Things to be kept in mind for identifying a relevant RPA use case:
- Start small and be realistic
-
Identify process that is:
- Highly-repetitive
- Highly manual
- Too many FTEs required
- Information intensive activity
- Copying, pasting and validating data between systems, portals, application, pdf/excel files etc.
- Rigorous keystrokes and mouse clicks
- Hopping between applications
- Any mind-numbing office task that kills time and energy
- Focus on generating benefits early
Criteria for selecting an eligible RPA process
Use Automation Frameworks to Calculate Automatability Index, Complexities & Business Impact
