Course content

Requirements

  • A foundational understanding of basic organizational structures and common business functions (e.g., Sales, Operations, Finance, or Customer Support).
  • No prior programming or advanced technical engineering background is required; all workflow mapping, diagnostic tools, and automation frameworks are explained from core principles.
  • An open mindset ready to challenge legacy assumptions, traditional departmental silos, and standard operating habits.

Description

“This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

Are your organization’s core operations bogged down by slow approvals, bureaucratic bottlenecks, redundant hand-offs, and endless operational waste?

Most businesses attempt to solve operational drag with minor adjustments or by digitizing existing chaos—simply automating bad processes. Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) takes the opposite approach: clean-slate, first-principles redesign aimed at achieving dramatic, quantum-leap improvements in performance, speed, cost, and customer value.

Led by Author Himani Vashistha, founder of Vidya Retreat, this masterclass provides a complete, structured roadmap to auditing, deconstructing, and re-architecting broken workflows. Bridging executive business strategy with practical execution, this course covers every dimension of operational turnaround: value stream mapping, the 8 forms of organizational waste (DOWNTIME), intelligent automation (RPA & AI), root-cause analysis, and change leadership.

Whether you manage an enterprise division, run a growing business, or consult on digital transformation, this course equips you with actionable toolkits, analytical frameworks, and practical blueprints to eliminate non-value-adding work permanently.

Upon successful completion of the course requirements, you will be eligible to receive a verifiable Certificate of Accreditation issued by Vidya Retreat, validating your mastery in modern process re-engineering and waste elimination.

What You Will Learn (Key Takeaways)

  • Identify and Eradicate Hidden Waste: Systematically locate and eliminate the 8 forms of operational waste (DOWNTIME) across administrative, digital, and frontline environments.

  • Master Clean-Slate Process Redesign: Move beyond basic incremental improvements to design high-velocity, customer-centric workflows from the ground up.

  • Map and Diagnose Complex Streams: Build end-to-end Value Stream Maps (VSM) and cross-functional swimlane diagrams to pinpoint hand-off delays and bottlenecks.

  • Deploy Modern Enablers Safely: Leverage RPA, process mining, modern cloud ERPs, and AI decision gateways without inheriting technical debt.

  • Lead Human-Centered Transformation: Overcome organizational resistance, dismantle departmental silos, and reskill teams to thrive in streamlined environments.

  • Lock in Gains with Long-Term Governance: Integrate BPR with Lean Six Sigma, real-time KPI dashboards, and post-implementation audit frameworks to prevent operational drift.

Who this course is for:

  • Operations Managers, Directors, and COOs seeking to dramatically cut cycle times, reduce operational costs, and boost overall throughput.
  • Management Consultants and Business Analysts tasked with diagnosing client workflows, designing operating models, and presenting high-ROI business cases.
  • Continuous Improvement, Lean, and Six Sigma Practitioners looking to complement incremental Kaizen methods with radical, clean-slate re-engineering frameworks.
  • Business Owners and Entrepreneurs aiming to scale operational capacity without linearly inflating headcount or administrative overhead.
  • Digital Transformation and IT Leaders responsible for aligning enterprise software implementations (ERP, CRM, RPA) with re-engineered workflows.
