In this episode of A Side of Data, I interview Jan Mendling about the use of process mining in business process management (BPM) initiatives. We talk about where the real benefit of process mining is when applied to real-world processes and where the limit is.
Jan is a professor at Vienna University of economics and business. He is a successful researcher in the field of information systems, business process management, and process mining, with over 400 research articles published. One of his famous works is 7 process modeling guidelines. He coauthored books, such as Wirtschaftsinformatik and Fundamentals of business process management, the latter is used as a textbook in over 230 educational institutions around the world.
We talk about:
2:00 What is bpm, what processes are and why they need to be managed
7:00 What are information systems
8:00 What is process mining - how the data from information systems is now useful
11:00 Process mining helps accomplish BPM objectives
14:00 How process mining helps process analysts
17:30 Is just seeing how the processes are important? How does it help process analyst. How can you justify price of process mining software?
25:00 Continuous monitoring and auditing with process mining (improvement projects)
27:00 Innovation vs incremental process improvement
34:00 Is there anything that process mining still cannot do in helping BPM?
37:00 Case study with an example of a customer loans
40:30 AB testing of business processes
43:00 What is the future of BPM vs process mining
46:00 is process mining only applicable in BPM scenario?
48:00 Resource recommendations to start with PM and BPM
