Definition

A set of interrelated or interacting activities that acts on inputs to produce outputs[1]

Description

Inputs to a process are generally outputs of other processes.

In some processes, some inputs become outputs without any transformation, e.g. a blueprint used in a manufacturing process or a catalyst in a chemical process.

Processess in an organization are generally planned and carries out under controlled conditions to add value.

A process where the confirmity of the resulting output cannot be readily or economically validated is frequently refered to as a "special process". [2]
