Danfoss Power Electronics Wins Award for Workflow Excellence
May 10, 2012
Danfoss Power Electronics, a global provider of VLT Drives and Panels, announced today that the company has been named the Silver Winner for the 2011 Global Awards for Excellence in Business Process Management and Workflow.
This prestigious award has been granted to industrial organizations since 1996, in recognition of their ground-breaking solutions leading to significant business benefits. The Awards Program is managed by Future Strategies Inc. and sponsored by BPM.com, Object Management Group and Workflow Management Coalition.
Danfoss Power Electronics received the award in the competitive North American region. The judges recognized the company’s skilled management of interdisciplinary competencies with basic technology applications in order to springboard a process management program. As a result of the BPM project the company significantly reduced workload in several areas; for one, the master data on shipping information, price points, discounts and other variables is now far more accurate and no longer needs to be manually checked and entered, resulting in a 25 – 35% improvement in productivity for customer service personnel. The company also introduced a new, team-oriented culture aligned with the organization’s value stream and developed a competency toolbox for process management.
This project was a result of an industrial research program between the two entities, aimed at solving business problems while advancing theoretical knowledge in the BPM area. Danfoss was nominated for the award by its research partner, Center for Industrial Production, Aalborg University, Denmark.
