Does your process have a clear objective?
Answer each of the following questions thoughtfully and honestly
1
What am I trying to do?
2
How am I trying to do it?
3
Could there be a better way?
4
Is it clear, specific, and measureable?
5
Is it an essential activity of the business?
6
If there are areas of judgement, is the objective clear enough for the executor to fill in the gaps? If not, there should be a process for how you train - which should observe these same guidelines.
Who is responsible and who is executing?
Your options:
Do it yourself
Delegate it
Outsource it
Eliminate it
