It involves systematically managing, optimizing, and refining processes to ensure that they operate at their highest potential, delivering high-quality outcomes while minimizing waste and inefficiencies.
Six Sigma, Lean and Kaizen are examples of process excellence frameworks that can help foster a culture of continuous improvement, helping to align processes with organizational goals. Additionally, by adopting digital tools and technologies, organizations can significantly contribute to achieving process excellence by improving accuracy, reducing manual effort and enhancing overall productivity.
