UiPath partnership will enable business transformation through reduced integration overheads, rapid ROI, and elimination of manual processes
Publicis.Sapient, part of Publicis Groupe and an advanced digital transformation company, announced a new partnership with leading robotic process automation (RPA) provider UiPath.
With decades of mergers, acquisitions and IT investments, and siloed infrastructures, firms are struggling to evolve their operations to become more client-centric and react to rapidly changing market forces, driven by new technologies, enhanced client and consumer expectations.
Numerous challenges have emerged, including incomplete upstream data feeds and a lack of interoperability between core systems, leading to multiple workarounds and manual processes that increase cost and risk of error.
As a result, firms dedicate significant amounts of labour to perform repetitive, rule-based efforts, such as managing exceptions.
As multiple industries transition to a digital world, RPA will become an inherent part of any digital roadmap.
The agency’s consulting, technology and industry knowledge will enable these firms to transform their operations by implementing and deploying UiPath’s proven end-to-end, intelligent automation platform.
UiPath’s RPA platform automates those repetitive duties through a business-owned, IT-supported digital workforce that allows operations staff to be re-focused on more strategic and value-added tasks.
The agency’s methodology for RPA delivers market-leading results, including time to business value, transparency into KPI’s for business executives, security, manageability and architectural integration for CIO’s.
This helps each client fully realise the efficiency and cost benefits that highly scalable, robotic workforces automating manual process and workflows can deliver.
The collaboration has already seen successful implementations for processing and managing unstructured data for financial services and energy firms, including large integrated oil majors to midstream and fuel retailers.
The two firms have also delivered a logistics project using RPA to reduce the time taken to perform tasks and improve safety through regular, automated audits.
“RPA is becoming a major enterprise enabler in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of an organisation’s operations and service delivery, and as a foundation for digital transformation. We are excited to partner with UiPath to offer intelligent automation capabilities to our clients.
“Where the application of RPA becomes interesting is when it is combined with more advanced, cognitive artificial intelligence tools to deliver intelligent process automation. We are developing these tools to deliver processes with pre-programmed functions, offering the potential to make autonomous decisions using a sophisticated rules engine based on learning algorithms,” said Rashed Haq, Global Lead for AI, Data and Robotics, at Publicis.Sapient.
“We have seen RPA drive significant process improvements for organisations in the financial services, energy and commodities sectors. By taking on time-intensive tasks, like data entry, RPA empowers organisations to more effectively tackle operations – driving faster, better decisions that support their core missions.
“Through our partnership with the agency, we are positioned to help more organisations utilise RPA to digitally transform and operate in a more strategic, sophisticated way,” said Ashim Gupta, Chief Customer Success Officer, UiPath.
