Consider a standardized interface with customers and partners
A standardized interface diminishes the occurrence of mistakes, incomplete applications, or unintelligible information exchanges. This may yield better quality due to less errors and faster processing time
Reijers, H., & Liman Mansar, S. (2005). Best practices in business process redesign: an overview and qualitative evaluation of successful redesign heuristics. Omega, 33(4)
The concept underlying this heuristic suggests that employing a standardized interface can reduce the likelihood of errors, incomplete submissions, unclear communications, and so forth.
The interfacing heuristic can be regarded as a particular interpretation of the integration heuristic.
A standardized interface may result in fewer errors (quality), faster processing (time), and less rework (cost).
