Abstract

The academic evolution of process mining is moving toward object centric process mining, marking a significant shift in how processes are modeled and analyzed. IBM has developed its own distinctive approach called Multilevel Process Mining. This paper provides a description of the two approaches and presents a comparative analysis of their respective advantages and limitations. IBM leveraged this comparison to drive the evolution of IBM Process Mining product, creating the new Organizational Mining feature, an innovation that combines the best of the two approaches. Demonstrate the potential of this novel, innovative and distinct methodology with an example.
