Computerizing Business Processes

Introduction

It is commonly observed, regardless of the size and age of the organization, the existence of employees who spend hours in front of stacks of paper or sitting at computer, polishing raw data, once tuned decisions serve to short or long scope.

This phenomenon labor (omnipresent in this age of imperfect rapport between humans and machines) is constantly repeated, burning part of the time span of the worker, in which he could add more value to the company, if his intelligence and talent devoted to tasks more productive or where judgment and human talent, irreplaceable apply. That is why we must be assessed by areas or generally in a company, the relevance of computerizing certain processes. A cost - benefit analysis will be the basis for the decision of computerization (Abramowicz & Mayr, 2007).

Discussion

Computerizing Process

If the address of a company decides to computerize any particular process or all processes of an entire area or enterprise, limited hard decision to choose and buy a program and designed to respond perfectly to the needs covered. Usually it is necessary to adapt the programs found on the market (if time allows).Sometimes, when the features are even more timely sought, must design and program a software tailored either by company personnel or through any external company. To be eligible for any of the two possibilities, there is a need for a thorough understanding of the business requirements and possible solutions.

This implies knowledge of requirements to make it clear what is expected of the software in question, and the way these tools will support the processes of the area (either current or processes reengineered processes to optimize the operation of the area). It is crucial that computer programs are fully consistent with the company's human processes and information flows so that these tools possess performance potential, rather than representing a straitjacket that models how the company should operate ballast for the development of the company. The computerization of an area or activity in a company is a comprehensive work, long-term; they must look ahead and make a planned and thorough (Unione, 2012).

Design Based Situation

In this effort of computerization, it should involve a multidisciplinary team (programmers, leading processes, users) containing different perspectives to contribute to the analysis, design and implementation of the new program. A design based on a biased view of the real situation involves the completion of a program destined to futility. A good design or adaptation will facilitate the work of those who spend hours in front of stacks of documents seeking the valuable number from thousands of figures, the phrase valuable records from shelves.

Feasibility

Computerization of the business processes basically normalize and increases quality processes. Thinking processes to define the tasks based on a workflow states and the participation of the people is carried out based on a model of roles and responsibilities. Think favors processes that take an integrated view of the same by the different departments. Available an automated process to classify processes its definition and its associated documentation. Having a ...
