1. A computing system comprising:
a data store configured to store document data of a process; and
at least one processor configured to:
query the data store for the document data of the process,
identify a plurality of milestones that occur within the process and one or more blockers, at least a portion of the plurality of milestones and the one or more blockers being identified from a group of known milestones and blockers, each individual milestone of the plurality of milestones comprising an event required to occur during the process, and each blocker of the one or more blockers comprising an occurrence or event which prevents at least one milestone from among the plurality of milestones from completing based on the document data,
generate a graph model of the process based on a predefined template, wherein the graph model comprises a plurality of nodes corresponding to the plurality of milestones and the blockers, the graph model including directional edges disposed between various nodes of the plurality of nodes, each of the directional edges including an indication of an amount of process instances which follow a particular direction between two of the various nodes,
identify completion ratios of the plurality of milestones based on a log of events of a plurality of executions of the process, and
display, via a user interface, the graph model of the process and illustrate the completion ratios within the graph model.
