The post-Covid-19 era is showcasing a rise in competition among MNCs. Businesses are trying to keep pace with competition by incorporating automation.
Intelligent automation (IA) technology is a combination of two different technologies, robotics and artificial intelligence (AI). In addition, other collaborating technologies that come under the umbrella of intelligent automation (IA) are robotic process automation (RPA) and business process management (BPM). IA revolves around technologies like data analytics, hyper-automation, intelligent character recognition (ICR), optical character recognition (OCR), mining process, intelligent process automation (IPA), and other end-to-end processes.
The utilization of advanced IA technologies is helping organizations to reduce dependencies on labor-intensive processes and ease the functioning of business processes. During the pandemic, many organizations experienced a shortage of labor just because of the life safety concerns of the workforce. Tech solutions enable organizations to bring automation and reduce dependencies on labor-intensive processes.
“Applying IA technology in business operations has showcased the benefits, and growth of the organization”
Components of Intelligent Automation
Firstly, intelligent automation includes artificial intelligence (AI) components like complex algorithms, to analyze structured and unstructured data. All these algorithms help to assess data outcomes and formulate results. Those results shed light on the loopholes in the business development process. AI and machine learning-based algorithms assist in smooth decision-making processes in any organization.
Secondly, business process management (BPM) is the most important component of IA. BPM helps manage workflow automation. Automation brings agility, efficiency, and consistency to work. BPM is used in various industries to streamline work operations and enhance employee engagement improving business processes.
Thirdly, robotic process automation (RPA) is another crucial component of IA. RPA involves bots to accomplish tasks. These tasks are automated and help in the extraction of data. RPA brings artificial intelligence to handle critical tasks and uses cases. This software technology is easy to install, operate, and manage.
Benefits of Intelligent Automation
Intelligent automation like robotics & AI bots enhances the productivity of the organization. Self-learning and employee skill development processes revolve around this technology that strengthens an organization’s daily business operations. Applying IA technology in business operations has showcased the benefits & growth of the organization. This technology is changing the approach to the working patterns of organizations.
Furthermore, IA technological solutions are equipped to handle large amounts of data, solve complex problems, analyze big data, and implement advanced business processes. IA helps in the easy segregation of data and analyzing it faster by running various algorithms based on machine learning. Intelligent automation technology is currently used in various industrial operations and is widening its horizon across different industries with time.
Robotic solutions help in reskilling employees and anticipating them to overcome their challenges. The optimum use of IA has led to a transformation in the business value chains and enhanced business functioning. For example, IA provides better customer assistance to gain a competitive advantage. It’s vital for businesses that produce essential items in industries like computers, appliances, autos, heavy trucks, HVAC systems, and industrial power equipment.
Additionally, IA is helping in segments like machine vision, speech recognition, natural language processing, machine learning, and autonomics technologies. Significantly, IA processes interpret facts that help in decision-making and bringing changes in the organizational structure. Intelligent automation technology is emerging quickly and replacing various labor-intensive work practices for more sustainable business operations.
Way forward
Post COVID-19 world has observed multiple changes in the business functioning and use of technology. Intelligent automation (IA) has brought revolutionary changes in the business processes such as fast processing, improved functioning, and increased accuracy. Technology offers significant benefits for businesses like time-saving, high efficiency, better outcomes, and speeds up tasks. All these benefits are essential for any organization to sustain itself in this competitive era.
