BPX Process Mining Benchmark: US Manufacturer Recovers Millions in Working Capital Across 90,000 O2C Cases

Process intelligence turns order-to-cash exhaust data into liquidity as the SAP ECC 2027 clock pressures finance teams to prove ROI before migration.

DUBAI, DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, July 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Why do finance leaders keep chasing liquidity through new credit lines when millions sit stranded inside their own order-to-cash cycle? Business Process Xperts (BPX), a global consulting firm running SAP transformation engagements across five continents, has published a downloadable 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 benchmark documenting how a United States building materials manufacturer recovered millions in trapped working capital after analyzing more than 90,000 order-to-cash cases. The report converts one live 𝗦𝗔𝗣 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 into a reusable reference for operations and finance leaders who want proof that process intelligence moves the P&L, not just the process map.

Across the engagement, BPX mapped 90,000+ order-to-cash cases and isolated 14 use cases with direct P&L impact. The mining work drove a 25% reduction in overdue payments, a 55% drop in sales order rejections, and a 22% gain in on-time delivery, while identifying price-change-reduction scenarios covering 60% of pricing variance and launching 10 automation activities.

Liquidity has become the boardroom's scarcest asset, and receivables sit at the center of the squeeze. The Hackett Group's 2025 US Working Capital Survey found $1.7 trillion trapped in excess working capital across the top 1,000 US publicly traded nonfinancial companies. Accounts receivable alone accounts for roughly $600 billion of that opportunity, driven by an 18-day DSO gap between top and median performers. Demand for the tooling that exposes those gaps keeps climbing, with the global process mining software market valued at $3.66 billion in 2025 and projected to reach $58.18 billion by 2034.

Most of that trapped cash never signals a crisis. It accumulates quietly through unmodeled order-to-cash variants, silent rework, and pricing leakage that no month-end report isolates.

There is a race against time happening in relation to the SAP transformation back log. The support for ECC will cease on December 31, 2027, forcing countless firms to move to 𝗦/𝟰𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗔 where every undocumented procedure will be unearthed. Manufacturers who have already analyzed their order to cash cycle move forward with a plan based on facts and release the trapped cash prior to moving.
