Process Mining: Discover Reality

► The Visibility Gap

You can't automate what you don't understand.

54% of orgs struggle to map processes. The problem isn't complexity. It's that nobody knows what's actually happening.

> Documentation vs Reality

The Manual

5 neat steps.
Linear flow.
Ideal conditions.

The Reality

47 different paths.
Workarounds.
Hidden queues.

> What Mining Reveals

[Hidden Bottlenecks]
Work sits in queues for days because approval flows don't match reality.
[Shadow Processes]
Teams bypass broken workflows. Invisible to management, but highly efficient.
[Variation Chaos]
Different teams do the same task differently. Chaos creates compliance risk.
[Integration Gaps]
Manual data re-entry between systems causing delays and errors.

> Methodology

STEP 01DATA COLLECTION// Extract event logs from ERP/CRM
STEP 02DISCOVERY// Map actual flows & variations
STEP 03CONFORMANCE// Compare reality vs documentation
STEP 04ANALYSIS// Quantify bottlenecks & ROI
STEP 05OPTIMIZATION// Automate based on evidence

W1-2: AssessIdentify tracking systems.
W3-4: CollectExtract & normalize event data.
W5-6: DiscoverMap flows. Find truth.
W7-8: AnalyzeSize the opportunity.
W9-12: StrategyDesign evidence-based automation.

Evidence beats assumptions. Automate reality, not theory.
