APOS Process Management

Work Processes vs Workflow Automation - the difference

A Work Process used as governing documentation - is a non automated process view illustrating a number of steps to be taken in order to achieve a specific result. A work process clearly defines roles and responsibilities and are ideally combined with governing elements in order for employees to have a clear understanding of the task to be performed and the requirements and risks involved if any. Work Processes are generally used to replace complicated procedures written as documents where the risk of human error is evaluated to be relevant. Many modern organizations manage their whole operation using Work Processes as this ensures higher control and efficiency.

In conclusion a Work Process in this context means Governing Documentation - defining how work is to be performed.

Work Flow is an automated Process assisting with performing the actual task. For example reporting of deviations can be considered an automated process.
