Structured processes are formally defined processes, whereas dynamic processes are informal processes. Unlike in the case of dynamic processes, changes to structured processes are slow, made with deliberation, and are difficult to implement. Control is critical in structured processes, whereas adaptation is critical in dynamic processes. Both efficiency and effectiveness are important in structured processes, whereas effectiveness is more important in dynamic processes. Information systems are prescriptive in structured processes, whereas they are supportive in dynamic processes. Innovation is not expected in structured processes, whereas, innovation is required in dynamic processes.
