Before any objective will be set into place, businesses take time in understanding exactly what their company is moving towards, what it does, who will be the responsible people and to what level the goals can be met and how successes are established. With the aid of business illustrations, the teams responsible in developing business systems and methods can easily put together all ideas using business process mapping methods. This implies a process approach to follow and analyze whether these processes will be effective or not and if it's likely to be effective over time. Therefore, organizations become more efficient as they can already see clearly what to consider and whether or not enhancements can be done in their recent processes.

Business process mapping produce workflows where based on a software that's been employed by the company, produces automated workflows quickly. This lessens the time of using pen and paper and rewriting all over again especially during brainstorming. With the use of automated processes such as graphical representations on a computer, it makes creating, editing and publishing much faster. To illustrate, one of the utilized workflows nowadays that's also incorporated with SharePoint 2010 is the e5 Workflow Designer in the e5 Studio. This incorporates graphical designer along with the drag and drop approach to utilize the different elements included.

Company objective representations come in graphical dashboards that offer real-time visibility of workload, compliance with SLAs and productivity. This permits organizations to exactly specify a process and who takes responsibility on numerous departments including what steps to perform and what standards of completion are needed. This makes success defined in a seamless setting.

With a workflow illustration like process mapping, this visually represents all activities including managing of exclusions in the company. The e5 Studio for instance involves no up-front process analysis anymore but instead create "as is" process maps for every classification of work. This implies tasks and fields that are modified through simple drag and drop. Now depending on the complexity of the processes being designed, the activity takes from hours to days to complete. However, this is still a big difference when compared with weeks to months of processes from conventional strategies. The "as is" process is then likely to create baseline of metrics in the business workflow throughout the production. During production, process analysis is carried out on an ongoing basis depending on the metrics the software has provided.

Lastly, the business analysts can re-engineer the process by making adjustments to the workflow in the cloud while still able to determine the results producing an iterative process by ultimately identifying, supplying and executing business processes.
