Process-managed organizations are required to use process monitoring (process-oriented management approach is discussed here and monitoring basics here ). For this purpose, they use indicators that provide guidance to continual improvement and effective use of resources. Thanks to them, organizations gain information on whether they are moving in the chosen direction in order to implement their […]

The process approach should be understood analogously to the mechanism in which each mode contributes to its operation. Similarly, each process identified in the organization contributes to its effects.
In other words, the process is understood as events taking place in time. First, these events follow one another, and second, they lead to the formation of causally specific changes.
Above all, in the ISO 9000: 2015 standard, in point 2.3.4.1, we find the process approach declaration. It says: “Consistent and predictable results are achieved more effectively and efficiently when activities are understood and managed as interrelated processes that function as a coherent system.” Further in the justification in point 2.3.4.2, the standard additionally develops the process approach. “QMS consists of interrelated processes. Understanding the mechanism of generating results in such a system enables the organization to optimize the system and its effects ”.
In conclusion from the above, the essence of process-based management follows. Namely: each organization has a system of interrelated processes. Everyone influences the achievement of the adopted goals by the organization. Therefore to meet them, there is a need to identify the elements that make up the process approach.
After that, I’ll tell you why you should always use them.
When designing a process, we usually think about specific requirements set for it, for example, under the ISO 9001: 2015 standard. It defines in section 4.4. requirements for the quality management system and its processes. Probably if I had not examined the process approach as part of my dissertation, I would have concluded that what […]
The essence of processes presented in the article on the process approach largely relates to the requirements for processes. In this article, I’ll explain what a well-designed process needs to have. Components of the process When describing the process approach, I have already mentioned that the most popular description of the process is presented in […]
Just as each gear contributes to the operation of the mechanism, each process identified in the organization contributes of its effects. In this article, you will learn why, from all the quality principles, process approach is – in my opinion – the most important. How to understand the process? A process is understood as events […]
