Merging Next Generation Process Mining with Proven Business Process Management: iGrafx acquires Logpickr

The iGrafx Business Transformation Platform gains patent-pending process mining capabilities, targeting faster value for digital transformation and regulatory compliance initiatives.

The iGrafx Business Transformation Platform enables organizations to connect strategy to execution while mitigating risk. This ensures compliance and provides a framework for governance and continuous business improvement. It is with continuous improvement that iGrafx announces the acquisition of the process mining specialist Logpickr, based in Rennes, France.

Logpickr is best known for developing the patent-pending Process Explorer 360 solution for next-generation process mining. With this acquisition, iGrafx now delivers a comprehensive approach to process improvement. The merge ensures both organizations focus on operational excellence and regulatory compliance. Plus, digital transformation initiatives can improve processes and their bottom line.

Why Process Mining?

With process mining, organizations can uncover their process reality versus process assumption. They can extract information from sources. These include event logs to gain a detailed understanding of which steps are taken to complete a business process.

According to Fortune Business Insights, the global process mining software market is growing at a CAGR of 49.3%. It is projected to surge from $627 million to $10 billion by 2028 and Gartner predicts the process mining market will surpass $1 billion in 2022 alone.

This growth is driven by process mining software vendors implementing artificial intelligence functionality along with mining capabilities. It provides organizations with real-time analysis and more opportunities to enhance business operation capabilities. According to Accenture, 88 percent of companies that implemented machine learning in business process witnessed 8x improvement.

However, analyst Alan Pelz-Sharpe notes the business analysis phase is the most critical but is also given the fewest resources.

The Logpickr Advantage

Logpickr solutions and process mining capabilities are truly next-generation. There is patent-pending technology that enables the tool to understand complex processes and simplify analysis.

Traditional mining solutions work for simple, linear processes. However, they fall short when it comes to the combination of concurrent events and multi-system events. This is problematic because it requires an organization to have greater technical skills. They must understand what has been mined and that potentially causes them to waste time analyzing false variants.

Because Logpickr can analyze concurrent tasks, Process Explorer 360 reduces the number of variants by up 80 percent. The solution also leverages predictive artificial intelligence capabilities to warn users about possible process issues.

Leverage patent-pending process mining technology combined with machine learning and artificial intelligence in an easy-to-use, highly functional interface.
