Why a resource management process
All business processes need capable resources and clearly
the planning, acquisition, maintenance and disposal of these resources would
not be part of demand creation or fulfilment as resources is not an output
of these processes. There is therefore a need for a process that manages the
organization’s resources and so we might as well call this the Resource
management process. One might divide this into the three separate processes
of Human Resource Management , Physical Resource
Management and Financial Resource Management.
Purpose
Specifies, acquires and maintains the
resources required by the business to fulfil the mission and disposes of any
resources that are no longer required
Process Inputs
- Business plan (from Mission Management process)
- Competent and capable resources (from key stage 2 of
this process)
- Demand for physical, human or financial resources (from
other business processes)
Process Key stages
Note: The process flow is kept simple for
illustrative purposes.

Process outputs
- Capable physical resources (to all processes on demand)
- Competent human resources (to all processes on demand)
- Proceeds and receipts from asset disposal (to key stage
2 of this process)
- Head count and Asset register (hyperlink in BMS on
