Business Navigation System
The Right Business Navigation System Can Keep Your Business on a Profitable Path
The accelerated pace of modern business is too often matched by an acceleration of errors, waste, and missed opportunities. Business navigation system technologies hold the promise of providing decision makers with controls that can keep pace with today’s super-charged business process cycles, thereby reducing error and waste and better capitalizing on fast-moving opportunities.
A business navigation system works for your business in a way similar to how GPS works for the driver of a car. The driver specifies his destination and the GPS system charts the best course to that destination; the GPS tracks the driver’s progress and alerts him to upcoming turns; and if the driver deviates from the mapped course the GPS recalibrates a new best course based on the driver’s current position. For your business, a business navigation system:
- Facilitates your charting of an operational course, in the form of business processes and process performance metrics.
- Tracks and makes visible the real-time motion of your business, in the form of process executions, transactions, and events, as they happen.
- Alerts you when events or event patterns deviate from course in a way that indicates emerging problems, inefficiencies, or opportunities; and supports either automated or user-selected course corrections in real time.
- Facilitates your ongoing refinement of processes and performance metrics – ongoing improvement of the “map” – based on accumulated information and knowledge.
