Building and Implementing Cross-Functional Processes (XFPs)

  • In a significant portion of organizations, processes that are essentially cross-functional are hard to define and challenging to implement
  • A common example of a cross-functional process is PLM (Product Lifecycle Management)
  • PLM definition and implementation must be carried out by an interdisciplinary team representing the critical organizational entities in the organization
  • Work begins only after defining the project content and carefully aligning expectations with management
  • The team meets regularly and is guided by me. The team also builds the implementation plan and monitors its actual execution
  • The process outputs are presented subject to a unique 3-layer methodology
