Most businesses waste way too much time on mundane recurring tasks that detract from high-level work.

So what’s the solution? Use automation to eliminate as much recurring work as possible.

The result is improved productivity (as much as 20-25% according to McKinsey).

About 66% of businesses have automated at least one business process, and it is expected that about 69% of all managerial work will be completely automated by 2024. 

In line with all of this, our engineering wizards have been unleashing a torrent of exciting new updates, and in this blog post, I’ll take you on a tour of the world of webhooks – one of our latest, and most awe-inspiring, features yet!

In the right hands, webhooks are nothing short of a game-changer, packed with endless possibilities. Let’s start with a basic overview.

Cutthroat. Ruthless. Dog-eat-dog.

No, I’m not introducing this year’s hottest action movie – I’m talking about the world of business.

Nowadays, it’s quicker and easier than ever to get a business up and running. Hell, with the emergence of low code and no-code platforms, it’s not just quick and easy but downright simple.

But only 3 out of 4 companies featured in the S&P 500 list will still be relevant – and even exist – in 2027.

With this stark realization, how do startup hopefuls and the Fortune 500 alike know if they’ve got the resources and capabilities to not only stay in the game for the long-haul, but have an overall competitive advantage?

VRIO.

I last discussed VRIO in my post What is VRIO? The 4-Step Framework for Continuous Business Success, where I laid the foundation for understanding what VRIO is, where it came from, and how to navigate the framework.

However, in this post, I’ll be taking things one step further.

I’ll recap what VRIO is (handy for those who don’t already know!), discuss the specific benefits of VRIO analysis, and even provide you with a free VRIO analysis checklist – made by us here at Process Street!

Just read through the following sections to get started:

• What is the VRIO definition?
• The benefits of using the VRIO model for business analysis
• Using Process Street’s VRIO analysis checklist
• Tips for undergoing VRIO analysis with our checklist
• Additional resources for a sustained competitive advantage

The clock’s ticking, so let’s jump in! ⏱

At Process Street, we’re proud to rock process management. So much so, we try to encourage a culture of continuous improvement across all of our internal teams & processes.

It’s even in our name. 

So how is it that our content team ended up using a process that was in pretty dire need of a redesign? 

And not just any process, mind you – the process of processes. The process we live and breathe by. The process that defines everything we do – including this very post. The one process to rule us all.

That’s right: Our blog production process was broken. 

We knew it, too. That was the worst part. The entire team was painfully aware of exactly how broken and inefficient the blog production process (BPP) had gotten. 

But you know how it is. Redesigning the blog production process became that thing that’s always on tomorrow’s to-do list.

By the time we finally found the capacity to tackle the process redesign project, there were more exceptions to the process than rules – which is not a good process management system at all. 

So the question became: How do we redesign a process that is constantly in use without breaking everything?

This is how we did it.

• Challenge: Our most essential process… broke
• Solution: Reengineer the process… But when?
• Results: A process that works; a team that’s productive
• Future: Continuous assessment & improvement

“Can prioritizing onboarding really help boost retention?” you may be asking yourself.

The short answer is yes, it really can.

For this episode of Process Street‘s Employee Onboarding Podcast, the team participated in an employee onboarding panel at the HR Transform conference in Las Vegas.

We had a great time hanging out with customers and discussing how important a role onboarding plays in retaining your talent long term.

The speakers were:

• Vinay Patankar – CEO and Co-founder of Process Street
• Danielle Monaghan – VP Global Talent at Uber (now Google)
• Greg Russell – Head of Talent at Snapdocs

Some key points discussed during the panel included:

• Preboarding = better retention
• Personalize onboarding as much as possible
• Transparency helps facilitate process improvement
• Good hiring & onboarding takes a village

We achieved SOC 2, Type 2 compliance at Process Street, and I want to give you a quick rundown of what that security milestone means for us and our customers.

As we help thousands of organizations implement business-critical processes, an incredible amount of data is constantly moving through or being stored on our platform. You’ve entrusted us to securely handle your user and workflow information at all times, and we take that responsibility seriously every day. 

Part of our commitment to security manifests in the admin and user controls we make directly available to you — for example, role-based access, single sign-on, and identity management integrations.

But a lot of the work to keep your data safe happens behind the scenes, and that’s where SOC 2 comes in.
