2AutomateAnything (2AA) offers you everything needed for your digital transformation journey!
Businesses today highly demand efficiency. One of the ideal ways to make companies efficient is by adopting Robotic Process Automation (RPA) into business functions. RPA tools offer many benefits like saving time, improving accuracy, consistency, and reducing human error. It helps primarily business perform processes easily and effectively without changing applications, business systems, or existing processes.
“Robotic” in RPA describes repetitive nature of work; “Process” refers to the sequence of steps involving in performing the task, and "Automation" is making work happen on its own. This Automation can be repeated to free the human workforce to focus on other higher-level activities.
In simple terms - RPA can be defined as the Automation of work using digital robots. To expand it further - RPA is the technology that allows computer software to mimic actions typically performed by humans interacting with digital systems to execute business processes.
Many organizations are using RPA to increase efficiencies and reduce costs. It helps automate repetitive computer-based tasks and processes across various industries and applications. Some sectors that use RPA are insurance, banking, healthcare, manufacturing, etc.
RPA helps to minimize human error, speed up the process, optimize the workflows and reduce the costs of an organization.
RPA is widely used in call center operations mainly to serve customer requests. When an issue is handled by human customer service agents, RPA helps consolidate all details about the customer on a single screen, where the agents have all information, they need from multiple systems to provide excellent service. This will eventually increase the customer satisfaction of the company as well as bring the Average Handling Time (AHT) to significantly increase the profit of the company.
