Process Discovery

See your business as it actually runs, not as documented. We reconstruct the real path work takes through your systems, including the variants nobody talks about.

100+ process variants typically surfaced

What we do

A focused capability, explained without jargon.

The ground truth

Most documented processes are aspirational. We rebuild the actual process, every variant, every loop, every detour, directly from the event logs your systems already produce.

  • End-to-end discovery from system events
  • Each variation ranked by how often it happens and what it costs
  • How often work follows the intended process vs. drifts from it
  • Broken down by time of day, site, and team

Variant analysis that explains itself

We don't just count variants. We explain why each one exists, and which ones are quietly costing you the most. That's the difference between a process diagram and a process strategy.

  • Top-N most expensive variants ranked by total cost
  • Driver analysis: what triggers each variant
  • Customer-impact and revenue exposure

Designed for executive review

Outputs are structured for leadership, not analysts. A COO can read a workflow analysis report and walk away knowing exactly where to look next.

What you get

Deliverables built for action, not for the shelf.

Process map of record

A single, auditable view of how your process really runs, across teams, systems, and time.

Variant catalog

Every meaningful variant of your process, ranked by frequency and cost.

Process-adherence report

Where day-to-day reality diverges from the documented process, and what that gap is costing you.

Cross-system visibility

End-to-end view across ERP, WMS, ITSM, CRM, and core-banking systems.

Segment-level analysis

Team, site, region, and product splits, surfaced where it matters, hidden where it doesn't.

Audit-grade evidence

Every finding traceable to specific events. Useful for compliance and internal review.
