In this episode, we’re diving into the fascinating world of business processes in IT and scientific analysis. We’ll unpack how to optimize these processes, avoid common pitfalls, and ensure they align with your broader business goals.

We’re joined by two exceptional experts who bring deep experience and practical insight to the conversation: Trisha St-Fleur, Associate Director of Consulting at Astrix, and Meghan Bowman, Senior Product Manager at Semaphore Solutions.

Trisha is a seasoned IT and scientific business analyst with years of consulting experience. She’s worked with a variety of clients, each with unique challenges and goals, giving her a broad perspective on process optimization.

Meghan Bowman brings a wealth of expertise in business process modeling and optimization. From leading LIMS customer delivery projects, to mapping and improving end-to-end commercial processes as an operations leader, to driving workflow-centric product development at Labbit, she consistently translates complex operations into scalable, customer-ready solutions.

Together, Trisha and Meghan will share their insights, lessons learned, and practical strategies to help you strengthen your own business processes.

In this episode they will focus on three key areas:

  1. The role of business processes in IT implementations.
  2. Business process modeling and optimization: what it is and why it matters.
  3. Practical applications and lessons learned from real-world examples.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have actionable insights to evaluate and improve your own processes. We hope you enjoy the conversation.
