What is the Cross-Functional Process Re-engineering course about?
Even well-designed programs fail when policy, operations, and technology teams work in isolation. Legacy processes slow deployment, increase compliance risk, and reduce public trust. Without a unified framework, cross-agency collaboration remains reactive rather than strategic.
