Process Improvement and Change Management
From Business Processes to Business Benefits in one easy application
Every new business initiative is an opportunity for process improvement. GEMWorX Process Improvement merges process diagramming and analysis with support for rollout, orientation, change-related training, and process updating. This is how GEMWorX PI speeds and simplifies business change-related activity, enabling both business analysts and change management teams to focus their energies, communicate more effectively, and produce more and better results in less time.
While Visio® is the most widely used tool for depicting business processes and interactions, its users invariably come up against a formidable obstacle when they have created a significant volume of diagrams: it becomes increasingly difficult and time-consuming to keep diagrams 'synchronized' as changes and updates occur. These difficulties all but disappear with FlowModeler. The key information is kept in a database which facilitates the management of diagrams and the global updating of FlowModeler/Visio® documents. The diagrams are presented with a clear hierarchical organization. Multiple layers of descriptive information are linked to Visio® diagram objects, which eliminates the notes and descriptions that tend to clutter diagrams and make them less comprehensible. High level process diagrams guide the users through the model, using direct links to the process maps. Users can thus navigate the entire model from diagram to diagram without ever having to locate or open the actual Visio files.
GEMWorX FlowModeler® is unique in providing a powerful process knowledge capture and analysis tool that is dovetailed with a versatile, Web-based knowledge transfer and training mechanism. Once processes have been captured in FlowModeler/Visio® documents, business users can readily connect diagram objects (process shapes) to a wide range of corporate and departmental information resources. In this way, process diagrams–normally the final deliverable for a Business Process Analysis initiative–are transformed into fast, easy to use, knowledge transfer and operations support solutions.
By enabling business staff and consultants to "Use Visio® Better™", FlowModeler adds value from beginning to end in process analysis, change management, operations training, and process improvement programs.
