Abstract

Having a reliable understanding about the behaviours, problems, and performance of existing processes is important in enabling a targeted process
improvement initiative. Recently, there has been an increase in the application of innovative process mining techniques to facilitate
evidence-based understanding about organizations' business processes. Nevertheless, the application of these techniques in the domain of finance in
Australia is, at best, scarce. This paper details a 6-month case study on the application of process mining in one of the largest insurance companies in
Australia. In particular, the challenges encountered, the lessons learned, and the results obtained from this case study are detailed. Through this case
study, we not only validated existing `lessons learned' from other similar case studies, but also added new insights that can be beneficial to other
practitioners in applying process mining in their respective fields.
