It supports both “IS” process documentation for analysis and “SHOULD” process mapping for implementation and continuous improvement, while making cross-functional workflows visible. Guidance covers band layout by customers, suppliers, and related roles, optional placement of systems and a “Misc.” band, step labeling, output tracing, mapping conventions, and time planning to complete the exercise.","CROSS-FUNCTIONAL PROCESS MAP\nA Cross-Functional Process Map is a picture of the sequenced steps across functions that depict how input(s) are converted to output(s). It shows the flow of inputs/outputs across a process and the applicable functions in the organization.\nWhen to Use\nUse the map to:\nDocument the “IS” Process for understanding and analysis.\nDocument the “SHOULD” Process for Implementation and continuous improvement.\nShow cross-functional workflows.\nHow to Use\nLay out the horizontal bands on the chart that represent the Functions.\nCross-Functional Process Map Template\nPlace the Customers/Markets band on top and the Suppliers band on the bottom. Label the other bands accordingly.\nCross-Functional Process Map Labeled\nYou may want to include a \"Misc.\" band at the bottom where you can include such items as: Remarks, Times, Costs, Quality Components, and Comments. If systems are involved in the process, you may want to place a systems band near the middle.\nIdentify the sub-processes involved in the process.\nCross-Functional Process Map with Sub-Processes.\nPlace the first step in the process in the appropriate band. Indicate the step's activity with a noun and a verb in the past tense. (e.g. Needs Evaluated, Quotes Requested, Product Concept Tested).\nCross-Functional Process Map – Steps\nIdentify the output and where it goes. Place another step in the appropriate band and label the step. Draw an arrow from the output side of the previous step to this step and label the arrow with the output.\nCross-Functional Process Map – Output\nContinue by asking yourself, \"What is accomplished or completed in this step? What is the output and where does it go?\"\nCross-Functional Process Map – Output, cont.\nRefer to the following mapping conventions.\nMapping Conventions\nRevise the map as needed and number the boxes from top to bottom (left to right for reference purposes only).\nWhen creating the draft Cross-Functional “IS” Process Map, DO NOT label the potential Disconnects perceived by the interviewees on the map at this point. You do not want to pre-dispose potential Disconnects to the Design Team. Instead, you will walk through the map, step-by-step, allowing them to identify and discuss the Disconnects. The idea is to create ownership of the process by Design Team members so that they are vested in the improvement.\nTime Required\nThe time required to complete a Cross-Functional Process Map will vary based on the complexity of the process. Plan to spend at least a few hours.","cbCainXrXNm9PlD2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainXrXNm9PlD2","docx",71208,3,"English","en",105,"# When to Use\n# How to Use\n## Layout and Bands\n## Sub-processes and Steps\n## Output Tracing\n# Mapping Conventions\n# Time Required","[{\"question\":\"What is a cross-functional process map used for?\",\"answer\":\"It documents sequenced steps across functions to show how inputs become outputs.
