For many companies, unprecedented change is taking place, from greater acceptance of remote work to investments in technology that can help an organization be more efficient.<\/p>\n
One of those technologies \u201ctaking the world by storm\u201d is Robotic Process Automation<\/a> (RPA). RPA takes routine, repeatable and rules-based processes and automates them, replacing a human actor with a digital worker, so the human actor can focus on more value-add activities.<\/p>\n Many organizations that begin their RPA journey are not as successful because they do not take the time needed upfront to review and assess processes that are viable for automation. They feel everything can or should be automated without determining return on investment (ROI) versus cost to build and maintain (in addition to licensing costs for the software). As we like to say, \u201cautomating a bad or non-viable process just gets you the same bad results faster.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Over the course of four blogs, we will walk you through those areas that you should address as part of your RPA intake and analysis process. We will begin with Analysis and Ideation, followed by Feasibility and Priority, Discover and Document, and finally, Design and Approval.<\/p>\n Our four-part series will cover the following:<\/p>\n Analysis and Ideation<\/a> —<\/strong>\u00a0In part one, you\u2019ll learn how to start small with one team or department. You\u2019ll also start on your process intake methodology so that you can find the best process ripe for automation.<\/p>\n Feasibility and Priority<\/a> —<\/strong>\u00a0We\u2019ll cover why you need to establish a scoring template for choosing processes in part two. We also examine how to prioritize processes for automation, and a bonus in this phase: discovering processes that need optimization.<\/p>\nRead the Blog Series:<\/h2>\n
