Put a number on your process improvement opportunity
You want to know what improving your processes is worth, so you can justify the investment and measure the benefit. Process mining measures what happens, from the event logs your systems already generate, and turns the hunch into a figure finance will fund.
Get the numberWhat a measured opportunity gives you
An opportunity you can quantify is one finance will fund. A measured figure replaces a hunch, so investment decisions are made on evidence and the gain compounds.
How to size a process improvement opportunity
The opportunity sits in three places most reporting does not surface:
- Rework loops.Cases that move between teams: a rejected approval, a data-entry correction, a returned form. Each loop is real hours that were not logged as improvement potential.
- Cycle-time gaps.The difference between how long a process should take and how long it takes. A two-hour delay on the right step can carry a monthly value in interest, penalties or throughput.
- Variant spread.The number of different paths the same process follows. Ten "exceptions" that turn out to be the norm are ten places to standardise.
You quantify it by measuring the real path, cycle times, rework rates and bottlenecks against the intended one, then valuing the difference. That is process mining: it reconstructs every execution path from the logs your systems already produce, so the number is measured, not estimated.
How the number is measured
Process mining reconstructs every execution path from the logs your systems already produce, so the figure is measured, not estimated. Scoped to a defined process area to land a measurable figure quickly.
Questions to ask before you start
How do you put a number on it?
We mine the event logs your systems already produce and measure cycle times, rework loops and bottlenecks against the intended path.
Do we need clean data first?
No. Mining works from the logs as they are, and we handle reconciliation.
How long until we see a number?
The proof-of-value is scoped to a defined process area, so you see a measured figure quickly.
What if there is little to find?
Then you have evidence of a healthy process, which is also a decision-ready result.
