The term "Business Process Reengineering" has, over the past couple of year, gained Increasing circulation. As a result, many find themselves faced with the prospect of having to learn, plan, implement and successfully conduct a real Business Process Reengineering endeavor, whatever that might entail within their own business organization. Hammer and Champy (1993) define business process reengineering (BPR) as:

" the fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of the business processes to achieve dramatic improvements in critical, contemporary measures of performance, such as cost, quality, service and speed "

Why companies apply BPR?  Indeed Business processes are characterized by three elements: the inputs, (data such customer inquiries or materials), the processing of the data or materials (which usually go through several stages and may necessary stops that turns out to be time and money consuming), and the outcome (the delivery of the expected result). The problematic part of the process is processing. Business process reengineering mainly intervenes in the processing part, which is reengineered in order to become less time and money consuming.
