Introduction to Process Mining

No, it is not necessary to hire specially qualified staff. Only a minor share of employees needs Data Scientist Skills to work with Celonis.

Standard data connectors are available for 75+ processes of 35+ IT systems.

Approx. 30-50 man days. However, implementation time varies with the complexity of the system to be connected and whether a pilot project (PoV) was already conducted.

Data storage duration depends on your preferences.

If the system is already connected there is no additional effort for setting up the connector. However, if the underlying database / table structure is not the same for the respective processes, every process needs its own data model and data transformation to use the data for analyses. Celonis has developed standard data connectors for a large variety of processes (75+) of standard IT systems (35+) to automate and accelerate the data integration and process connection.

Some technical knowledge is required to establish a database connection.

Automation rate calculation is based on the ratio of human- to computer-controlled interactions per activity.

Source data is transfered to the IBC via an extractor server. All data transferred to the IBC is encrypted via HTTPS using TLS 1.2 or higher.

Celonis can support the whole RPA implementation journey.In the area of robots implementation, we gain most of our experiences with the three main RPA vendors (UIPath, Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere), who are also our strategic partners.

Benchmarking in Celonis is very dynamic and flexibly configurable. It can be used to compare different business areas and factors as well as to track process improvement over time.

Celonis goes beyond end-to-end process transparency and provides customers with the Celonis Action Engine to prioritize actions and operationalize insights directly in their systems.

Yes, there are several ways to set up a target process in the conformance checker.

We provide you with our best practices and tailor them to the specific needs of all employees, who are using the respective analyses.

As implementation time depends greatly on the complexity and the extent of the data connection as well as on the system to be connected, no definite number can be committed here. As a general guideline approx. 30 man-days can be calculated for the implementation effort of one source system and approx. 20 days for each additional system. New source systems can be connected to the IBC as long as the system has a JDBC connector. There is no limitation regarding the number of source systems to be connected.

The Celonis App Store minimizes your time-to-value with quick and easy process connections and >300 predefined analyses.

Minimum requirement: Event log (ID, activity, timestamp). Some format specifiactions exist. Besides one-time data extracts, we can also establish a continuous data connection already within a PoV, which ensures a high data quality.

A dedicated project team, process experts, and management is hightly recommended to successfully conduct a Proof-of-Value.

No, this is not necessary for a Proof-of-Value.
