Process Mining Starter Package
Include Z-coding to lay the foundation for your process analysis.
SAP Signavio Process Intelligence automatically reconstructs actual processes and highlights weak points by analyzing real process data from your IT systems. The tool recognizes deviations, bottlenecks, and inefficiencies, and supports data-based process improvements. This lays a solid foundation for your SAP S/4HANA transformation. With the abat Intelligence Extractor, analyzing customer-specific Z-coding and individual processes is considerably simpler and more systematic.
What are the advantages of Process Mining?
- Real-time transparency: A clear view of actual processes instead of theoretical models.
- Increased efficiency: Identification and elimination of bottlenecks, redundancies, and manual activities.
- Cost reduction: Optimization of resources and minimization of process costs through data-based measures.
- Compliance monitoring: Detecting deviations from regulatory requirements and internal guidelines.
- Faster decision-making: Well-founded, data-driven decisions through objective process analyses.
