Description: A Weblog for Larry Irons
To start let’s consider two distinctions about organizational processes. Following Sig over at Thingamy, two basic types of processes exist: easily repeatable processes (ERPs) and barely repeatable processes (BRPs).
ERPs : Processes that handle resources, from human (hiring, firing, payroll and more) to parts and products through supply chains, distribution and production.
BRPs : Typically exceptions to the ERPs, anything that involves people in non-rigid flows through education, health, support, government, consulting or the daily unplanned issues that happens in every organisation.
