Advantages of process management software

By using process management software – for example, as part of an ISO certification – companies first gain an overview of which procedures and processes exist in the various departments, how relevant they are, what responsibilities exist, and for whom this information is relevant. Also, information required in quality management, such as input and output, can be defined in processes. Unlike a quality manual, which is a static document, information about business processes can be updated and adapted at any time. An unchangeable log-function ensures that all changes are stored in an audit-proof manner.

In the second step, process management software ensures a reduction in administrative effort. Process Management assigns different statuses to the various business processes:

Functions such as process automation can be used to define rules according to which business processes are automatically placed in review status after a certain time has elapsed or when certain events occur. Responsible parties are notified. The use of process management software thus ensures that the entire lifecycle of a business process (from planning to publication to review and possibly archiving) can take place dynamically and flexibly with little administrative effort. This is particularly important for companies where business processes may change due to changing market conditions. The classic quality manual quickly becomes outdated, whereas in process management software all information is always up-to-date.
