Notes:
Surveys show that the results of top-down oriented Business Process Reengineering projects often are to be questioned because of implementation problems due to internal resistance to change. Bottom-up oriented Continuous Improvement projects on the other hand experience typically a lack of strategic orientation and do not necessarily improve the enterprise process system as a whole. The MOTION (MOdel for Transforming, Identifying and OptimiziNg core processes) approach developed in a European Union project provides a method to combine the strengths of the top-down approach of business process reengineering with the advantages of the bottom-up oriented continuous improvement process to create well balanced processes to meet customer requirements. The MOTION guidelines were developed by a consortium of European industrial companies and universities.
