Question 1

What Is Business Process Discovery?

Accepted Answer

Business Process Discovery (BPD) involves the identification, mapping, and analysis of business processes in their current state to gain a comprehensive understanding of an organization’s operations and to uncover how processes are executed.

A systematic approach helps in documenting the current state of processes, which is essential for standardization, regulatory compliance, and process re-engineering efforts.

So far, Process Discovery has mostly been done through Process Management teams, holding workshops and assembling information manually.

One well known discipline that is often associated with the field of Business Process Discovery is Process Mining. This data driven approach allows to gain insights from event logs and data storages.

Question 2

What Is The Difference To Process Mining?

Accepted Answer

Business Process Mining refers to the discipline of identifying, mapping, and analysing business processes through data driven approaches.

When Process Mining, known processes and workflows are followed up through and tested against event logs and data storages.

The outcome is a detailed picture of how processes have actually been executed.

Business Process Discovery, the field aiones has focused on, features extraction of information from direct communications.

We believe the people working in your organization are the best source of knowledge to understand what you do and how you generate value.

Aiones can provide you with a detailled image of your process landscape, before data is accessible – or even before processes are established!
