In the context of the transformation of the world economy and fierce competition for the buyer due to “natural selection,” enterprises remain functioning, and the architecture of business processes is built efficiently and efficiently. In other words, any socio-economic entity develops sustainably, defends its interests, and is competitive in the market if the benefits exceed the costs of ensuring its business processes. That is, in the end, the activity becomes effective. Therefore, to provide the enterprise with a stable profit and reduce costs, it becomes necessary to implement competent management of business processes, the problem of which remains relevant today. The emergence of the “business process” concept is associated with the development of industrial society and the industrial industry. The development of industrial production contributed to the formation of a chain of technically more complex tasks, for the implementation of which narrow specialists with specific knowledge and skills began to be allocated. This led to an increase in labor productivity and an increase in the efficiency of enterprises, which contributed to the emergence of the concept of “business processes” of the enterprise. The formation and management of the organization’s business processes are the main elements of the organization’s entrepreneurial activity. The paper discloses theoretical and methodological approaches to the essence and content of enterprise business processes. Various definitions of the concept of «business processes» have been monitored, their essential characteristics have been specified, and their role in forming the organization’s indicators has been indicated. Systematization of types of business processes as an essential aspect of modeling business processes of enterprise is carried out. Summing up the results of the study of the essence of the category of «business processes» in the evolution of the scientific vision, it is necessary to distinguish the technical (focused on automation and standardization) and economic (managerial) directions of the definitions of this concept. Each business process within the system interacts with other business processes and is aimed at achieving the overall goals of the system (enterprise) through achieving the goals set for it.
