Abstract
One of the most common questions raised during discussions, presentations, and initiation of projects is the question “how to start a successful project?” Experience and market research show that many Process Mining projects fail. Exaggerated promises and unrealistic expectations, unspecific targets, reluctant teams, and insufficient digital traces can be some reasons for failure. While there is no silver bullet, experience shows that—besides the three factors Purpose, People, and Processtraces, which will be explained in the following chapters—ten general aspects, including quick start, expectation management, and which process to start with, are crucial.
