Organizational Changes

Organizational processes are the systematic way a company defines, organizes and implements its operations through the stages of the product life cycle. This can include strategic measures to improve business performance, proprietary models and intellectual property that contribute to an organizations goals and objectives. Process improvement is closely related to life cycle management. At any stage of a companies operations, the analysis of inputs and outputs can be audited, assessed and graded according to a set of performance requirements. Improving productivity, minimizing costs, reducing social costs and environmental emissions form part of the process improvement paradigm. A company continually works towards organizational process improvement to enhance its bottom line.

The organizational change process can be analyzed by breaking down the stages of the product or service life cycle. By identifying each stage and the procedures used, organizations are better able to assess the impact of changes and build models to quantify the effects of the change on the companies organizational processes. Change management seeks to balance the goals and objectives of an organization and align capital and resources to optimize a companies performance.

The embryonic stage of a companies organizational process is the group of activities related to defining and analyzing the initial requirements of the product or service. This scopes and bounds the nature of a companies activities and establishes the companies operational framework. Process improvement at this level seeks to make best use of the companies resources to establish the initial foundation that will constitute the mandate the company operates from.

The development stage of the product life cycle is where the organization of resources in preparation for the implementation of the companies business objectives take place. Selecting, defining and refining production for organizational process improvement can streamline and accelerate the manufacture and distribution of the product and service.

The implementation phase of organizations processes is the integration of the companies core business activities. Streamlining operational efficiency can help accelerate the manufacture or distribution of the product. Strategic initiatives to capitalize on the growth stage of the product life cycle allow a company to build a greater market share.

Sustaining companies operations becomes more critical when the market matures and the product moves into the declining phase of the product life cycle. Organizations processes can shift to costs cutting and greater efficiency to maintain declining margins. At this stage some companies are forced to leave the market in response to changing consumer preferences, tastes or the introduction of new technology or superior product. This is where the greatest potential for change management takes place. Organizational processes adapt according to the changing goals and objectives of the company and market conditions.
