Routine

In the customer-driven perspective of USM, a process - and therefore a routine - always starts and ends with the customer. USM identifies three types of routines:
  • A workflow specifies only the logical sequence of process blocks with their process steps, activities, and actions.
  • A procedure specifies the workflow with the process blocks and their process steps, activities, and actions, and their operators.
  • A work instruction specifies the workflow with the process blocks and their process steps, activities, and actions, the operators and the technical instructions for these operators.
