Mine the current process before the future state is designed
SAP Signavio mines event logs from SAP and non-SAP systems, models the to-be process, governs the change, and feeds the redesign with conformance evidence. The data layer that turns business cases from opinion into proof, before any GROW or RISE redesign begins.

Source: SAP SignavioFour Signavio Modules Share One Process Source Of Truth
Signavio organises process intelligence into four modules that work as one product. Process Intelligence mines event logs. Process Manager governs the modelled to-be. Process Insights compares the two and surfaces continuous improvement. Process Governance handles the workflow around change. All four share the same process repository.
Mining the process from real system data
Event logs from SAP and non-SAP systems are mined into a visual process model. Conformance scoring exposes deviations and rework loops. The mined process becomes the evidence layer for every redesign decision.
Modelling and governing the to-be process
BPMN modelling, role-aware modelling, and process documentation in one workspace. Process Manager becomes the single source of truth for the to-be process across Cloud ERP, SuccessFactors, and Ariba.
Continuous improvement on SAP Best Practices
Pre-built SAP Best Practices content compared against the mined process surfaces gaps automatically. Process Insights ships content packs for procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, record-to-report, and more.
Workflow around change requests and approvals
Process change requests run through governed workflow. Approvals, reviews, and publication carry an audit trail. Governance turns the process repository into a controlled artefact, not a wiki nobody trusts.
Shared substrate. All four modules share one process repository, one identity surface, and one collaboration hub. The mined process from Intelligence, the modelled to-be from Manager, the benchmarks from Insights, and the change trail from Governance all reference the same process IDs.
How Do Enterprises Activate Signavio?
Signavio activation is a sequenced engagement, not a tool install. Data must be extracted, event logs shaped, mining configured, and the to-be process modelled before the redesign can land. The four-step journey lines up data, mining, modelling, and governance into one programme.
Source system extraction and event log shaping
Event logs from ECC, S/4HANA, or non-SAP systems are extracted, shaped into the Signavio event schema, and loaded into Process Intelligence. The quality of the extract decides the quality of every later finding.
Mining setup and conformance scoring
Process discovery runs against the loaded logs. The mined process is compared with a reference model and conformance scoring surfaces deviation hotspots. The findings ground the business case for the redesign.
To-be modelling in Process manager
The mined process is published into Process Manager, where the to-be design is built on top. BPMN modelling, role design, and decision rules align Cloud ERP scope items with the operating model.
Governance activation and continuous mining
Process Governance is switched on to manage change requests. Process Intelligence keeps mining the live system, comparing against the published to-be, and feeding insight into the next quarterly Cloud ERP release.
Who Benefits From The Signavio Activation First?
Signavio mines event logs into a credible process model so redesign is grounded in evidence. Three benefits land first — evidence over opinion, SAP Best Practices benchmarks, and continuous mining after go-live.
Process mining replaces workshop guesses
Event logs from SAP and non-SAP systems are mined into a visual process model. Conformance scoring exposes deviations and rework loops. The redesign decision is grounded in evidence, not opinion.

Pre-built SAP Best Practices content is compared against the mined process. Gaps surface automatically. Content packs ship for procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, record-to-report, and more.

Process Intelligence keeps mining the live system, comparing against the published to-be, and feeding insight into the next quarterly Cloud ERP release. Process truth stays current.

Nine capabilities organised across four layers. Mining and analytics on the data side. Modelling and governance on the design side. Insights benchmarks the gap. Collaboration distributes the result. Every capability below ships as part of the SAP Signavio suite.
Process discovery from event logs
Event logs from SAP and non-SAP systems are mined into a visual process model. The discovered process replaces the assumption that the documented process and the operating process are the same.
Conformance and variant analysis
Conformance scoring quantifies the gap between mined and target processes. Variant analysis names the deviation paths that consume the most cycle time, the most rework, and the most cost.
Root-cause analysis
Filters, attribute correlation, and statistical analysis identify the drivers behind a deviation. Root-cause output is the input the redesign team uses to fix the source, not the symptom.
BPMN and DMN modelling
BPMN 2.0 process modelling and DMN decision modelling in one workspace. Modelled processes carry role assignments, system interactions, and decision rules that flow into Cloud ALM as the implementation backlog.
Repository and traceability
Every model carries a version, an owner, and a publication trail. The process repository becomes the audit-grade source of truth referenced by Cloud ERP scope items and SuccessFactors role design.
Best Practices content packs
SAP Best Practices content packs ship pre-built mining setups for procure-to-pay, order-to-cash, record-to-report, and more. Discovery starts on day one, not after a quarter of data engineering.
Benchmarks and KPIs
SAP-published benchmarks compare the mined process against industry medians. KPI dashboards quantify the improvement potential by process step, not by gut feel.
Change-request workflow
Process change requests run through governed approval, review, and publication. The change trail satisfies audit reviewers without requiring a separate spreadsheet to reconstruct.
Collaboration Hub
Published processes ship to the Signavio Collaboration Hub, where business users review and comment without modeller access. The hub keeps the process repository discoverable across the enterprise.
The Agentic System Integrator Built For SAP
BCS is the world's first agentic system integrator. Twelve years of SAP delivery across 40+ enterprise programmes, paired with three proprietary platforms (Symphony, deKorvai, Anugal), make Signavio activation a continuous-operations event rather than a one-off project.
Senior SAP practitioners design the mining engagement. Symphony runs the activation. deKorvai keeps the upstream event data defensible. Anugal keeps the governed process repository compliant. The result is Signavio operating as evidence, not as an unread modelling tool.
Explore BCS SAP ServicesHow Does BCS Activate Signavio?
Signavio activation is a sequenced data and design programme, not a tool install. BCS runs source extraction, mining setup, modelling, and governance as one engagement so the redesign that follows is grounded in evidence rather than in workshop opinions.
Process discovery assessment
Identification of high-value processes, source-system access mapping, and a scoped mining backlog. The pre-engagement that grounds every later Signavio decision.

Extraction from ECC, S/4HANA, or non-SAP systems, shaping into the Signavio event schema, and load into Process Intelligence. The data engineering that decides finding quality.
Explore SAP ImplementationMining setup and conformance baseline
Discovery runs against the loaded logs, conformance scoring is baselined, and deviation hotspots are ranked. The output is the evidence pack the steering committee approves the redesign against.

BPMN modelling in Process Manager with role assignments tied back to Cloud ERP scope items and SuccessFactors authorisation design. The to-be becomes a controlled artefact, not a wiki.

Process Governance switched on with role-aware approval flow. Change requests carry an audit trail across the toolchain and feed into Cloud ALM as the controlled implementation backlog.
