| ### Dataset Summary |
|
|
| Abstract. Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used for boosting organizational efficiency and automating tasks. |
| While not originally designed for complex cognitive processes, recent efforts have further extended to employ LLMs in activities such as reasoning, planning, |
| and decision-making. In business processes, such abilities could be invaluable for leveraging on the massive corpora LLMs have been trained on for gaining a deep understanding |
| of such processes. In adherence to this goal, we attach here the BP<sup>C</sup> dataset, a newly developed set of process-aware Q&A that can be used to assess |
| the ability of LLMs to reason about causal and process perspectives of business operations. |
| We refer to this view as Causally-augmented Business Processes (BP^C). The benchmark comprises a set of domain-specific BP<sup>C</sup> related situations, |
| a set of questions about these situations, and a set of ground truth answers to these questions. |
| Reasoning on BP^C is of crucial importance for process interventions and process improvement. |
| The benchmark could be used in one of two possible modalities: testing the performance of any target LLM and training an LLM to advance its capability to reason about BP^C. |
