Process compliance tools are database-driven software instruments created to assist in determining if the analyzed process meets certain success criteria. Usually, such software is designed to carry out the major informative functions – to record, systematize and compare information to define its compliance with measurements considered as standards or objectives for process’s success. 

How process compliance tools are used?

Almost any business process can be assessed through comparing it against assumptions, – a set of essential performance criteria indicating success or fail of this process. Such an index is a multi-level description of metrics – constraints on the scope, time, costs, schedule, etc, for the entire process and for its particular elements (step, stages, outputs, etc). Once the project gets controlled along with its workflow, it is continually assessed against the measurements to produce a report for the process’s inspectors and managers to qualify its whole design (or its every specific running) as successful or errorprone.

Specific example of process compliance software is VIP Task Manager and it can be used for the following process-related needs:

• Planning a business process (setting up steps, tasks, objectives, inputs and outputs);
• Sharing business processes with the concerned working team members (assigning tasks to actual performers, controlling their activities in real-time, etc);
• Adjusting business process’s workflow on-the-fly (reporting, filtering, categorizing, prioritizing and explaining tasks);
• Process compliance assessments in terms of its time parameters, budget, outputs, quality, etc;
• Creating business process templates to facilitate work with recurring matters;
