Abstract :
During the last century, humankind has advanced at an incredible rate, and, while many are focusing on profits and efficiency, the natural environment has suffered. The senior management of many companies have begun to take an interest in reducing the impact to the environment and have begun changing their business processes. While reassessing operations makes sense, finding a starting place has been difficult. We propose a new method of prioritizing process changes using a synthesis of business process reengineering, TQM, and value chain analysis. We call this framework green reengineering
