RPA FAQs
While productivity is the primary driver of RPA implementation, outcomes differ depending on the type, processes, and department involved. Research indicates potential RPA benefits including:
Cost Reduction - Automation cuts costs 25-50%, with robots costing a third of offshore and a fifth of onshore full-time staff.
Efficiency Gains - Software robots work 24/7/365, increasing task volume and velocity.
Quality Improvements - The consistent execution of automated tasks boosts accuracy and mitigates risk.
The number of bots needed depends on several factors, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Relevant considerations include:
- Quantity of tasks within each process
- Total processes to automate
- Process complexity
- Expected process throughput
- Business criticality
Our team will evaluate your unique processes firsthand to provide tailored guidance on optimal bot counts. The goal is right-size bot deployment based on your individual automation goals, workload, and infrastructure.
There are two types of bots - one is attended and another is unattended.
Attended bot that requires human interaction to start the process. Humans and software bots can collaborate on the same machine.
Whereas an unattended bot requires no or very little human involvement. This requires a different computer, and the orchestrator will automatically initiate the procedure.
The implementation time is determined by the complexity of the process that is being automated. Low-complexity processes may be up and operating in as little as two weeks, with AIRPA implementation. A more sophisticated procedure will take longer. We also provide staggered deployments, in which we may automate larger operations for you in stages, allowing your business to reap the advantages of automation sooner rather than later.
At initial stages, it is advisable to conduct a thorough analysis and consultation with our RPA experts or implementation experts to understand the specific requirements, timelines, and potential impacts on the IT infrastructure for a successful RPA implementation.
Best candidates we recommend for RPA implementation are data-intensive, repetitive rules based procedures. Robots can operate 24/7. Hence, those processes with continuous volume would benefit the most from automation.
It's a web application for managing, controlling, and monitoring robots. It maintains the security of each deployed robot, measures it, and monitors the bots' performance. It is a very powerful tool.
Industry FAQs
The accounting sector offers a great opportunity for automation. Accounting departments are ideal for exploiting AI and robotic process automation (RPA) technology because they include a large number of routine tasks defined by simple rules and involve repetitive, time-consuming activities.
As the input data is already in digital form, robotic automation tools can seamlessly handle the basic work, allowing skilled accounting professionals to redirect their efforts towards more strategic activities.
