procEnact Strategy-driven process enactment
Strategy, then the process, then the software: five phases that leave SME manufacturers on SAP Business One with a process-governed plant.
◆Exclusive Boyum Practice. India’s No.1 Customer-referred Boyum IT Partner.
Built for SME manufacturers at an inflection point.
The informal way of working that got your plant to its current size will not take it to the next one. Three situations where procEnact helps SME manufacturers on SAP Business One.
☞Which one sounds like your plant?
Processes live in a few people’s heads
- Today
- Core processes exist, but they live in spreadsheets, email chains and the memories of a few key people. Execution varies, and new joiners take too long to become productive.
- What changes
- Processes written down, standardised and governed, so results hold whoever is in the role.
There are goals, but nothing tracks them
- Today
- There are goals, but no systematic way to track progress towards them. Management meetings look back and decisions react.
- What changes
- A Balanced Scorecard that turns strategy into measurable KPIs and gives leadership a view forward.
Growth is outpacing control
- Today
- Headcount, revenue and reach are growing, but operational performance is not keeping pace.
- What changes
- A process-governed, KPI-driven way of working in place of an informal one, able to absorb growth without losing control of quality, cost or the customer experience.

Strategy to institutionalisation. One phase at a time.
Each phase has a clear output and builds on the one before. Each follows a segment of the ViSA wheel, and phases 04 and 05 share Institutionalisation: choose a phase here, or a segment of the wheel above.
Create Strategy
Set out what the plant is trying to achieve, who it serves and how strategy becomes operational priorities, before a single process is drawn.

Steps 01–05. The process before each deployment.
smartStep, Excel to Intelligence, is the BPAS roadmap for SME manufacturers on SAP Business One: a maturity check and eight steps, each paying back before the next. procEnact sets the process on steps 01 to 05, before the software for each step goes in.

Three deliverables. Yours to keep.
At the end of procEnact you hold three written deliverables. Each stands on its own; together they are the architecture of a process-governed plant.
Business Motivation Model and Customer Journey Maps
A written BMM (mission, vision, goals, objectives and the business policies that govern them), validated with the leadership team, with Customer Journey Maps for every key customer segment.
Made in phase 01 ↓ (on this page)As-Is and To-Be process models, benchmarked to APQC PCF®
A library of As-Is models, with To-Be models redesigned against the APQC Process Classification Framework®. They are the specification for everything that follows, and the reference for later improvement work.
Made in phase 02 ↓ (on this page)Balanced Scorecard and process governance
A Balanced Scorecard across financial, customer, process and learning KPIs, with the reporting to track them, plus ADKAR®-based change governance and the process audit schedule that keeps the new way of working from drifting back.
Made in phase 05 ↓ (on this page)In a BPAS gap review you get a short list of what is costing your plant dates and money today, and the order to fix it in.
Between gapScan and toolDeploy. For a reason.
The maturity check that shows where the plant stands, and which gaps are process gaps rather than configuration gaps. Advised before procEnact, not required.
Fixes the process gaps. Its To-Be process models become the specification for the software.
Implements the Boyum Solutions on your existing SAP Business One, against the To-Be models.

Fix the process before you touch the software. Automating a process as it stands today only makes the wrong thing happen faster.
