Here is an example of how the APQC Upstream Process Classification Framework for Human Resources can be utilized to help with chalking out the various business processes within the Human Resources division of an Oil & Gas company.
Note: APQC stands for American Petroleum Quality Council, which is an independent organization that provides such helpful standards and guidelines. Most of the Oil & Gas companies in North America (including Calgary) use the APQC standards to help build their business processes. Thus utilizing these standards for chalking out Human Resources business processes helps in making the HR division compliant and in-sync with the rest of the company process mapping. This allows for better standardization, streamlining as well as easier identification of process gaps.
Such data on other verticals are available from other relevant organizations.
