In the context of enterprise digitalization, Performance Support is the process that allows companies to maximize their workforce activity by providing users with prompt access to information needed to execute their assigned tasks. This activity aims to make training materials relating to software and business processes available to users in real time.
In other words, when a business production task is dependent on the use of business process analysis software, the Performance Support process represents a “GPS” for your workforce.
