Business Process Improvement Tools & Methodology for Education

Faculty
-- If you are teaching business process improvement, don't settle for a tool designed to document computer programs or systems.  Introduce your students to the only flowcharting tool designed to display all the related items involved in a business process. Prepare your students with a skill that they will be able to apply immediately.

Students -- Detail process mapping is a skill that can add value to any position.  This tool has helped many new employees gain a quick general understanding of the workings of the organization -- a level of understanding that many long-time employees never achieve.

Detail Process Mapping fundamentals are demonstrated here.

Administrators
-- A number of Educational Institutions have recognized value that can be achieved by applying process improvement methodology to their processes.  They include University of Western Ontario, Boston College, Harvard University, University of Central Florida, University of Dayton, University of Delaware...

Book: Ben B Graham is author of the book "Detail Process Charting: Speaking the language of Process" that provides instructional coverage of the process mapping methodology.  It is available from Wiley and at Amazon, B&N and other booksellers.

Boston University used detail process charts and process improvement to develop an effective system for processing financial aid.  We educated a team of five people.  The processes were charted and their team developed an excellent Financial Aid System that easily handled the next year’s onslaught. 

Later, the Executive Director of the Massachusetts Association for Financial Aid Administrators engaged us to put on a workshop for their members.  She told us that Boston University was the only University in Massachusetts (at that time) with an effective process for handling Financial Aid and they referred her to our workshops for education in the methods that they used to solve their problems.  They also completed other successful projects in the areas of student loans and financial aid with excellent results, improved customer service, etc.

The University of Western Ontario used our methodology very extensively during the early 1990s.  We educated about 130 of their people and they completed numerous projects in conjunction with a major quality assurance effort.  They set up teams that streamlined their purchasing systems, credit card, travel expense, bookstore, research office, print shop and others. 

Graham process charts help people understand process details - quickly.
