Businesses vary in their activity requirements. Having a generic checklist available of how things are typically done, is still useful to structure thinking. This APQC process framework is shared by the Cape Chamber of Commerce and Industry, as a first small step towards increasing process and performance improvement support for firms and across value chains.

Process and performance improvement, helps organizations adapt to rapidly changing environments, build new and better ways to work, and succeed in a competitive marketplace. With a focus on productivity, knowledge management, benchmarking, and quality improvement initiatives, organisations such as the APQC works with its member organizations to identify best practices; discover effective methods of improvement; broadly disseminate findings; and connect individuals with one another and the knowledge, training, and tools they need to succeed.
 
This APQC Process Classification Framework® (“PCF”) is an open standard developed by APQC, a nonprofit that promotes benchmarking and best practices worldwide. The PCF is intended to facilitate organizational improvement through process management and benchmarking, regardless of industry, size, or geography.
