RPA Enables Work From Home

RPA Enables Work From Home

As RPA automates processes, streamlines workflows, and seamlessly connects with IT systems, the need for humans to intervene reduces drastically.

Most of the labor-intensive and high-volume tasks can be taken over by robots that start and complete tasks with little intervention. This paves way for work from home opportunities, which studies have shown to spur creativity and innovation.

Using Cognitive RPA for Document Processing

Automation of less structured content requires more advanced robots that can understand natural language, process unstructured data, recognize patterns, and teach themselves to handle different cases. Cognitive technologies when integrated with rule-based automation delivers powerful robots capable of mimicking human activities.

Blending technologies such as machine learning, natural language processing, computer vision, optical character recognition (OCR), and big data analytics, we can build you solutions for automating sales order processing, invoice processing, claims handling, loan/mortgage processing, or customer onboarding.

Customer Onboarding

In the financial services sector, regulatory compliance requires banks and other organizations to collect different types of official documents from customers for various services. Customer due diligence (CDD) is a critical onboarding process that helps banks assess the risk of new customers. Verification of the KYC (know your customer) documents is a cumbersome process when done manually as the daily numbers at a single branch can be in hundreds.

An RPA tool with optical character recognition (OCR) engine can be used to extract data from KYC documents and verify it against prescribed regulations. Automating the process reduces onboarding delays and improves the customer experience while ensuring compliance with rules.

Automation Workflow for Customer Onboarding

Insurance Underwriting

RPA software can be used to collate data from disparate sources into a common place allowing underwriters to make a decision on the applicant’s policy eligibility. For instance, underwriters at auto insurance companies need to check for each applicant’s criminal history and motor vehicle-related accidents. They may also check with other insurers on the vehicle’s previous insurance claims.

In case of life insurance, factors affecting risk include medical history, family details, and personal activities. Accuracy and speed of risk profiling can be improved significantly by using automated tools to collect medical and social media data. Applying predictive modeling using machine learning algorithms, risk scoring can be refined. Artificial intelligence can also be applied to dynamically alter insurance pricing based on customer behavior.

How RPA Solutions Work

With only surface-level automation, RPA is often considered a cost-effective alternative to enterprise application integration (EAI). RPA tools interact with legacy systems in a non-invasive manner. They access applications through the user interface just like human operators and can be deployed without disruption to the core platform.

RPA platforms record the actions of a business user and generate executable scripts to carry out the same action. Alternatively, they provide graphical tools to create bots that can be used by business users and software developers alike.

Implementing RPA in Your Enterprise—GIADA Approach

Implementing RPA

Successful robotic automation requires careful planning and implementation. Your RPA journey should begin with a study of the various processes in your enterprise. The exercise helps to capture undocumented processes and build a knowledge repository.

Once the processes to be automated are identified, process and automation experts can come together to determine the degree of automation possible. Some processes may need to be redesigned to maximize automation opportunities. The goal is to map the As-Is process flow to a To-Be workflow, which has minimum manual intervention and maximum automation. With an automation model customized to your needs, you can start implementing your RPA solution.

Activities in Enterprise RPA Implementation

Gather Identify Architect Develop & Deploy Analyze
Process mining and building of process repository As-Is to To-Be workflow mapping Solution design Automation and testing Benefit tracking
RPA opportunity assessment High-level implementation plan Technical design document Defect management and deployment Daily transaction execution report
Installation and configuration Incident / change management report

Scaling the RPA Implementation

To deploy RPA across the organization and derive value, enterprises need a dedicated Center of Excellence (CoE). The RPA CoE will drive the automation initiative overseeing aspects such as organization, governance, technology, processes, and operations.

Once the RPA initiative has been accepted as an enterprise-wide strategy, you will need to identify someone to champion the cause and drive the implementation ensuring a healthy pipeline for automation. Process experts can act as RPA Business Analysts to identify and map processes.

The RPA Solution Architect will help choose the automation tool and design the technical solution integrating it with other areas of your enterprise. RPA developers will build automation workflows for processes identified and test the solution. The deployment team will be in charge of installation, configuration, continuous monitoring, and troubleshooting.

FAQ

What processes are best suited for robotic automation?

Identifying the right processes is the first step towards a successful RPA implementation. Here are the common characteristics that help to pick jobs for automation:

Repetitive and consistent

Robotic automation can be applied to rote tasks that follow defined steps. The tasks are recurrent and do not deviate from the set pattern, making them easy for robots to perform.

High-volume and time-consuming

Back-office tasks that require a lot of time investment due to their sheer volume warrant automation, no doubt.

Should we go with RPA or BPM?

The short answer is it does not have to be an “either-or” case. Robotic process automation, like BPM, is one of the multiple tools for enterprise automation. During the investigative phase, you might identify many processes that can benefit from automation. There could be processes that need to be re-engineered before automating to produce maximum efficiency.

Is RPA for small enterprises?

Absolutely! Small businesses focus on keeping operations lean with limited staff. While technology can seem like a huge investment, robotic process automation allows small businesses to scale up and compete with bigger enterprises at a fraction of the cost associated with hiring new employees.

What are the benefits of RPA implementation?

Scalability and improved quality with reduction in cost are the most significant results of robotic automation. Some of the other outcomes include:

Morale boost

Bots taking on mundane tasks free up human intelligence for more creative and value-added activities. Employees feel more appreciated and productive.

Improved efficiency

RPA provides a lot of data about its processes. A business can use that information to improve workflows for efficiency.

What is the role of process mining tools in RPA implementation?

RPA projects are more likely to succeed with process mining. Process mining tools help capture the steps taken to complete a task (As-Is process). They also help in identifying bottlenecks and inefficiencies within a process. In short, process mining serves as a guide for automation highlighting the best candidates for RPA.

Will RPA implementation compromise data security and compliance?

Most enterprise-grade RPA platforms deliver automation with built-in security. Tools, such as Jiffy, help you meet security and compliance requirements with role-based access control (RBAC), secure credential management, and comprehensive audit trail.
