What is Intelligent Process Automation?

Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics with machine learning(ML) and robotic process automation (RPA) to give companies the ability to create and implement dynamic operating models, automate and optimize processes, strengthen operations, and improve the customer experience. Process intelligence delivers insight, enables continuous monitoring, and addresses process inefficiencies, so organizations can identify deviations and errors, inefficiencies, or problems in an automated workflow.

How does Intelligent Process Automation work?

Organizations start by identifying repetitive and rule-based tasks within a workflow process. These tasks can include document processing, inventory, data entry, invoicing, and customer support. Intelligent process automation and AI combine to carefully analyze and understand the components of these tasks, recognize patterns within the task, and then develop intelligent computer algorithms to automate these tasks. IPA can optimize, streamline, and seamlessly integrate into existing processes, improving performance over time

What are the business benefits of Intelligent Process Automation?

  • Optimizes processes for continued efficiency and productivity
  • Allows a company to leverage new technologies to drive innovation
  • Increases productivity by eliminating manual and time-consuming repetitive tasks, which allows employees to focus on activities that provide higher value and satisfaction
  • Improves accuracy by ensuring consistent, error-free execution of tasks and processes, leading to better quality and data accuracy
  • Returns cost savings by reducing operational costs, minimizing manual intervention, eliminating rote and repetitive tasks, and optimizing resources
