Process Management (BPM)

Business process management is a field in operations management that focuses on improving corporate performance by managing and optimizing a company's business processes.  It can therefore be described as a "process optimization process". It is argued that BPM enables organizations to be more efficient, more effective and more capable of change than a functionally focused, traditional hierarchical management approach.  These processes can impact the cost and revenue generation of an organisation.

​

As a policy-making approach, BPM sees processes as important assets of an organization that must be understood, managed, and developed to announce value-added products and services to clients or customers. This approach closely resembles other total quality management or continual improvement process methodologies and BPM proponents also claim that this approach can be supported, or enabled, through technology.
