Web-based platforms for applying graph theory and critical path methodologies to value chain management with event streaming platforms

A system, comprising:

• an event streaming platform in communication with a plurality of systems;
• an alerting platform;
• an automation platform;
• and
• a value chain platform comprising a computer processor an executing a computer program that is configured to receive a value stream for a process, wherein the value stream comprises an identification of a plurality of the systems involved in the process and a plurality of expected events in the process;
• to receive an event from the event streaming platform, wherein the event was published by a system of the plurality of systems and comprises a system identifier for the system and a process identifier for a process;
• to process the event by comparing the event to the value stream;
• to generate a new event based on the processing;
• to publish the new event to the event streaming platform, wherein the new event is consumed by the plurality of systems;
• to generate metrics for the process;
• to publish the metrics to an alerting platform, wherein the alerting platform is configured to generate an alert in response to receiving certain metrics;
• and to publish the metrics to an automation platform, wherein the automation platform is configured to suggest an automation in response to receiving certain metrics.
