The Internal Business Process Perspective: IKEA

Consider the organization's mission and strategy from the perspective of its internal business processes, In this section of the assignment you'll begin to identify objectives and measures relevant to that perspective.

Once you're reasonably clear on what's involved, think about your organization and its business processes, and then:

Identify at least three objectives for improving the organization's internal business processes, and show how they relate to the mission, vision and strategy of the organization.

• For each objective, develop at least one meaningful performance measure (metric).

• For each objective, identify at least one expected level of performance (target).

• For each objective, identify at least one new action or program that needs to be developed to ensure successful implementation of the organization's strategy (initiative).

• Comment briefly on the relationships of the process objectives that you've identified here to the finance objectives that you identified in the Mod I assignment and/or the customer service objectives that you identified in the Mod II assignment. How do they help to fulfill those objectives? If they don't (and they don't have to), what makes them more important than objectives that would relate to finance or customer service?

• Finally, do you wish to make any changes to your Mod I or Mod II objective write-ups in light of your Module 3 experience?

Here's a table that you may wish to copy and fill in (the boxes are expandable - take all the space you need to be complete in your descriptions. No more than 2-3 pages should be necessary.)

Objective	Measure	Target	Action

Revisions (if any) to Mod I and/or Mod II Objectives
