How can we unlock full human potential?

How can we unlock full human potential?

According to McKinsey & Co.’s report, 50% of activities for which people receive a salary can be automated. Doing so can lower costs, reduce risk, improve efficiency, and support regulatory compliance. Implementing robotic process automation is the only way to remain competitive in 2021 and beyond.

Does this mean that robots will replace people?

Edyta Pietak, Chief Strategy Officer, AnyRobot: Yes and no. RPA (robotic process automation) allows for the faster, more accurate completion of boring, repetitive tasks. But there are other, more analytical in creative tasks more suited to the way human brains work. RPA is most useful where it can support human employees by improving their efficiency, giving them more time to focus on what they do best.

Lukasz Chojnowski, Chief Executive Officer, AnyRobot: It’s a completely new way of thinking about work. The team can focus on activities that bring real business value - for example building relationships with partners or clients, or making strategic decisions - while robots take care of repetitive jobs.

When is the right time to invest in RPA? And how should it be done?

LC: The sooner, the better. The competition is either already doing it or about to start. The benefits of implementing RPA are much broader than just lowered operational costs. They include: happier employees, better organized processes, a higher business predictability, and more time for completing value-driven tasks. Implementation can begin at any time. All a company needs to do in preparation is identify the processes that should be automated first - that is, the ones for which automation will bring the best results. After that, all it takes is applying for a free demo on our website.

What do AnyRobot’s clients think?

EP: They appreciate the fact that robots are immune to human error and help minimize risk. One of our implementations involves delivering 145 mln of packages and 30% of online shopping orders in Poland. It’s clear proof that RPA can be trusted, regardless of the scope of a company’s operations. In fact, RPA tends to bring the most value to processes that involve high volumes of data.

It sounds like a serious investment. How long does it take to implement RPA?

EP: AnyRobot helps businesses save hundreds of work hours after just one day of implementation. Our fastest project lasted only 24 hours, counting from the moment the client filled in the form on our website, to the first RPA-generated results. This sort of speed is possible thanks to our library of pre-created tasks and processes which can be quickly set up in a client’s infrastructure.
