One of the biggest archenemies to productivity is the tedious, repetitive task. Although such tasks may be vital, they can soak up hours of precious time that could be better spent focused on accelerating business goals.<\/p>\n\n
Consider the status report. Employees can rack up hours every month chasing down metrics, updates, and other information to keep stakeholders informed. Not only can status updates pose a massive time suck that diverts them from business priorities, the information quickly goes stale\u2014unlike a dashboard that uses intelligent technologies to automatically analyze data for real-time monitoring.<\/p>\n\n
Of course, productivity isn\u2019t the only advantage of business process automation. Organizations that automate can reduce human error and increase speed and quality of services while driving a far better customer experience. In fact, by 2024 Gartner<\/a> predicts that organizations will shrink operational costs by 30% through the combination of hyper-automation technologies and redesigned operational processes.<\/p>\n\n In this article, we\u2019ll share some guidance for uncovering intelligent automation opportunities and how Beyondsoft customers have used artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and smart analytics to eliminate manual business processes and drive productivity and profitability.<\/p>\n\n When looking for opportunities to automate, start by compiling a list of tasks done frequently or on a schedule and then determining if those tasks are a good fit for automation. Manual, time-consuming tasks that occur with significant frequency may be good automation candidates. Additionally, automation candidates:<\/p>\n\n Once you have your list of automation candidates, it\u2019s time to evaluate candidates based on complexity, including scope and size and the time savings gained through automation. Look for candidates with higher value and lower complexity. These opportunities will help you realize a greater return on your investment than lower value, higher complexity candidates.<\/p>\n\n After narrowing your list of automation candidates, it\u2019s time to prioritize. Look at measuring overall value of automation based on granular criteria such as:<\/p>\n\n Once you\u2019ve got your list of candidates, work with a partner like Beyondsoft that has deep expertise in intelligent business process automation to bring your ideas to fruition. Below are a few examples of how Beyondsoft has helped other companies solve problems through intelligent automation.<\/p>\n\n The ability to derive insights from big data is a competitive differentiator in the world of ecommerce. But without AI and machine learning capabilities, analyzing data for customer segmentation, dynamic pricing, inventory management, and forecasting is highly manual and incomplete at best.<\/p>\n\n By leveraging machine learning as a service (MLaaS) from Beyondsoft, two ecommerce companies were able to automate predictive insights<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n Microsoft\u2019s Customer Service and Support (CSS) business runs 100+ call centers around the world for their consumer products. They were relying primarily on manual processes to monitor 50% of the calls. They needed an intelligent solution to scale monitoring without expanding headcount.<\/p>\n\nUncovering opportunities for intelligent automation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n
