Abstract:This research is focussed on optimizing the advising process for battery energy storage solutions at Stroom Door Zon B.V., aiming to reduce man-hours while maintaining advice quality. Applying the business process management lifecycle, the study seeks to cut process time by 25%, from 12 to 9 hours. The advising process is identified as a core function, necessitating efficiency improvements without negatively impacting related processes. An as-is process model was developed and analysed based on interviews and observations, revealing key inefficiencies: a heavy reliance on employee expertise and a limited amount of structured information. The proposed to-be process model enhances efficiency through three key improvements: automating documentation collection, implementing a structured information system, and introducing time limits for key interactions. These changes are expected to reduce process time by 37.5% (from 12 to 7.5 hours) while improving scalability and customer value. The research is concluded with recommendations and an implementation plan to complete process optimalization.
