Interrelation of business process maturity and spiral dynamics stages in enterprises

The article explores the correlation between business process maturity levels and organizational development stages, as defined by the Spiral Dynamics framework. The research object is technology-intensive enterprises undergoing scaling and digital transformation. The methodological approach integrates maturity assessment tools, including process audits, structured interviews, and integrated maturity process index (MPI) calculation, with Spiral Dynamics diagnostics based on adapted questionnaires, hierarchy index analysis, and critical incident interviews. Results demonstrate a statistically significant correlation between process maturity and organizational value stages. Case analysis revealed that IT startups tended to shift from Orange to Green stages, while GMP-certified plants maintained Blue dominance despite advanced process maturity. The findings highlight cultural alignment as a decisive factor for successful digital transformation. Practical recommendations are proposed for phased standardization in early-stage organizations, cultural adaptation strategies in regulated enterprises, and conflict-resolution mechanisms in hybrid environments.
