Key Findings & Highlights

Skan continues to evolve its Process Intelligence Platform with capabilities that enable organizations to more easily understand how human desktop work is executed within their processes, including long-running ones. New features like process attribute extraction and hierarchical process understanding also grow its competitiveness against leaders in the more mature process mining space by bringing in more contextual data to enhance process understanding.

Process Intelligence Platform includes automated root cause analysis functionality to find the key influencers to client’s process questions, e.g., what influences actual vs. planned return to work times. It also includes what-if simulation capability for understanding the impact of potential process changes.

Skan has opened its Process Intelligence Platform to enable clients to leverage their data and its insights on other business intelligence platforms they may already be using.

Its pricing model is based on per-user licenses; it charges a tiered annual subscription per virtual agent and analyst/process owner.

The company finds clients typically take two months from setting up to value realization; this includes the initial report out and identification of potential next steps (e.g., automation and process improvement). The company can provide continuous visibility and comparison of before and after process changes.

Skan is targeting businesses with systems that cannot generate transaction logs necessary for traditional process mining tools. The company finds legacy systems and terminal-based (Citrix) systems a driving force for adoption within the banking and financial service industry.
