What is RPA?
Companies that successfully implement RPA can increase their operational efficiency by up to 80%.
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a technology that aims to automate manual and repetitive tasks and business processes through the use of software robots.
The infrastructure of the existing systems is not changed, but existing applications such as ERP, CRM, HRM systems and office applications are automated.
In principle, all activities that a person performs on a computer can be automated. The question we can answer together with you is which processes should be automated.
What advantages does RPA offer?
Reduction of process costs
By automating manual tasks, companies can save on labor costs as less human labor is required. RPA robots can work 24/7 and do not require breaks or vacations, further reducing labor costs.
Reduction of throughput times
RPA robots can perform tasks faster and without breaks, which increases efficiency and shortens process times. This leads to higher productivity and faster work results.
Reduction of errors
RPA robots are usually more precise than humans when it comes to performing tasks that follow clear rules and require high accuracy. This reduces errors that can lead to rework, delays and additional costs.
Examples of activities that are automated

The challenge of successfully using RPA
Identification of suitable processes
Companies need to carefully evaluate which business processes are best suited for automation with RPA. Ideally, processes should be repetitive, rule-based and with little human interaction. Identifying the right processes is critical to the success of RPA initiatives.
Automation strategy
Automation strategy
A well-thought-out RPA strategy helps to overcome the challenges and fully exploit the benefits of automation. Here are some important aspects that should be considered when developing an RPA strategy. For example, a clear goal, organizational structure, roles and responsibilities and the right tool selection.
Change management
Change management
The introduction of RPA can lead to organizational change, as employees may fear that their jobs are at risk due to automation. Companies need to be proactive about change management to address concerns and encourage adoption of RPA technology.
Scaling the initiative
Companies that want to successfully implement RPA need to be able to scale their automation initiatives. Scaling issues can arise when companies try to integrate a larger number of RPA bots into their business processes, especially if they encounter bottlenecks in their IT infrastructure or process design.
