FAQs

Fit gap analysis (also called fit to standard) is a thorough investigation of business processes as they relate to the ideal end state. In other words, fit gap analysis and gap analysis toolshelp you determine where you are, where you want to go, and, finally, how to get there. You’re looking for what fits into the overall plan, and what gaps need to be filled to reach your target.

Another way to think about fit gap analysis is through the lens of “fit-to-standard.” In this case, “standard” means the industry standard—the acceptable benchmark under normal circumstances. If you think of the standard as “where you want to go,” you don’t have to reinvent the wheel when trying to fill gaps. Instead, you can use the standard as your goal and work your way there.

SAP (System Analysis Program Development) is a cloud-based software that centralizes data management. Within SAP, fit gap analysis takes on a slightly different meaning.

If you use SAP, you can initiate a fit gap analysis workshop directly within the program. This process allows you to take a holistic look at your business practices or drill down on a particular area and locate gaps.

Fit gap analyses can come in handy in several cases. For example, you might use a fit to standard analysis if:

-You’re looking to upgrade or update an existing process.

-You recently acquired a business and want to know more about their processes.

-Customers have been reporting shortcomings.

These analyses are incredibly useful, but they can also be time-consuming to generate. To cut down on planning time and maximize doing time, start with a fit gap analysis example from FigJam and make it your own. With infinitely customizable graphic options and communication functions that include chat, audio, and emotes, FigJam allows you and your team to locate even the smallest gaps—from anywhere in the world.
