Information Technology plays a pivotal role in BPR by providing the tools and systems necessary to enable new kinds of working practices, helping organizations to fundamentally change how they operate.

BPR is the radical redesign of business processes to achieve dramatic improvements in critical aspects like quality, output, cost, service, and speed. It involves starting from scratch and rethinking existing processes to deliver more value to the customer.

The step involves identifying the processes that are most critical to the business's goals. This selection will dictate which processes should be redesigned for maximum impact on efficiency and effectiveness.

This step requires a detailed understanding and documentation of the existing processes. It includes outlining the steps, inputs, outputs, and flows of processes which can then be analyzed for inefficiencies.

After implementing BPR, it's important to continuously monitor the results and seek ways to improve. This ensures that the process remains efficient and can adapt to future changes.

Analyzing the current process to identify bottlenecks, redundancies, and inefficiencies. This step also includes the actual redesign of the process to eliminate waste and improve performance.

Involving employees in the BPR effort ensures their buy-in and helps to harness their knowledge and expertise for process redesign. This also helps in minimizing resistance to change.

Comparing an organization's processes to those of industry leaders or competitors to gauge performance and to generate ideas for improvement.

Integrating new and existing information technologies to support the redesigned processes. Proper IT integration is crucial for ensuring that the reengineered processes are efficient and effective.
