Unlock Efficiency with Process Mining

Chosen theme: Improving Efficiency through Process Mining. Discover practical ways to turn messy event data into clear actions, eliminate bottlenecks, and build a culture of continuous improvement across your organization. Subscribe and share your biggest process challenges.

What Process Mining Really Reveals

Every click, scan, and status change leaves an event. Mining stitches those breadcrumbs into end-to-end flows, revealing shortcuts, detours, and idle time your traditional reports flatten away. Where is your longest wait hiding today?

Diagnosing Bottlenecks and Waste

Cycle analytics pinpoint queues between steps, vendors, or systems. Compare median versus tail performance to expose blocking constraints. When you remove one choke point, simulate the next constraint that will emerge. Tell us where queues hurt most.

Diagnosing Bottlenecks and Waste

Conformance checking flags loops, backtracks, and approvals repeated without value. Pair traces with defect categories to isolate root causes. Document quick fixes beside structural changes, then invite stakeholders to test hypotheses in a controlled sandbox.

Measuring What Matters

Establish an objective baseline across regions and channels, then benchmark against peers or past periods. Set stretch but attainable targets linked to value. Tell us which baseline surprised you most when the real traces appeared.

Measuring What Matters

Great dashboards change decisions. Highlight constraints, aging items, and outliers that deserve action today. Embed narratives explaining why trends move. Ask viewers to comment with the single metric they commit to improving this quarter.

Data, Privacy, and Trust

Anonymize personal identifiers, minimize sensitive fields, and implement retention policies. Explain clearly how data serves process improvement, not individual surveillance. Invite feedback on your privacy approach and publish updates when you refine controls.

Data, Privacy, and Trust

Define roles for data owners, stewards, and consumers. Enforce least-privilege access and audit trails across mining tools. Regularly review permissions as teams change. Share your governance model so readers can learn and adapt respectfully.

Stories from the Field

An emergency department mined triage events and discovered a hidden handoff loop adding twenty minutes per patient. Standardizing assessments and reassigning a clerk cut waits dramatically. Patients noticed faster care immediately. Share your favorite clinical efficiency story.

Stories from the Field

In accounts payable, mining exposed approvals idling on two managers’ desks each Friday. Rotating proxies and automating three checks reduced cycle time by 37 percent. Comment if your month-end still suffers Friday bottlenecks.

Sustaining Continuous Improvement

Establish a lightweight CoE to curate models, templates, and guardrails. Host office hours, maintain a pattern library, and celebrate measurable wins monthly. Ask readers to nominate processes for the next community spotlight.

Sustaining Continuous Improvement

Train analysts on event thinking, causal reasoning, and storytelling. Coach leaders to ask better questions, not for prettier charts. Invite subscribers to our quarterly clinic where we review anonymized traces together and practice decisions.
