Bring visibility, governance and scalability to RPA with Process Mining

Written by Amendra Pratap | May 13, 2023

Process Mining and RPA are two powerful tools that can help organizations increase efficiency and reduce costs. When used together, they can provide unprecedented visibility and insight into organizational processes, allowing for greater scalability of RPA implementations and unlocking hidden value.

 

With Process Mining, organizations can identify inefficiencies in their processes and use RPA to automate tasks and optimize operations. CFOs recognize the potential of this combination and view investments in Process Mining as a key factor in maximizing returns from RPA. 

In fact, a 2021 Gartner survey found that “CFOs see investment in process mining as key to unlocking returns from RPA.

Capabilities of a value-rich Process Mining solution 

The potential of the returns will depend on the features of the selected Process Mining solution; the most profitable outcome will come from a solution that can: 

  • Automatically capture all activity 
  • Identify where bottlenecks are occurring and diagnose their root causes.  
  • Provide intelligent recommendations for tackling process inefficiencies.  
  • Create a precise digital twin of the organization (DTO). 
  • Calculate granular ROI. 
  • Automatically create software bots

Have you ever wondered how Process Mining can help you maximize the value of RPA? In this blog post, we’ll explore the ways in which Process Mining can be used to identify where and how RPA can bring the greatest benefits. Read on to see how Process Mining can help you get the most out of your RPA investments! 

First, it’s useful to recap the many benefits of using RPA as a standalone solution. When it’s used to automate repetitive, mundane tasks like data entry and batch file re-naming, RPA can: 

  • Deliver value fast 
  • Eliminate human error 
  • Increase productivity 
  • Boost employee engagement 
  • Beat labor shortages

When RPA is used together with Process Mining, these benefits increase exponentially. The two solutions used together enable the organization to: 

Scale RPA across the organization

Process Mining is revolutionizing the way businesses use Robotic Process Automation (RPA). By analyzing data from across the entire organization, Process Mining can identify tasks that are suitable for automation. This means that RPA can be utilized to its full strategic potential, allowing businesses to maximize the efficiency of their operations.
