Maps draw a picture that allows the reader to ‘visualize’ the

process flow. “A picture is worth a thousand words”

These Process ‘pictures’ allow the reader to see the process

inputs and outputs as well as links to other processes.

By ‘linking’ all the process maps together, we can verify that

all the individual processes flow appropriately and that

references from one Map to another make sense.

This makes its easier for auditors as well!
