Identify the process to be mapped
In this task, you will identify the specific process that needs to be mapped. Consider the impact of the process on the overall organization. What are the desired results from mapping this process? Are there any potential challenges that need to be addressed? Use the form field below to provide a brief description of the process.
Assemble process mapping team
The process mapping team plays a crucial role in accurately mapping the process. They bring their expertise and perspective to ensure a comprehensive understanding. Who will be part of this team? Consider including stakeholders from different departments or roles to gain diverse insights. Use the members form field to select the team members involved.
Determine process boundaries
Every process has its boundaries, defining what is included and what is excluded from the mapping. What are the specific boundaries of the process you are mapping? Consider particular systems, departments, or stages. Use the form field below to describe the process boundaries.
Define process start and end points
To create a clear process map, it is important to determine the start and end points of the process. Where does the process begin, and where does it end? Use the form fields below to specify the process start and end points.
Identify and document key stages of the process
Key stages are the major steps or phases of the process. They provide a high-level overview of the process flow and help identify potential bottlenecks or areas for improvement. What are the key stages of the process you are mapping? Use the subtasks form field to list the key stages.
Identify and list process outputs and inputs
Processes often have inputs and outputs that are critical for their functioning. Identifying and documenting these inputs and outputs helps in better understanding the process flow. What are the inputs and outputs of the process you are mapping? Use the subtasks form field to list the inputs and the outputs separately.

Identify and record process activities
Process activities are the specific actions or tasks within each stage of the process. Identifying and recording these activities provides a detailed view of the process. What are the activities involved in each stage of the process you are mapping? Use the subtasks form field to list the activities for each stage.
Identify and document roles involved in each process activity
Roles are the specific individuals or teams responsible for performing each process activity. Identifying and documenting these roles provides clarity and accountability. Who are the roles involved in each activity of the process you are mapping? Use the subtasks form field to list the roles for each activity.
Identify and document process metrics
Process metrics are the measurable indicators used to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the process. They provide insights into process efficiency and highlight areas for improvement. What are the metrics that need to be tracked for the process you are mapping? Use the subtasks form field to list the process metrics.
Analyze and evaluate the process map
Once the process map is created, it is essential to analyze and evaluate it for accuracy, efficiency, and effectiveness. Take a critical look at the process map and identify any gaps, redundancies, or opportunities for optimization. How would you analyze and evaluate the process map? Use the form field below to provide your evaluation approach.

Identify areas for improvement
Based on the analysis and evaluation of the process map, certain areas for improvement will become evident. These areas might include streamlining activities, reducing bottlenecks, or enhancing overall efficiency. What are the specific areas for improvement that you have identified? Use the subtasks form field to list the areas for improvement.
Make recommendations for process improvement
Now that the areas for improvement have been identified, it is time to make recommendations for process improvement. These recommendations should be practical and actionable, aimed at enhancing the overall effectiveness of the process. What recommendations do you have for process improvement? Use the longText form field to provide your recommendations.
Approval: Recommendations for process improvement
Will be submitted for approval:

Create a final process map document
The final process map document serves as a comprehensive overview of the entire process. It captures all the key stages, activities, roles, inputs, outputs, and metrics. Use the fileUpload form field to upload the final process map document in the desired format, such as PDF or Word.
Prepare process mapping training material
Before conducting the process mapping training, it is necessary to prepare the training material. This material will provide a structured guide for participants to understand and learn the process mapping methodology. What training material do you need to prepare? Consider documents, presentations, or videos. Use the subtasks form field to list the training material.
Approval: Training material
Will be submitted for approval:
Prepare process mapping training material
Will be submitted
Conduct process mapping training
Now it's time to deliver the process mapping training to the intended audience. This training session will equip participants with the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively map processes. Who will be conducting the training? Use the members form field to select the trainer(s).
Evaluate training effectiveness
Once the process mapping training is concluded, it is crucial to evaluate its effectiveness. This evaluation helps identify the strengths and weaknesses of the training delivery and content. How will you evaluate the effectiveness of the training? Use the subtasks form field to list the evaluation criteria.
