Process Flow Chart

A Process Flow Chart is a type of flowchart which is mostly used in industrial, chemical and process engineering for illustrating high-level processes, major plant processes and not shows minor details. ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with Flowcharts Solution from the "Diagrams" Area of ConceptDraw Solution Park is the best way to create Process Flow Chart and other types of flowcharts.

Cross-Functional Flowchart

Use of Cross-Functional Flowchart is a clear way of showing each team member’s responsibilities and how processes get shared or transferred between different responsible people, teams and departments. Use the best flowchart maker ConceptDraw PRO with a range of standardized cross-functional flowchart symbols to create the Cross-Functional Flowcharts simply and to visualize the relationship between a business process and the functional units responsible for that process. To draw the most quickly Cross-Functional Flowcharts, Cross Functional Process Maps, or Cross Functional Process Flow Diagrams, start with a Cross-functional flowchart samples and templates from ConceptDraw Solution Park. The ConceptDraw Arrows10 and RapidDraw technologies will be also useful for you in drawing. ConceptDraw PRO supports designing both types - horizontal and vertical Cross-functional flowcharts. A vertical layout makes the accents mainly on the functional units while a horizontal layout - on the process. If you need a Visio alternative in Mac OS X, try ConceptDraw PRO. Its interface is very intuitive and it’s actually much easier to use than Visio, yet somehow it’s just as powerful if not more so. ConceptDraw PRO performs professional quality work and seamless Visio interaction.

Value stream with ConceptDraw PRO

The Value stream is a totality of all actions on the projection, order composition and production: starting from creation a product project to launching this product, from order to delivery, from extraction of raw materials to ready product manufacturing. Value stream mapping is a process of visualization of these actions and creation of a detailed and graphical map.

Value Stream & Process Flow Diagramming Software

Value Stream & Process Flow Diagramming Software is a very popular Lean Manufacturing tool that allows to see and visualize in details the company's processes and current state, the flow of material and information, and thus gives the possibility to analyze the efficiency of company's processes and then develop improved processes. Value stream maps are also a good way to define the steps that do not add value to the end product, in other words waste in a company's processes.

Value Stream Mapping for the Lean Office

Value Stream Mapping for the lean office is a tool that uses a flow diagram to document in great detail every step of a manufacturing process.

Total Quality Management

The desire to encourage the production of competitive goods led to the establishment of new method of continuous quality improvement of all organizational processes, production and service. This method successfully launched in Japan and the USA was named Total Quality Management (TQM). Now, the TQM is a dynamically developed concept, a strategic approach to management that is based on manufacturing goods or services of the best quality among innovative counterparts from the point of view of consumers. The main idea of TQM is that the company should work not only on the product quality, but also on the quality of company's work, including the work of staff. The constant parallel improvement of product quality, quality of organization processes, level of qualification the personnel allow to achieve more rapid and effective business development. Mind Maps are effective in a field of quality management and allow to structure all key quality points on one page. This Mind Map designed in ConceptDraw MINDMAP software illustrates the well-known Total Quality Management (TQM) methodology.

Piping and Instrumentation Diagram Software

Piping and Instrumentation Diagram is a technical sketch or drawing, which shows in details the piping system and instrumentation of a processing plant. Piping and Instrumentation Diagram is developed by process design engineers and technical engineers on the phase of plant design. This plan is necessary on the stages of plant construction and then is actively used by operators, instrumentation and piping engineers when operating the plant. ConceptDraw PRO software provides unique Plumbing and Piping Plans solution from Building Plans area of ConceptDraw Solution Park with 10 libraries of ready-to-use predesigned vector elements, templates and samples, to help you create professional Piping diagrams and schematics, Instrumentation diagrams, Plumbing plans and blueprints, Schemes of hot and cold water supply systems, Heating schemes, Mechanical diagrams, Diagrams of fluids, hydraulics, air and gas pipings, Technical drawings of waste water disposal systems, Schematics of industrial piping systems, Diagrams of ventilation systems, etc.

Learn how to create a current state value stream map

Value Stream Mapping solution extends ConceptDraw PRO software with templates, samples and vector shapes for drawing the current state value stream maps.

Building Drawing Design Element: Piping Plan

When you are going to build a house or to make repairs of new built home, apartment, office, shop, or to renovate any other premises, in many cases you will need to make the package of drawings, plans and documents, including the such important plans as the Overall floor plan, Interior design plan, Ceiling plan, Electrical system plan, and of course the Plumbing plan, Water supply system plan, and Piping Plan. When choosing between the modern software for building construction, planning and design, we recommend you to select the multifunctional building plan software ConceptDraw PRO enhanced with Plumbing and Piping Plans solution from the Building Plans area of ConceptDraw Solution Park. This solution provides large variety of examples, samples, quick-start templates and libraries of pipes, plumbing and valves vector design elements for design and construction the Plumbing and Piping Plans, schematics and annotated diagrams for hot and cold water supply systems, water lines and waste water disposal systems.

Business Processes

The most worked out and commonly used methodology of business processes description is IDEF methodology. Besides business processes it allows to describe functional blocks, for example production and marketing. ConceptDraw lets creation of business processes description using IDEF0 and IDEF2 methods.

Building Drawing Design Element: Plumbing

Any repair or replanning usually requires a work with engineering communications and sanitary equipment. This can be the new system's construction or the dismantling of old pipes and plumbing, and then installation the new ones. The reliability of plumbing system depends on many factors, but in any case, a prerequisite is careful planning, competent and qualified project's development, design of necessary Plumbing diagrams, creation the plan of plumbing works, high-quality laying of pipes and correct installation of engineering communications, plumbing and sanitary equipment according to the developed schemes. The key point at the development schemes and plans is the necessity to clearly think over all required plumbing equipment, to choose the types of pipes, a way of montage and to count their quantity. ConceptDraw PRO software extended with Plumbing and Piping Plans solution is the ease way to create professional-looking Plumbing plans, Piping plans, Water supply system plans, Plumbing system layout plans, thanks to the included plumbing and piping vector design elements.

Cross-functional flowchart landscape, U.S. units

In Cross-Functional Flowchart first step is to determine how many lanes you want to represent and what the lane titles will be. The choice of vertical or horizontal swim lanes landscape comes down to personal choice or just plain “what fits best”. With ConceptDraw, we make that simple by including different swim lanes templates. Professional looking examples and templates of Swimlane Flowchart which help you create Cross Functional Flowcharts rapidly.
