Process optimization is a research area that focuses on improving the efficiency, productivity, and effectiveness of various processes within organizations. This can include manufacturing processes, business operations, supply chain management, and other systems that rely on repetitive tasks or workflows. Researchers in this field use mathematical modeling, statistical analysis, and other optimization techniques to identify bottlenecks, streamline workflows, reduce waste, and enhance overall performance. The goal of process optimization is to achieve the best possible outcomes with the resources available, leading to cost savings, increased quality, and higher customer satisfaction.
