Process and Task Mining

Leveraging Process Mining and Task Mining presents a data-guided avenue for process enhancement

They assist businesses in pinpointing inefficiencies, reducing expenditures, and gaining a competitive advantage in the modern digital environment

Today, process mining and task mining play a critical role for businesses. They work alongside Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and facilitate organizations in adopting a data-guided approach to process optimization. Process Mining, by capturing the current state of any process from start to finish, creates in-depth process maps and flows, assisting business analysts and process consultants in determining areas for improvement. Process Mining and Task Mining applications collaborate with various enterprise systems like ERP, CRM, Finance, Accounting, Operations, HR, and other business applications to detect discrepancies in processes. Upon uncovering these discrepancies, they can be addressed and often automated using RPA bots. Task mining evaluates user activity on individual systems to determine the efficiency of a task within an overarching process, monitoring data from keystrokes to mouse clicks. Task mining accumulates user input from diverse applications necessary to fulfill a particular task. To interpret and analyze data for further investigation by business analysts and process consultants, task mining employs advanced technologies such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms.

Addressing Process Mining Challenges in Mid-sized Organizations

The implementation of process mining and task mining can pose challenges for mid-sized organizations, particularly regarding the lack of skilled resources and the expense of cutting-edge technology. With limited budgets, mid-sized organizations may be unable to invest in the most advanced process and task mining technologies or employ costly dedicated data analysts. Moreover, these organizations often have their data and processes spread across numerous systems and applications, impeding optimization efforts and the effective deployment of process and task mining. To excel in process mining and task mining projects, companies need skillful process optimization consulting and meaningful digital transformation insights, qualities that not all companies or external consultancies can deliver. To overcome these challenges, it is vital to adopt a strategic approach that accommodates the unique needs and constraints of mid-sized organizations. Forming a partnership with a reputable third-party provider with expertise in process and task mining, process optimization, and digital transformation consulting can be a powerful solution. Valenta embodies all these competencies, and we take great pride in offering these impactful services to our clients.

Process mining is dependent on event log data from ERP, CRM, or standalone F&A, HRMS applications whereas Task mining is focused entirely on a business user’s interaction data on their systems such as Keystrokes, Mouse Clicks, or data entries. Both process and task mining technologies complement each other very well and assist Business Analysts and Process Consultants and AI assisted recommendations.

Our Process and Task Mining Team combines various technologies to give you the very best of Digital Transformation.

To gain wide scale acceptance, the technology must work, and our Team of Developers, Solution Architects, Business Analysts, Infrastructure Engineers, and Process Heads work closely with you and your team to create an Automation Mindset and more importantly define your Automation Strategy.

To Automate a Business Process

requires a deep understanding of the underlying process or task that is to be Automated. We use the following steps at Valenta to ensure that we deliver high performance Automations to our clients.

Process Walkthrough

Deep Dive with the client on the process / task they intend to Automate
Insights

Process Design Documentation

Business Analysts Document the entire process for the Developers and provide feedback and suggestions to improve the process and use Process and Task Mining applications to generate the Process Design Document
Prioritize, needs, documents

Solution Design Documentation

Solution Architects finalize the Solutioning of the Process including any integrations and best practices to approach the Automation
Test

UAT (User Acceptance Testing)

Allow users to test the process on live cases / accounts and modify / enhance the solution if needed
Deploy

Go-Live

Deploy the Solution on the Clients Environment

There is a sign off at each step to ensure no sub process or task is missed during the development phase and should there be any changes as per business requirements, the process is documented before redesign and development.

Benefits of Process and Task Mining :

benefits of process and task mining
  • Automatically discover your Business Process – Process and Task mining use digital footprints left behind in your systems and applications to show you everything that happens in your processes.
  • Understand where Automation will derive the Most value – Let process and task mining help you seek our process pain points and bottlenecks; and what they’re costing you.
