Abstract

In today's volatile environment, organizations are constantly striving to optimize their processes in order to maintain competitive advantages. Thereby, process mining supports data-driven process optimization, for example, through prescriptive process monitoring. So far, prescriptive process monitoring mainly focuses on data from single organizations. However, there are often similar processes across several organizations with the same process goals but differing processes. This entails the potential for mutual learning from an interorganizational perspective. Yet, since process data contains sensitive information, data sovereignty represents a major requirement. Federated learning serves as a promising starting point to do so. Thus, following the design science paradigm, we developed, instantiated, and evaluated an approach for data-sovereign, interorganizational prescriptive process monitoring based on federated learning, providing a proof of concept and a foundation for future research.
