Process Compare

Challenge

Two theoretically same processes are never the same in reality.  

In a corporation operating in various regions with many sites, employees perform several different processes every day. And even though the company has the processes standardized, it's not uncommon that each country or site adjusts the process based on its own best practices, traditions, different business opportunities, approaches to suppliers and customers, or legal requirements/regulations. 

How can you thoroughly examine these contrasts, visualize the differences, and take appropriate action?  

Solution

Process Compare helps you inspect different modifications of a process based on different regions, countries, departments, as well as different views generated from a single process based on two time periods.

You will also gain transparency to compare your real-life process with blueprints or BPMN models to monitor potential compliance issues and either adjust the process performance or redesign the model.

Application

The visualization allows you to identify differences in the flow of a process or on the activities and edges level, and: 

• compare the models, metrics, and statistics, 
• visually differentiate between activities/edges that have been executed in both models,  
• analyze activities only performed in one or the other process,  
• project future optimized performance by comparing the actual process with its simulation. 

Process Compare numerically and graphically displays the differences in frequency, performance, and finance metrics, but also numerical differences in attribute values of two processes.
