The Impact

La question de l’évaluation de l’impact de l’approche processus sur la performance constitue un domaine d’investigation non encore bien exploré au Maroc. Du point de vue académique, il s’agit d’approfondir les investigations afin d’enrichir les études antérieures portant sur la problématique de l’approche processus et la performance des organisations. Du point de vue management, il s’agit de satisfaire un besoin des entreprises en apportant des éléments de réponses à la question de contribution de l’approche processus à l’amélioration de la performance. En se basant sur le modèle « Business Process Management Maturity » et « Balanced Score Card », une étude qualitative exploratoire a été menée avec dix-sept professionnels (dont trois experts) opérants dans des secteurs d’activités différents, afin de comprendre la possibilité d’application de la recherche notamment l’existence et les insuffisances des construits sur le terrain. Cette étude exploratoire nous a permis d’examiner les facteurs clés de succès de l’approche processus et leur impact sur la performance de l’entreprise marocaine en proposant à la fin un modèle de recherche reliant l’approche processus et la performance. Cette recherche s’est confrontée, néanmoins, à des limites liées à l’étroitesse de l’échantillon et à l’impossibilité d’accéder aux données. Cette étude ouvre de nouvelles perspectives en termes de recherche comme le test du modèle proposé dans divers secteurs afin d’avoir une validité externe. The evaluation of the impact of the process approach on performance is an area of investigation that has not yet been well explored in Morocco. From an academic point of view, it is a question of deepening the investigations in order to enrich previous studies on the problems of the process approach and the performance of organizations. From a management point of view, it is about satisfying a business need by providing some answers to the question on how the process approach contributes to improving performance. Based on the “Business Process Management Maturity” and “Balanced Score Card” model, an exploratory qualitative study was carried out with seventeen professionals (including three experts) operating in different business sectors. This is aimed at understanding the possible application of research and, in particular, the existence and the inadequacies of constructions in the field. This exploratory study help to examine the key success factors of the process approach and their impact on Moroccan company performance by proposing at the end a research model a correlation between the process approach and performance. This research, however, faced limitations related to the small size of the sample and the inability to access the data. This study opens up new perspectives in terms of research such as testing the proposed model in various sectors to obtain external validity.

AbstractFor almost 30 years, the way of building business process management maturity models (BPM MMs), the importance assigned to individual maturity levels, and the criteria and critical success factors chosen for BPM maturity assessment have not changed significantly, despite the fact that during those three decades, the business environment and organizations themselves have changed enormously. The impact of hyperautomation and the increasing pace of change require the integration of maturity assessment with the BPM implementation methodology, including the repetition of maturity assessment for selected groups of processes. This causes an urgent need to adapt both process maturity assessment methods and BPM MMs to changing working conditions and business requirements. This conceptual paper is based on a model approach. The framework presented in the article continues and at the same time clearly deviates from the tradition of building BPM MMs on the basis of the Capability Maturity Model (CMM). It proposes a two-stage comprehensive process of organizational process maturity assessment, fully integrated into the process of BPM implementation and further business process management. The presented framework makes it possible to assess the process maturity of Industry 4.0 organizations in which dynamic knowledge-intensive business processes (kiBPs) play a key role in creating value.

The Impact

Process approach or Business Process Management (BPM) allows organizing and framing a company by focusing in the improvement of performance in order to gain competitive advantage. Although it is believed that BPM improves various aspects of organizational performance, there has been a lack of empirical studies about this. The present paper has the purpose to study the impact of business process management in companies performance in Moroccan context. To accomplish that, the theoretical basis required to know the elements that configurate BPM and the measures that can evaluate the BPM success on performance is built through a literature review. Then, a research model is proposed. Empirical data has been collected from a survey of Moroccan companies from different sectors. A quantitative analysis has been performed using structural equation modeling (SEM) to show if the direct and indirect effects between BPM and performance can be considered statistically significant. At the end, we have discussed results, their managerial and scientific implications.

Purpose We still know very little about how the IoT are changing the way of interpreting the business process management inside and outside the firms and this topic is progressively becoming very hot in the leading managerial literature (Al Mashari & Zairi, 2000). Then, management scholars are aiming at investigating the impact and the role of the IoT on the business process management in terms of promotion of knowledge flow, innovation and competitiveness. Likewise, management researchers aim at understanding how IoT foster innovation inside organizations and which implication this phenomenon can have on business process management and competitiveness of the firms (Al Mashari & Zairi, 1999). The present paper offers a literature review on the topic, by considering the technological revitalization through the IoT as a key driver for the business process management of the industrial firm. Design/methodology/approach The present paper offers a literature review of the most relevant contributions on IoT and business process management. It presents a qualitative approach to the discussion of the technological revitalization concept within industrial firms using IoT technologies. Findings The rising number of technical contributions using IoT shows that technologies are evolving and there is a learning and application process supported by standardization efforts. Easy installation, standardization, stoutness, configuration and servicing are essential to keep IoT systems operational and hence offering value for the business process management within every industry. From a business process management point of view, value creation from the IoT application to technological revitalizations is pivotal and will affect the use of IoT technologies in the industry, on a progressively higher scale, in the coming years. Originality/value There are still few contributes in the managerial literature which shows the implications of IoT on business process management of industrial firms and, particularly, on technological revitalization. The paper offers a literature review on the topic, at the same presenting some reflections on the application of the IoT to technological revitalizations, within industrial contexts.

The Impact

Business processes are present in all types of organizations, regardless of the size or industry within which the organization operates. Successful business process management (BPM) is an indicator of the level of process maturity of the organization. Within the supply chain, it is possible to observe the presence of business processes of a collaborative nature, as BPM relies on the principles of partnership, development, and exchange of information through links that exist within this chain between all actors [1]. Within this paper, BPM in the relations with suppliers and consumers within the supply chain of organizations operating in the fashion industry is considered. Lambert [2] lists eight macro processes that take place in the supply chain, between suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers and end consumers, as follows: customer relationship management, supplier relationship management, demand management, order execution, fl ow management production, product development and commercialization and return management. Within this paper, a research is presented which analyzes the segments of managing collaborative business processes within the supply chain of the fashion industry, based on the responses of 508 managers and employees in the fashion industry in the Republic of Serbia. The needs for the development of certain segments in accordance with the needs of modern business process management have been explored.Scientifi c novelty. The research part of this paper relies on the application of Friedman's test which enables the analysis of the current state of BPM in relations with suppliers and consumers within the supply chain of the fashion industry, expressed through workers' responses with a ranking of their preferences. This paper contributes to the creation of a knowledge base within the research in the fi eld of the impact of BPM on improvements in the supply chain, on the basis of which it is possible to conduct further research and upgrade knowledge.Practical value. The fi ndings derived from the results of research of this type contribute to the development of the business from various aspects. The benefi ts can be refl ected not only through the strengthening of the competitive position but also through the sustainability of business on the basis of adequate application of BPM practices in all business segments. Accordingly, in addition to the scientifi c novelty, which is refl ected in the results of the rese arch work, there is a practical novelty, which is refl ected in the guidelines for the development of modern BPM within the supply chain of the fashion industry.

AbstractBackground and Purpose: Agent-based modelling and simulation (ABS) is growing in many areas like, e.g., management, social and computer sciences. However, the similar trend does not seem to occur within the field of business process management (BPM), even though simulation approaches like discrete event simulation or system dynamics are well established and widely used. Thus, in our paper we investigate the advantages and disadvantages of agent-based modelling and simulation in the field of BPM in simulation experiments.Design/Methodology/Approach: In our research, we investigate if there is a necessity for ABS in the field of BPM with our own simulation experiments to compare traditional and ABS models. For this purpose, we use simulation framework MAREA, which is a simulation environment with integrated ERP system. Our model is a complex system of a trading company selling computer cables. For the verification of our model, we use automated process discovery techniques.Results: In our simulations, we investigated the impact of changes in resources’ behavior on the outcome of company’s order to cash process (O2C). Simulations experiments demonstrated that even small changes might have statistically significant effect on outcomes of the processes and decisions based on such outcomes. Simulation experiments also demonstrated that the impact of randomly distributed fluctuations of well-being have a diminishing tendency with the increasing number of sales representatives involved in the process.Conclusions: Our research revealed several advantages and disadvantages of using ABS in business process modelling. However, as we show, many of them were at least partially addressed in the recent years. Thus, we believe that ABS will get more attention in the field of BPM similarly to other fields like, e.g., social sciences. We suggested areas in BPM simulations, e.g., modelling of resources, be it human or technological resources, where there is a need for ABS.
