RPA DELIVERY APPROACH
Initiation and Planning
- Identify the business processes which qualifies for automation ( including complexity, feasibility)- RPA Questionnaire
- Arrive at size, business benefits, ROI using Sizing and ROI Calculator
- Establish the success criteria, prioritize the use cases
- Conduct Workshop with key stakeholders
- Provide a quote, RFP, Proposal,and obtain Go ahead
Process Detailing and RPA Design
- Document the current business state of the identified processes/use case (PDD)
- Identify the interfaces and systems with which bot will have to interact
- Identify the handshake mechanism
- Solution and Design the Bot approach for the detailed business processes/use cases (SDD – Use Robotic Enterprise Framework)
RPA Engineering
- Program the workflows of the use case using RPA Tool
