Let workers perform as many steps as possible for single cases
Determine whether activities are related to the same type of case and, if necessary, distinguish new business processes
Form cross-department teams for end-to-end case handling.
If capacity is insufficient, consider increasing the available number of resources
Consider whether activities may be executed in parallel
Start implementing actions that can offset or counterbalance the environmental effects generated by business processes that cannot be changed.
Consider whether it is eco-friendly to let humans work over machines
