Workflow Mapping
Understand the complete journey of work across people, systems and decisions.
Many processes are understood only in fragments. Individual teams know their own tasks, but the organisation may lack a complete view of how a request, decision, customer need or operational activity moves from beginning to end.
Workflow mapping brings those fragments together.
