What is business process?

”

A business process or business method is a collection of related, structured activities or tasks that produce a specific service or product (serve a particular goal) for a particular customer or customers. It often can be visualized with a flowchart as a sequence of activities with interleaving decision points or with a Process Matrix as a sequence of activities with relevance rules based on the data in the process”.

("Business Process"; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_process ;11 sept 2012)

”A structured, measured set of activities designed to produce a specific output for a particular customer or market. It implies a strong emphasis on how work is done within an organization, in contrast to a product focus’s emphasis on what. A process is thus a specific ordering of work activities across time and space, with a beginning and an end, and clearly defined inputs and outputs: a structure for action. ... Taking a process approach implies adopting the customer’s point of view. Processes are the structure by which an organization does what is necessary to produce value for its customers.” 

( Davenport; "Defines a (Business) Process"; 1993; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_process ;11 sept 2012).

What is the purpose of this process?

”The purpose is to streamline business processes, streamline the business and make it easy to adapt the processes therein. This means that business process should be a process-oriented business on the number and quality of product output, minimal use of resources and can be adapted according to the needs of business and markets.”

(Zuhdi, Ahmad;"Pengertian Proses bisnis"; 22 March 2010; http://blog.trisakti.ac.id/informazi/2010/03/22/pengertian-proses-bisnis; 11 sept 2012)

Jadi secara umum dapat didefinisikan sebagai kumpulan dari proses yang mendukung proses-proses operasional dalam perusahaan. Proses bisnis berisi kumpulan aktifitas yang saling berelasi satu sama lain untuk menghasilkan suatu keluaran yang mendukung pada tujuan dan sasaran strategis dari organisasi.


Banyak yang menganggap Proses suatu bisnis sulit pada pemodalan, "ITU TIDAK BENAR". Modal sebenarnya mudah di cari bila kita mempunyai jaringan bisnis (business network) yang cukup luas dan kepercayaan dari mereka. Dengan adanya jaringan yang luas dan kepercayaan, mereka akan dengan mudah meminjamkan modal untuk kita melakukan sebuah bisnis.


Jelaslah, bahwa yang sulit itu bukanlah modal tetapi sebuah network (jaringan bisnis). Jaringan bisnis bisa bermacam-macam, mulai dari teman, sahabat, tetangga, kenalan jauh atau bahkan mungkin keluarga kita sendiri. Modal utama dalam mencari sebuah network adalah 'Lidah'. Kenapa lidah?


Bukan karena saya cadel lalu saya membahas tentang lidah (RRRRR). Lidah berfungsi sebagai penghubung kita sebagai (pembuat sebuah bisnis) dengan para 'calon' network kita (sebut aja calon pemodal awal). Semakin kita dekat dengan para calon pemodal awal kita, maka mereka tidak tanggung-tanggung dalam memberikan sebuah bantuan modal yang cukup besar kepada kita sehingga bisnis kita menjadi besar.


So, let's take advantage of our tongue. Do not be a drawback for the business man.
