#workflow modeling

A workflow model is a visual map of every step in a repeatable process. Running parallel tasks instead of sequential ones can cut cycle times by 30 to 40 percent, as Tallyfy data from hundreds of implementations shows.

A workflow diagram maps your business process visually using standardized symbols traced back to engineers Henry Gantt and Frederick Taylor. Four main types serve different purposes: flowcharts, BPMN, swimlane, and SIPOC diagrams.
