Key Findings & Highlights:
This Business Process case study illustrates a number of key aspects. It shows that:
- An initial “lift-and-shift” can be used to finance process and technology transformation
- Segmentation of processes eliminates the need for having specialist skills and increases the proportion of standard “horizontal” activities; it can have a major impact in improving process scalability and reducing process costs
- A common content workflow for print and digital products can make a major contribution to collaboration and reporting as well as work scheduling
- It is possible to move to a variable-cost per transaction pricing model while simultaneously achieving a significant cost reduction.
