Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
Introduction
When French novelist Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr wrote “Plus ça change, plus
c’est la meme chose,” he could have been penning an epigram about change
management. For over three decades, academics, managers, and consultants, realizing
that transforming organizations is difficult, have dissected the subject. They’ve sung the
praises of leaders who communicate vision and walk the talk in order to make change
efforts succeed. They have sanctified the importance of changing organizational culture
and employees’ attitudes. They have teased out the tensions between top-down
transformation efforts and participatory approaches to change. However, the more things
change, the more they stay the same.
The Process Classification Framework was created in collaboration with many
experts and practitioner panels in 1992. It is a globally recognized business process
model that defines activities and processes across thirteen enterprise-level operating and
management categories. The Process Classification Framework enables companies to
understand their inner workings from a horizontal process viewpoint rather than a vertical
functional viewpoint. Moreover, the framework does not list all processes within a
company and every process listed in the framework does not represent in every
organization.
The framework can help answer the question of how a company is doing and
therefore help validate the company’s operational objectives. The benefits of employing
the Process Classification Framework includes reduced inventory, improved customer /
suppliers relationships, improved sales, improved profit margins, and more enriching jobs
for employees. The globally recognized business leaders armed with the taxonomy of the
business processes: industry best practices, benchmarking tools and risks and controls,
will definitely outperform the competitors.

Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
Change Management
In recent years, many change management experts have focused on soft issues,
such as culture, motivation and leadership. Such elements are important for success, but
managing these aspects alone is not sufficient to implement transformation projects. Soft
factors does not directly influence the outcomes of many change programs. The same can
be said about communication with employees. Moreover, it is not easy to change
attitudes or relationships; they are deeply ingrained in organizations and people. And
although changes in, say, culture or motivation levels can be indirectly gauged through
surveys and interviews, it is tough to get reliable data on soft factors.
What is missing, is a focus on the not-so-fashionable aspects of change
management: the hard factors. These factors bear three distinct characteristics.
1. First, companies are able to measure them in direct or indirect ways.
2. Second, companies can easily communicate their importance, both within and
outside organizations.
3. Third, and perhaps most important, businesses are capable of influencing those
elements quickly.
Some of the hard factors that affect a transformation initiative are the time necessary to
complete it, the number of people required to execute it, and the financial results that
intended actions are expected to achieve. If companies do not pay attention to the hard
issues first, transformation programs will break down before the soft elements come into
play.
Change management is a basic skill in which most leaders and managers need to
be competent. There are very few working environments where change management is
not important. Tips on how change management principles can be applied. When leaders
or managers are planning to manage change, there are five key principles that need to be
kept in mind:
1. Different people react differently to change
2. Everyone has fundamental needs that have to be met
3. Change often involves a loss, and people go through the "loss curve"
4. Expectations need to be managed realistically

sales, and marketing efficiency. The PCF is available free of charge at www.apqc.org and
serves as an industry neutral enterprise model that allows organizations to see their
activities from a cross-industry process viewpoint, benchmark against organizations
globally, and adopt best practices (CBS Interactive Inc., 2009).
Performance improvement begins with measuring the effectiveness and efficiency
of business operations to identify and implement changes needed for optimal success, as
noted by PricewaterhouseCoopers (2009).

Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
purchasing behavior, lifestyles, and demographics, are more likely to attract targeted
buyers. For example, McDonald's Corporation recently began to tailor its restaurants to
suit the differing tastes and lifestyles of its customers. McDonald’s European operations
have interior designs catering to a more relaxed lifestyle where the customers usually
linger over meals. The new design features leather, fabric, and stainless steel furnishings
in a lounge-like setting that is far different than the traditional McDonald's interiors in the
U.S. (Kerry Capell, 2008). The fast food chains are currently analyzing more complex
behaviors to gain deeper insight into customer preferences and whether the company is
meeting those preferences.
2. Develop Vision and Strategy – This is defined as the process of preparing for
future success with strategic plans that address both short and long-term business
objectives (PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2009). The most successful companies are generally
those that apply best practices in today's fast-paced, globally-connected economies and
continuously gather knowledge on:
Technological and societal trends
Product launches and competitors
Regulatory and legal issues
Robert H. Rosen, Chief Executive at PWC’s Global Best Practices (2008) noted that
company’s leaders stay focused by restricting the scope of the information and by making
certain that scanning efforts meet the company's business objectives per its operating
sphere. This helps to ensure that business leaders have the necessary information to align
their company’s activities with corporate objectives and execute them strategically in
response to marketplace changes. In this interconnected global economy, the astute
leaders fully understand four principles:
Prioritization of objectives
Courage
Discipline
Flexibility
Successful leaders are those that are able to balance the four principles and not favor one
at the expense of another.

Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
The Procter & Gamble Company (P&G) is known for its data-mining ability with
its employees and its portfolio of more than 300 brands, noted Robert H. Rosen (2008).
Despite the company’s complex size, its strategies, goals, and performance measurements
are summarized in just one page. Robert H. Rosen (2008) noted that to keep track of
company’s large volume of brands and product development, they must adopt the use of
computer technologies. Straightforward, separate documents give the status of each
product with a color-coded indicator. Rosen (2008) went on to say:
Products that are on target are listed in green, while those that are off
target are in red and those that are making progress are in yellow. Setting
proper parameters for data collected helps leaders at P&G gain insight into
challenges and set goals and strategies in areas critically requiring
attention.
Delivering the right information to the right people at the right time allows companies to
respond to market forces with greater speed and efficiency. With greater knowledge,
companies can anticipate and even preempt marketplace changes by instituting strategies
that keep the company ahead of the competition.

Pixar's eight directors make up the company's “Creative Brain Trust” which was
first established when a crisis arose in the early stages of making Toy Story, the first fully
animated feature-length film (Harvard Business Review, 2008). When a director or
producer needs assistance, the Trust convenes and enlists the help of someone else within
the company with the relevant skills and ability to make a contribution for improving the
movie. This approach allows for a frank exchange of expert opinions, enabling the film's
director to receive valuable input and advice. Pixar success as a company is evidenced by
the fact that nearly a quarter of the company has gained nearly a quarter of the movie
box-office revenues for all animated films in recent years beginning with Toy Story,
released in 1999. Followed by that movie's sequel, as well as A Bug's Life, Monsters, Inc.,

Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille, and Wall-E, all of which appealed to
both children and adults (Harvard Business Review, 2008).
4. Market and Sell - This is defined as the process of developing strategies and
procedures to position products and services in the marketplace and achieve high levels
of market share (PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2009). Depressed sales stemming from the
current economic crisis have taken a toll on retail chain businesses around the globe.
Several retailers have therefore revisited the strategy of maintaining or boosting revenues
by customizing prices for different customer segments, recognizing that customers value
products and services differently in various locales (The Wall Street Journal, 2009). The
U.S. brand Gap Inc. has engaged in various forms of localized discounting, rather than
marking down prices uniformly. Andria Cheng at the Wall Street Journal (2009) noted
that the company’s strategy is as follows:
Items will sell quickly in one region, thus offsetting the need for greater
price slashing elsewhere. Gap's price customization strategy has
succeeded. For each of the five months through May 2009, merchandise
profit margins met or exceeded levels of the same period in 2008. And in
addition to offering regional discounts, the company received such a
positive response to a military discount initially offered only at its Old
Navy stores in Southern California, U.S. that it instituted the program at
all stores in the chain.
The increasing popularity of this method is evidenced by a study by the National Retail
Federation trade group. The Federation found that more than one-fifth of U.S. retailers
use "markdown optimization" software systems, while 33% plan to put the technology in
place within the next 18 months (The Wall Street Journal, 2009). By tailoring prices to
needs, companies are better positioned to survive competitive pressures and economic
uncertainty.

ink refill sale rather than the look and feel of the printer itself (BusinessWeek, 2009).
After manufacturing a glossy, jet-black, five-inch high printer that looked like no other
printer, Samsung sold it exclusively through Apple Inc.'s retail stores at a price that was
25% higher than competing printers, noted Cliff Edwards at BusinessWeek (2009).
Choosing a new distribution channel that reinforces marketing and sales strategies
turned out to be a success story for Samsung. The company’s printer market share in the
U.S. jumped from 2.3% to 3.6% in one year, with its share of the worldwide market
rising to 25% from 13.4% (BusinessWeek, 2009). Companies such as Samsung that
smartly pair products with distribution channels can effectively make market shifts,
invigorate their product development process, and increase their profitability through
innovation.
5. Produce and Deliver Products and Services - This is defined as the process of
managing the production process, from resource and project management, to inventory
and warehousing, to delivery and service support (PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2009). Josh
Hyatt at CFO (2009) noted that the critical dependencies in today's complex supply chain
networks can create serious vulnerabilities, especially when so many companies are on
shaky financial ground. Companies that apply best practices take steps to reduce supply
chain risk by monitoring their suppliers. Managers watch out for financial and legal risks
such as a history of poor payment, weak credit, tax liens or judgments, outstanding
lawsuits, securities violations, and regulatory noncompliance (CFO Magazine, 2009).
When a company has thousands of suppliers located around the globe, continuous
monitoring of their suppliers can be too involved. To make the challenge more

Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
manageable, leading companies identify their critical suppliers and dedicate more
resources to scrutinizing that smaller group. Some companies even use external
consulting or investigative services to research potential suppliers' financial strength and
business integrity (CFO, 2009). For example, the U.S. based Cisco Systems, Inc. focuses
extra attention on the key suppliers to its 100 highest revenue products. Cisco, a Fortune
500 technology company, tracks the publicly traded suppliers among that group through a
financial monitoring service that determines the probability of supplier default based on
the value of the supplier's assets, its asset volatility, and its capital structure Josh Hyatt at
CFO (2009) noted. Supply chain risk management techniques help companies such as
Cisco to maintain a predictable and lean supply chain.
Best practices companies synchronize demand and supply plans by using tools
designed to improve demand forecasting accuracy, thereby gaining cross-functional
consensus on forecasts and aligning those plans with their financial objectives
(IndustryWeek, 2009). In effect, such companies lower inventory and supply chain costs
while improving sales and profit margins. Terumo Cardiovascular Systems, Inc., a
medical products manufacturer based in Michigan, U.S.A, implemented supply chain
planning tools to increase their views into customers' buying habits and sharpen their
sales forecasts, said Bill MacDonald at Industry Week (2009). He went on to say:
The company also developed a manage-by-exception capability that
provided early alerts when demand flows went outside normal parameters.
As a result, Terumo reduced its inventory by 36% within one fiscal year,
which translated into $1 million USD saved on storage fees, obsolescence
costs and inventory carrying costs.
Forward-looking companies use sales and operations planning (S&OP) tools and
processes to coordinate their internal supply, demand, operational, and financial plans.
Such companies are therefore able to handle variations in supply and demand better and
are able to ensure that operational solutions support financial targets.

before, thanks largely to the internet. As their knowledge grows, so do their demands,
straining companies' resources to keep them satisfied. Reena Jana at BusinessWeek
(2009) stated that companies that apply best practices:
Capitalize on all channels of contact to capture insight into changing
customer service needs. Gathering such information from a broader array
of sources enables these companies to uncover customer trends faster,
identify problems early on before they become major issues and deliver
the kinds of products and services that keep customers satisfied.
Market leading companies also update their websites constantly to provide the latest
information for customers and keep them engaged (BusinessWeek, 2009).
7. Invoice and Service Customers - This is the process of billing for goods and
services rendered and providing after-sales support and problem resolution to retain
customers and build loyalty (PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2009). Even in today's technology
driven business world, many organizations are burdened with cumbersome billing
systems (Healthcare Financial Management, 2009). The cutting edge companies invest in
robust, centralized technology systems that facilitate billing processes that are efficient,
transparent, and consistent.
Due to the global economic downturn of 2008/2009, companies are scrambling
for competitive advantages. This now includes their own unique billing processes. Alok
Ajmera at Businessfinancemag.com (2008) noted that the best practices companies
leverage billing and invoice data to gain strategic business advantage. By leveraging the
billing processes, companies can:
Modify their sales techniques
Improve forecasting
Maintain a more consistent and reliable stream of revenue

Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
Global mindset - The term "global mindset" is becoming widely used in business
today. Companies with a strong global mindset, which refers to the ability to accept
differences and work well with cultural diversity, tend to be adept at managing and
developing cultural diversity effectively and utilizing the depth and breadth of their
global workforce to perform at their full potential in worldwide markets
(Strategy+Business, 2009). William J. Holstein at Strategy+Business (2009) noted,
companies that apply best practices are coming to the realization that it is important to
have a CEO and upper-level executives with a deep understanding of the customs in
developing countries and to place executives from around the world in vital corporate
positions to guide a global company.

Colgate's CEO is from the U.K., eight of its top nine operating executives are from
outside the U.S. and more than half of its 200 senior managers are from non-U.S.
countries (Strategy+Business, 2009).
Strategy alone, however, does not guarantee success. Therefore, ongoing leadership
support and commitment to information resources management are needed when
employees resist new ways of managing and sharing information. Data and information

management initiatives more often meet with success when respected company leaders
endorse them and visibly participate in supporting them (Baseline, 2008).
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. is leveraging their digital technology to improve employee
benefits. The company launched a digital medical records program enabling files from
pharmacies, participating insurers, and other parties to be downloaded into the company's
database and utilized as a one-stop site for employees to access their medical records
(BusinessWeek, 2008). Wal-Mart anticipates that its employees, armed with their readily
accessible medical information, will receive better healthcare.
10. Manage Financial and Physical Resources - This is defined as the process of
protecting resources and systems fundamental to the viability of the business
(PricewaterhouseCoopers, 2009). The efficiency of the accounting and finance functions
and the role they play in business strategy are increasing, especially during times of
economic uncertainty. Companies that apply best practices are establishing the finance
function as a strategic partner, focusing less on traditional accounting and transactional
activities and more on being a strategic ally (CFO.com, 2009). The finance department
within any company has the unique opportunity to understand and control:
Expenses efficiencies
Capital management
Overall company operations

Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
The finance function, with its in-depth analysis and insights, can determine which parts
of the business, customer groups, and product bases are profitable. A good finance
department is one that is proactive in assessing inherent risks in improvement initiatives
and providing guidance on driving cost efficiencies. Overall, this department adds value
by helping leadership understand and manage the business effectively (CFO.com, 2009).
11. Manage Environmental, Health and Safety Issues - This is defined as the
process of fostering top-down, proactive EHS awareness and management to improve
performance and achieve goodwill among key stakeholders (PricewaterhouseCoopers,
2009). Increasingly, more companies are trying to lighten their carbon footprint by
becoming more waste efficient. Companies that apply best practices minimize the
environmental impacts of goods and services through "zero waste" initiatives by
scrutinizing ways to curtail resource consumption and eliminate process inefficiency and
waste (IndustryWeek, 2008).
General Motors Corporation's manufacturing facilities currently fall into the zero-
waste category, recycling or reusing all of their production waste. The automaker
projected annual revenue from selling the recycled metal scraps to approximate $1 billion
USD (IndustryWeek, 2008). As forward-looking companies examine ways to cut costs
associated with waste handling and disposal, they often uncover new revenue streams in
the process. For instance, instead of allowing methane by-products to escape into the
atmosphere, some best practices companies capture the gas and sell it or use it to fuel
other activities, said Jill Jusko at IndustryWeek (2008). Companies realize they can
increase capital and maintain customer relationships by being a steward of the
environment. Key stakeholders, such as investors, regulators and consumers, hold
companies accountable for the impact their products have on the environment.
Growing concern over climate change and dwindling supplies of energy, water,
and other natural resources increase the need for companies to create environmentally
friendly products and services, Kerry Capell at BusinessWeek (2008) argued. However,
the challenge is that consumers are generally unwilling to pay more for the benefits these
offerings bring. Business solutions that minimize production or transportation costs,
reduce water usage, or increase efficiency are all value added.

Change Management: Process Classification Framework and Best Practices
Leading companies understand that while financial results are crucial, so too are the more
subtle, interlinked factors that affect corporate viability such as customer and employee
satisfaction, brand awareness, innovation, and process quality (Business Performance
Management, 2009). Today’s leading companies use dashboards and a "trust index" to
monitor targeted performance measures that support their strategy, vision and goals.
Business Performance Management (2009) noted that:
Areas of concern and areas of higher-than-expected performance are
quickly communicated to the staff. Staffs are empowered to resolve
customer issues and they are encouraged to voice their concerns and
collaborate with each other on solutions.
Such best practices improve corporate performance, resulting in higher profits and a
greater culture of collaboration.
Toyota Motor Corporation, the auto manufacturer headquartered in Toyota, Japan,
faces the same adverse economic pressures as its competitors. Yet the company's
continuous improvement philosophy remains intact, with plans to retain workers and use
their idle time for training and skills development, noted Ralph Keller at IndustryWeek
(2009). Toyota takes the "continuous" aspect seriously and maintains an environment of
knowledge. While it will cost the company more in the short-term, over the long haul
Toyota will be stronger and will avoid the cost of hiring and training new employees
later.
