The ongoing wave of digitalization presents organizations with numerous new opportunities. A particularly exciting area is generative AI, which is gaining increasing importance in corporate leadership and management. This technology not only transforms process management but also strengthens participative leadership approaches and ushers in a new era of efficiency and creativity. Modell Aachen by Ariadne has established itself as a pioneer in this field and demonstrates how generative AI can be utilized today and in the future.
GenAI for process proposals and speech mining
One of the most remarkable capabilities of generative AI lies in process modeling. Modell Aachen by Ariadne already leverages this technology in Q.wiki IMS to optimize processes efficiently. With simple prompts, generative AI can create a detailed 60-70% version of a process proposal, such as an SAP procurement process. These proposals serve as ideal starting points in workshops, where employees are actively involved.
Another highlight is “Speech Mining.” Here, processes are verbally described and directly converted into a process model. This method significantly reduces the effort involved in process modeling and enables companies to quickly capture knowledge and best practices.
Image recognition and error prevention
The capabilities of generative AI extend beyond text. It also delivers impressive results in the area of image recognition and analysis. A Q.wiki client uses this technology, for example, to identify safety risks on construction sites or analyze chaotic workshops and make improvement suggestions based on Lean Management principles such as 5S.
The Answer Engine and Management System Push
Modell Aachen by Ariadne is developing a generative AI-powered answer engine that provides employees with precise answers to specific questions. This functionality revolutionizes the usability of management systems and makes corporate knowledge more accessible.
Another innovative approach is the “Management System Push.” In this scenario, relevant information is displayed contextually, such as when booking rental cars, hotels, or entering master data into SAP. This greatly increases efficiency and ensures employees are more likely to follow corporate guidelines.
The IMS Vision
Modell Aachen by Ariadne specializes in integrating generative AI into management systems to make them more dynamic and participatory. This makes generating content for process, quality, and knowledge management extremely simple. As a result, organizations move closer to understanding how they function—or should function. This leads to management system documentation evolving into a kind of digital twin of what has been agreed upon as the framework for collaborative work.
In this context, Modell Aachen by Ariadne currently focuses on three core areas:
Speech Mining: Effortless process modeling enables processes to be verbally described during their execution and converted into structured models.
AI Answer Engine: This feature turns management systems into interactive platforms that respond to queries and provide relevant information. [Coming soon in Q.wiki]
Management System Push: Context-aware provision of information facilitates the implementation of best practices in daily work. [Already available in Q.wiki, non-AI-based]
Another role for AI, as envisioned by the company, is in compliance integration. In the future, AI is expected to support leadership in adhering to legal and ethical requirements by identifying potential risks in real time.
“If we massively reduce the effort required to communicate guidelines for formulating guidelines and at the same time massively reduce the effort required to consume guidelines and best practices, at our company we no longer like to talk about management system documentation, as in the past, but about lightweight management system communication. And not just from manager to employee, but also from knowledge carrier, i.e. from employee to manager and collaboratively among each other.” Carsten Behrens – Ariadne CEO fka Modell Aachen
Conclusion: The improvement potential is huge
The introduction of generative AI into interactive management systems like Q.wiki offers immense potential to simplify processes and enrich daily work routines. Modell Aachen by Ariadne illustrates how this technology can be utilized today and the opportunities it presents for the future. Companies that embrace these developments early will be well-equipped to successfully tackle the challenges of digital transformation.
The company has established itself as an innovation leader, setting benchmarks for the use of generative AI in management systems. With a clear focus on participation and efficiency improvement, the company demonstrates how technology and people can work hand in hand to build a more efficient and impactful future.
