In the era of rapid digital transformation, effective work procedures have become the cornerstone of success in various sectors, especially in the ambitious Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which adopts Vision 2030 as a roadmap towards digital excellence.
Learn how work procedures contribute to the success of digital transformation in Saudi Arabia? And how can it be applied to achieve digital excellence. In light of the Saudi Vision 2030, digital transformation has become a strategic necessity that government and private entities seek to achieve to enhance operational efficiency and improve the beneficiary experience.
The work procedures standard is one of the main axes in the Digital Transformation Measurement Index issued by the Digital Government Authority, which aims to improve and document operations within institutions and achieve digital integration through automation and re-engineering of procedures.
The concept of the work procedures standard in digital transformation
The work procedures standard in digital transformation, one of the main axes in the Digital Transformation Measurement Index, refers to a set of processes and activities that are carried out within the government or private entity, which require accurate documentation and continuous improvement to ensure that they are implemented in the best possible ways. This standard includes several stages, including:
- Listing and documenting work procedures: identifying existing processes and procedures and classifying them according to their importance and method of implementation.
- Analyzing and improving operations: looking for weaknesses and duplication in operations and working to improve them to achieve the highest possible efficiency.
- Automating operations: employing modern technologies to transform traditional operations into fully digital ones, which reduces errors and increases productivity.
- Performance measurement and continuous follow-up: setting key performance indicators (KPIs) to monitor the effectiveness of operations and updating procedures according to actual results.
The importance of the work procedures standard in measuring digital transformation
The work procedures standard in digital transformation is considered one of the most important standards for measuring digital transformation, as it directly affects the efficiency of institutions in providing digital services and improving operational performance. Among the most prominent benefits achieved by this standard are:
- Raising the level of operational efficiency: reducing operational errors and speeding up the implementation of operations by improving the workflow.
- Enhancing transparency and accountability: documenting operations and clarifying responsibilities for each procedure, which contributes to reducing administrative corruption.
- Achieving beneficiary satisfaction: improving the user experience by providing faster and easier services.
- Reducing operating costs: reducing reliance on paper transactions and manual operations that consume additional time and effort.
- Achieving regulatory compliance: ensuring that procedures comply with the regulations and organizational policies issued by the competent authorities.
The basic requirements for achieving the work procedures standard
According to the Digital Transformation Measurement Index and according to the regulatory documents issued by the Digital Government Authority, government and private institutions must follow a set of steps to ensure compliance with the work procedures standard. These steps include:
- Listing all work operations and procedures
Institutions must conduct a comprehensive survey of all operations and procedures that are carried out within them and classify them according to several criteria, such as:
- Type of procedure (main, supporting, administrative).
- The department or section responsible for the procedure.
- The degree of automation (manual procedure, partially automated, fully automated).
- The importance of the procedure and its impact on institutional performance.
- Documenting procedures and measuring performance
After listing the procedures, they are documented within identification cards that include basic information about each operation, such as:
- The name of the procedure and its unique code.
- A brief description of the procedure and its implementation mechanism.
- The flow chart (BPMN) to clarify the course of the procedure and the various responsibilities.
- Key performance indicators (KPIs) to track the efficiency of implementation.
- Re-engineering operations to improve efficiency
Digital transformation requires the redesign of procedures to ensure the highest level of efficiency, by:
- Analyzing the procedures to identify opportunities for improvement and reduce complexity.
- Reducing unnecessary steps to achieve faster and less costly implementation.
- Using data analysis methods and modern technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data analysis to improve decision-making.
- Automating operations and procedures
Automation is one of the most important elements of the work procedures standard, as manual operations are converted into fully digital operations using:
- RPA (Robotic Process Automation) systems to perform repetitive tasks automatically.
- Low-Code/No-Code technologies to develop applications that support automation without the need for complex programming.
- Enterprise resource planning (ERP) platforms that allow data integration and unify procedures across different departments.
- Measuring performance and continuously improving it
After implementing automation and improvement operations, key performance indicators (KPIs) are set to track performance and measure the actual impact of digital transformation. Periodic reports are also issued that show the extent of the success of automation and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
