Among the various process-mapping techniques used, a cross-functional process map(CFPM) is especially valuable. This type of map shows the steps and functional units involved in the completion of a specific process, thereby documenting the "what" and "who". CFPMs provide an in-depth understanding of the interactions among the various functions involved with each process and provide management with a vision of the organization they may never have been able to picture otherwise. 2, record 5, English, - cross%2Dfunctional%20process%20map
