Manufacturing Business Process Assessment

Why a Business Process Assessment?

Well, how much “waste” is at your company?

You’ve built great products. But behind the scenes, how efficient are your teams? How much time is lost to duplicate work, status meetings, or hunting for documents?

KETIV’s Business Process Assessment (BPA) is your first step toward real efficiency. In just a couple of short interviews, we’ll help you uncover hidden bottlenecks, quantify the impact of inefficiencies, and build a data-backed plan to improve performance—without adding headcount.

Schedule Your Assessment

The average “knowledge worker” spends 50% time performing product-related processes, 70% of which is non-value-added activity.*

* Based on Autodesk study.

What We Evaluate

A customized snapshot of your “as-is” process maturity
A targeted roadmap for improvement
ROI estimates to justify the investment
Specific automation and integration opportunities tailored to your business

What You’ll Walk Away With

1. Solution Summary

We capture your key pain points and goals, then outline recommended solutions and a prioritized roadmap.

2. Financial Model

Includes current process costs, solution cost estimates, and all underlying assumptions (labor, overhead, tax).

3. ROI Estimates

See projected savings, payback period, and 3-year ROI in a clear financial summary.

How the Assessment Works

It’s Quick. It’s Actionable. It’s Built for You.

Step 1: Identify Scope

+ Pinpoint which areas of your business to focus on (e.g., quoting, design review, change management).

+ Identify the right participants: Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), stakeholders, and leadership.

Step 2: Interview Participants

+ Understand the current (“as-is”) workflows, tools, and challenges.

+ Capture pain points, inefficiencies, and desired outcomes (“to-be”).

Step 3: Collect Process Metrics

+ Quantify time, cost, and performance for the current state (e.g., how long it takes to process ECOs).

+ Capture data to feed into ROI modeling (e.g., labor rates, overhead, tax assumptions).
