Process mapping tool features
The Agility System process mapping tool helps map processes more quickly and therefore more cost-effectively. It has multiple features and benefits, including, encouraging collaboration with team members to engage in process improvement and simplifying complex procedures to increase understanding.
Swim lane process maps
The Agility System process maps are produced using swim lane diagrams. This technique lays out the process in a vertical (rather than horizontal) format.
A swim lane process map creates a visual structure for both process workflow and the people, places, and things that interact with them. What used to be hidden in obscure procedures is revealed more comprehensively in a swim lane process mapping session.

- Creates resilient processes
- Helps achieve strategic objectives
- Minimises disruptions and losses
