What is Process Mining

Process mining is a component of Process Intelligence along with process modelling, process automation, and task mining. Gartner defines Process Mining as

“A technique designed to discover, monitor and improve real processes (i.e., not assumed processes) by extracting readily available knowledge from the event logs of information systems.”

Process mining techniques involve

Process Discovery - creates a process model based on the data

Process Analytics - analyzes the core reason for process inadequacies

Conformance checking - increases the performance by comparing and referring the existing process models

Benefits of Process Mining

Cost Reduction - Process mining tools analyzes the operations using event logs which helps in process automation. Companies automate the processes through RPA bots. This helps in tracking the process from purchase order to invoicing through automation. Process mining also eliminates the unnecessary cost due to constant changes in processes.

Efficient Customer Experience - Process mining tools reduce the time spent on optimizing the processes, reduces the reaction time through continuous process monitoring, and identifies and rectifies the bottlenecks. These increases the satisfaction of customers which result in the betterment of the organization.

Increase Compliance - Process mining tools analyzes the data faster which results in effective auditing in less time. This identifies the compliance issues instantly.

What is Robotic Process Automation

“Robotic process automation (RPA) is a productivity tool that allows a user to configure one or more scripts (which some vendors refer to as “bots”) to activate specific keystrokes in an automated fashion”- Gartner

RPA is used in industries like healthcare, insurance, banking and finance etc. RPA is incorporated to relieve humans from the mundane tasks that are repetitive.

Digital Transformation

"Digital transformation can refer to anything from IT modernization (for example, cloud computing) to digital optimization, to the invention of new digital business models. The term is widely used in public-sector organizations to refer to modest initiatives such as putting services online or legacy modernization”- Gartner

Digital transformation is implementing digital technologies in converting the existing ecosystem in businesses/ organizations. Organizations adopting to digital transformation is no longer an option but a requirement. Hence, every organization is accustoming to the digital technology in this emerging environment.

RPA and process mining complement in this transformation. RPA works on the repetitive tasks in industries like healthcare, insurance, and financial services while process mining enhances the businesses by deploying bots. Process mining keeps a track of the changes made and correct it which results in the growth and productivity of the organization.

“Digital transformation is all about unlocking value in your business processes and releasing it back to customers – as well as being agile enough to use data and analytics to create new, innovative experiences.”

- David Macdonald, Executive Vice President and Chief Sales Officer at SAS

To have a successful journey in digital transformation through RPA and process mining, there are three requirements. The organization needs to - understand their measures for productivity and progress at work, analyze the employees’ skillsets, and define their approaches and development. Make your workspace productive through RPA by eliminating the mundane tasks, and eliminate the bottlenecks in business through process mining.
