What problem does it solve? Redesigning a business process without a structured method often leads to automating broken workflows or making changes without justification. This Skill guides the Design phase of Business Process Analysis (BPA), producing a To-Be Process Map and Change Rationale grounded in the prior As-Is analysis. ## Core Features & Use Cases - ESIA Redesign Framework: Applies the four principles — Eliminate, Simplify, Integrate, Automate — in the correct order, with criteria, per-industry examples, and anti-patterns for each. - To-Be Process Map Template: Provides a structured template with swimlanes, change-type tagging per activity, As-Is vs. To-Be metric comparison, and stakeholder validation tables. - Change Rationale Documentation: Records the justification and risk for every change so process executors understand the "why", supporting change management in the implementation phase. - Use Case: After completing an Activity Value Analysis of a procurement process, use this Skill to eliminate duplicate approvals, simplify the request form, integrate the four disconnected systems, and automate supplier notifications — producing an approved To-Be map ready for implementation. ## Quick Start Redesign the procurement process using the completed bpa:analyze results and produce the To-Be Process Map with change rationale.

FAQPage Schema
How do I redesign a business process after process analysis?▼

Apply the four ESIA principles in order: Eliminate NVA activities first, then Simplify remaining BVA activities, Integrate fragmented actors or systems, and Automate only rule-based repetitive steps. Document each change with its justification in a Change Rationale.

What is the correct order for eliminate, simplify, integrate, automate?▼

Always apply Eliminate first, then Simplify, then Integrate, and Automate last. Automating a non-value-added activity before eliminating it perpetuates waste at higher speed and is the most costly BPA error.

When should I not automate a process activity?▼

Avoid automation for activities with high variability requiring human judgment, volumes under roughly five instances per month where ROI is negative, activities still classified as NVA, and processes undergoing frequent redesign.

What inputs are required before designing a To-Be process map?▼

You need a completed and approved bpa:analyze phase: the Activity Value Analysis classifying activities as VA/BVA/NVA, the Gap Analysis with target metrics, documented technical and regulatory constraints, and a prioritized list of improvement opportunities.

How do I validate a To-Be process design with stakeholders?▼

Walk the Process Owner through the map step by step, review executability with process executors, confirm technical feasibility of automations with IT, check eliminated or simplified activities with compliance, and present As-Is versus To-Be metrics to the sponsor.
