Unfortunately, a lot of big orgs build up process as organisational "scar tissue" after someone has eff-ed something up. It is also used as a way to compensate for hiring cheaper/lower quality people. I work at environment with a lot of peocess. There are a few approaches you can take: 1. Try and get some consensus of support from your peers and/or managers for improvements to make the processes less onerous 2. Do all you can to foster good relationships with the people in the various processes. You would be surprised how much things can be expedited if you're on good terms with the gatekeepers.
