What does Process Mining show me?

It reconstructs how work actually flows through your warehouse from event data — detours, rework, waiting and all. You see the real process rather than the one everyone assumes is running.

How does it build the process map?

Flow reconstruction turns your event data into end-to-end process maps, broken down per process type and per zone. The map is built from what the data records, not from a documented ideal.

Can it find where time is being lost?

Yes. It detects detours and rework — where tasks loop back, wait or wander — with the cost attached, and ranks bottleneck steps and locations by the hours they drain, so you know what to fix first.

How do I know a change actually worked?

Process maps are re-mined after each change so you get a before-and-after comparison. That tells you whether the fix stuck or whether the old pattern crept back in.

What data does process mining run on?

Your activity or event history, which you can supply through the Universal WMS API, scheduled exports or a CSV or XLS upload. It analyses the data your WMS already produces, with no code required.

How soon do I see the real process?

Getting started takes less than a day and the first actionable analysis lands in about an hour, so you are looking at your true process quickly rather than after weeks of setup.

Process Mining

The process you actually run.

Flow reconstruction

Event data becomes end-to-end process maps, per process type and zone.

Timestamped scan and system events are stitched together by SKU, order or task, with no one drawing a flowchart from memory first. What comes out reflects the shortcuts and workarounds crews use today, not the version in the SOP that hasn't been touched since the layout last changed.

Detour & rework detection

Where tasks loop back, wait or wander — with the cost attached.

Each task's actual path is checked against the shortest path that task type should take, so a detour shows up as a specific divergence rather than a vague delay. Patterns that repeat at the same location — a blocked cross-aisle, a mislabelled bin — surface as a named cause, not just lost time.

Bottleneck evidence

The steps and locations where hours drain, ranked by impact.

Time-in-step is summed across every instance of the process, then weighted by how many orders pass through that step, so a rarely used but chronically slow location doesn't drown out one that's slow and busy. What lands on a supervisor's desk is a short list to act on, not a wall of process diagrams.

Before / after comparison

Process maps re-mined after each change — did the fix stick?

The same mining pass runs again once the change has bedded in, using the identical method and thresholds as the baseline, so the two maps are directly comparable rather than eyeballed side by side. A fix that solved the problem in one zone but pushed the rework downstream shows up immediately, instead of surfacing months later in a different report.
