Faster and more Flexible than BPR - Alternative Approaches?

Alternate Methodology for Doing BPR
asif, Analyst, Pakistan, Member
After identifying, documenting and studying business the processes of the oraganization, you can use any of following 3 approaches for the redesign phase rather than going for the redesigning of all the processes in a single go.
1. Dysfunction: which processes are in the deepest trouble?
2. Importance: which processes have the greatest impact on customers?
3. Feasibility: which processes are the most susceptible to re-design?
If there is no need of redesign then you can go for process improvement (TQM and Kaizen).

Key in BPR is Breakthough Improvement and Drastic Changes
Raj Mohan, Management Consultant, India, Member
I agree that there are many methods for process improvement. But, BPR expects breakthrough improvement and changes drastically. But the systems like Kaizen and TQM are done in a systematic slow pace and takes longer time for implementation. Kaizen addresses a small improvement only that need not solve a problem but makes some improvement in the process.
