HISTORY
The cross-industry Process Classification Framework® was originally envisioned as a taxonomy of business processes and a common
language through which APQC member organizations could benchmark their processes. The initial design involved APQC and more
than 80 organizations with a strong interest in advancing the use of benchmarking in the United States and worldwide. Since its
inception in 1992, the PCF has seen updates to most of its content. These updates keep the framework current with the ways that
organizations do business around the world. In 2014, APQC worked to enhance the cross-industry PCF and updated a number of
industry-specific process classification frameworks.
