From process guesswork to data-driven improvement<\/h2>\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>
\n\t

Scheer PAS process mining and analysis creates a fact-based overview of how your processes actually run across SAP and surrounding systems. Instead of relying on workshops and static documentation, you get evidence from event data: real process paths, true cycle times, and deviations from the standard. Those insights then feed targeted improvement and automation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>1. Connect event data across SAP and surrounding systems<\/div>\n\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Scheer PAS can ingest process-relevant event data from SAP (both ECC and S\/4HANA) and non-SAP applications such as CRM, ticketing, WMS, partner portals, and custom systems. The objective is a single analytical view of the end-to-end process, not isolated system reports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

<\/div>2. Discover the real process flow (Not the assumed one)<\/div>\n\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Using event logs, the platform reconstructs the process as it is executed in reality, showing the dominant paths and the long tail of variants. This replaces \u201cbest-guess\u201d documentation with an objective process model that stakeholders can quickly align on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
<\/div>3. Analyse bottlenecks, rework, and variant drivers<\/div>\n\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Scheer PAS highlights where time and cost accumulate: repeated handovers, approvals that loop, rework after error corrections, and process segments that consistently exceed SLAs. Analysis then goes beyond a single average cycle time by separating standard cases from exception patterns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
<\/div>4. Check conformance and surface compliance deviations<\/div>\n\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Compare execution against a target process (policy, standard operating procedure, or governance model). Deviations become measurable: where steps are skipped, performed out of order, or executed without required controls. This supports audit readiness and operational risk reduction.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

<\/div>5. Prioritise improvements and feed automation with evidence<\/div>\n\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Insights are translated into action: which process variants to standardise, which decision points to redesign, and which tasks are stable enough to automate. For many organisations, process mining becomes the \u201cprioritisation engine\u201d for process automation. Therefore, the automation starts with the highest-value, lowest-regret opportunities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\"In the era of agentic automation, process mining is no longer just about analysis: it is the sensory system for our AI agents. To orchestrate autonomous processes with confidence, you need the real-time transparency and guardrails that only integrated process mining can provide.\"<\/h3>\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>
