AI and RPA Spectrum

• Traditional systems integration with limited automation through the use of readily available APIs or custom integrations

Integration

• Automation through the use of tools such as robotic process automation (RPA), workflow orchestration or rapid application development tools with some degree of automation capability

Automation

• Artificially intelligent solutions, including cognitive capabilities, pattern recognition, language processing

Intelligence

WHAT IS RPA?

Page 9: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

Robotic process

automation (RPA) is a tool

that creates a digital

workforce to enable

transformation of the

backoffice

Page 10: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

• They’re digital employees

• Takes the robot out of the human

• Does what humans can do, but

arguably shouldn’t

• Frees up humans to do what only

they can do

RPA is a digital workforce

• Business-user friendly

• Self documenting

• Owned by the Business, governed by IT

EXAMPLES

Page 20: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

“The research estimates that the total efficiency

improvement achievable through holistic transformation

using RPA can result in 50-75 percent cost reductions

over baseline.”

“About 60 percent of all occupations have at least

30 percent of constituent activities that could be

automated today.” = $7.5 Trillion of costs in rules

based work….adding the deluge of AI innovation we

will see over the coming years and the number gets

much larger.

“Forrester estimates that, by 2021, there will be over 4

million robots doing office and administrative and sales

and related tasks”

McKinsey

Forrester

RPA is gaining traction in a big

way

error

• Cost millions in BPO fees

The RPA Solution

• Automation of revenue cycle

management, top to bottom

• Automate systems integration

• FTE reduction for manual activities

• 100% accuracy rate

• Billions in claims processed

Page 22: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

The Problem

Accurate financial statements; Monthly close from 45 days to 5

• 30-45 days to process monthly

financials

• Dozens of FTEs focused on

manual finance activities

• IT initiatives to support were

8,000% over budget

The RPA Solution

• Prototype in 90 days

• From 30-45 days to 5

• Eliminated old technology

assets

Typical uses

Double data

entry

simulates user rekeying of data from one system to another; data entry, copying and

pasting

Rule-based

decision-

making

as long as decision matrices can be documented, then RPA can handle them, making

simple rules-based decisions, based on data or criteria, along the business process and

by exception, sending items for decisions by human workers

Preparation of

reports

e.g. for regulatory authorities; automates the extraction of data to provide accurate and

timely reports

Information

validation

reconciles and cross-references data between different systems to validate and inspect

information and provide compliance and auditing outputs

Straight

through

processing

workflow enabled interactions; automatically enters inputs from source systems into

target systems, from trigger to completion

Virtual system

integration

transfers data between disparate and legacy systems by connecting them at the user

interface level instead of implementing new data infrastructure and APIs

Application

migration

migrates application data, records and history as part of an upgrade or migration

project

Page 25: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

Typical uses - IT

Technical debt

management

Minimize or reduce technical debt by bridging gap between systems, preventing

introduction of custom implementations

Product

management

Bridge the gap between IT systems and related portfolio/product management platforms

by enabling the automated updating of both systems

QA Automate quality assurance processes, including regression testing and automating

customer usage scenarios

Data migration Enable automated data migration efforts, especially through systems inaccessible

through traditional mediums, including from spreadsheets or other source data files

ETL Instead of introducing a complex ETL platform (extract, transform, load), enable the

organization to quickly onboard new customers and associated data

Point solution

integration

Enable federation of point solutions (e.g. SaaS) by eliminating complex and costly

integrations with custom APIs through automation

Gap solutions Fill in the gaps with process deficiencies, including simple tasks such as password

resets, synchronization of accounts for SSO, system resets, etc.

Page 26: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

Typical uses - Sales

Sales

operations

Minimize manual updates of systems, production of reports, proposals and adherence

to internal sales processes

Demand

management

Fragmented use of marketing/sales automation systems creates opportunities for RPA

to bridge the gap and create a cohesive ecosystem of demand management tools

Revenue

forecasting

Automate the processing and updating of related financial statements for board

presentations, investors or other stakeholders in the financial performance of the

business

Page 27: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

Typical uses - Finance

Financial

statements

Enable real-time, daily, weekly or monthly financial reporting along with distribution to

appropriate stakeholders. Eliminate multiple entries into different systems and

automated processing of reports

Reconciliation Automatically reconcile bank accounts, expenses along with appropriate journal entries

Compliance Enable greater compliance through having a completely auditable process run within

an RPA solution as opposed to a manual process

Page 28: AI & Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to Digitally Transform Your Environment

Transforming Industries

“Our ultimate goal is to have thousands of robots…”

- Ernst and Young

”The return per robot is around 3 to

6 times the investment…”

- Western Union

“Robotics is the biggest inflection point of the industry

since global sourcing”

- KPMG

Many of Deutsche Bank’s staff are already

working “like robots” and will be replaced by

actual robots, said John Cryan, Deutsche Bank

Robotics is predicted to automate or eliminate up to 40 percent

of transactional accounting work by 2020

Licensing and Implementation

• Most platform licenses on a “Per Robot”

subscription

– Each Robot costs 15%-30% of an FTE

– Each Robot performs work of 3 to 10 FTEs

– ROI on a per-FTE basis exceeds 50-80%

• Implementation can start small, and grow

– Start with 2-3 processes, 2-3 robots

– POC followed by implementation usually 2-4 months

– Continue to scale across processes and departments

• Hosting

– On-premise and cloud options

– Robot-as-a-Service emerging as the trend
