Project setup

For a multi-channel bank-insurer headquartered in Belgium, focusing on private clients and small and medium-sized enterprises, we used process mining technology to increase efficiency and digitization in the life cycle of an insurance claim process. Process mining stands for an objective approach by analyzing your business through the data behind your operations, the digital track. This automated analysis brings an in-depth view on how your processes really work.

In a first phase, our consultants performed an in-depth analysis of the underlying data sources from several legacy systems. Then existing BI tools (MS Excel/QlikView) were used to create globalized data tables (case and event tables) to feed the process mining tool. In a second phase after loading the model with data, a testing was set up and improvements were made to the data model. In a third phase it was decided to create overview dashboards in order to facilitate analysis by the stakeholders involved.

This approach helped our client to locate unnecessary steps and remove bottlenecks. They are now able to keep track of SLAs in every subtask and find the causes of inefficiencies. To illustrate, we discovered a bottleneck caused by deficiency of the e-form system, doubling the promised processing time.
