On-Demand Webinar: Discovering Digital Process Twins With Professor Marlon Dumas

In an era where digital transformation is reshaping industries, the concept of digital process twins stands out as a revolutionary technology. Recently, Professor Marlon Dumas, a leading authority in process mining and digital transformation and Apromore CPO, was invited by the AUTO-TWIN Project to present a webinar on "Discovering Digital Process Twins for What-If Analysis." The session, which is available for replay here, delves into the power of digital process twins for what-if analysis and their potential to drive efficiency and innovation. 

Understanding Digital Process Twins 

Digital process twins are virtual representations of business processes, created to mirror real-world operations. Unlike traditional digital twins, which focus on physical assets, digital process twins simulate and analyze the flow of activities within an organization. This enables businesses to monitor, analyze, and optimize their processes in real time. 

What-if analysis is a critical function enabled by digital process twins. It allows organizations to simulate different scenarios and predict the outcomes of various decisions. By leveraging what-if analysis, companies can make informed choices, anticipate potential challenges, and identify opportunities for improvement. 

Key Highlights and Learnings

By creating digital process twins, organizations can simulate different scenarios to see how changes might impact their operations. This predictive capability helps in making data-driven decisions, reducing risks, and optimizing processes. For instance, a financial services provider used what-if analysis through digital process twins to evaluate the impact of regulatory changes. This proactive approach led to a 20% improvement in compliance efficiency and a significant reduction in compliance-related costs.

Digital process twins enhance operational efficiency. By continuously monitoring and analyzing processes, these digital twins provide insights into inefficiencies and bottlenecks. What-if analysis can then be used to test potential solutions and identify the most effective strategies for improvement. This leads to more streamlined operations, reduced costs, and improved productivity. A manufacturing firm that implemented digital process twins achieved a 15% increase in production output and a 10% reduction in operational costs by optimizing its production line. 

Moreover, digital process twins foster innovation by allowing organizations to experiment with new ideas in a risk-free environment. Companies can quickly test and iterate on new processes, products, or strategies, accelerating the pace of innovation. Additionally, digital process twins enable organizations to adapt more swiftly to changes in the market or regulatory environment, ensuring they remain competitive and compliant. For example, a logistics company improved its delivery times by 25% and enhanced customer satisfaction through the use of digital process twins to redesign routing and scheduling processes.

 Continuous improvement is a core principle of many successful businesses. Digital process twins and what-if analysis provide the tools needed for ongoing optimization. By regularly simulating different scenarios and analyzing outcomes, organizations can continually refine their processes and achieve incremental gains in efficiency and effectiveness. A retail chain used digital process twins to continuously refine its inventory management processes, resulting in a 30% reduction in stockouts and a 20% increase in inventory turnover.  

 As organizations strive to navigate the complexities of the modern world, embracing digital process twins will be key to achieving both operational excellence and strategic success.
