SHINCE PETER MS
Business process re-engineering popularly known as BPR,is a
powerful tool for break through improvements.Business re-
engineering means starting all over again, from scratch. It is
not re-organizing or or simply redesigning.It is a
fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of business
processes inorder to acheive dramatic improvements in
areas of critical performance such as cost, quality, service,
supply-chain etc….
• BPR focuses on processes. In the exercise of BPR, It is not
the organization but the processes that are the objects of
re-engineering. should be noted that companies doesnot
re-engineer their departments like marketing,Sales,
Finance etc…, they re-engineer the process of work that the
people of those departments do.Re-engineeringing of the
process is done according to the customers needs, and not
on the internal performance goals.
• Therefore, complete understanding of customers needs,
such as quality, delivery time, lower cost, accurate
information etc…helps in determining how to re-engineer
the process.

PRINCIPLES OF RE- ENGINEERING
Organize the process around outcomes, not tasks.
Eliminate non-value adding step.
Link parallel activities instead of integrating their result at the
end.
Involve key people early.
Put the decision point where the work is performed.
Have those who own the output of the process, perform the
process.
