Business Process Redesign: Design the Improved Process

Abstract

This thesis reports the results of a business activity modeling exercise to explore how a functional manager in DoD can best improve and redesign one's business processes. The validity of exercise results was assessed and found to be generally accurate with minor modifications. The business activity model was constructed by a faculty/student team in August of 1992, in support of DoD's Corporate Information Management (CIM) initiative. This team used an Integrated Definitions Language (IDEFO) supported software tool (Design/ IDEF by Meta Software of Cambridge, Massachusetts) to construct their model.
