RPA & Intelligent Automation
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and intelligent automation are technologies that involve the use of software robots (or ‘bots’) to automate repetitive, rule-based tasks within business processes.
While RPA focuses on automating routine and structured tasks, intelligent automation takes this a step further by incorporating elements of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to handle more complex and cognitive tasks. Both RPA and intelligent automation help businesses to cut costs, reduce manual effort and ensure consistency in various operational tasks.
Organizations often start with RPA and then progress to more intelligent automation as they seek to automate increasingly sophisticated processes. Check out the resources below to find out how to leverage these tools and ensure successful outcomes.
