Improvement of Business Productivity by Applying Robotic Process Automation

Abstract

Digitalization has been bringing about various changes and innovations not only in our daily life but also in our business environment. In the manufacturing industry, robots have been used for automation for a long time, resulting in innovation in terms of the faster operation process and higher product quality. Robotics Process Automation (RPA) can be said to have brought this innovation in the productivity improvement of many industries into the business office. The purpose of this study is to improve business productivity by applying RPA named CoPA. It is based on Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) and Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) coupled with MS Office. CoPA has been replaced to perform the repetitive patterned tasks (especially document work) done by many people in an office. For the applications of business productivity, CoPA has been implemented to revise five government project proposals requiring quite strict writing standards. The improvement of business productivity obtained by CoPA has been compared to the performance of 10 employees who are familiar with MS Office. The paper explains the method of CoPA coupled with MS Office as well as the agile method of human collaboration. It is clearly shown that CoPA as a business RPA can improve business productivity in terms of time consumption and document quality.

Employing Rpa and Ai to Automize Order Entry Process With Individual and Small-Sized Structures: A Sme Business Case Study

“…Research has revealed positive aspects of the use of RPA and AI tools, citing time reduction, few starting investment and easy implementation (Hindel, Cabrera and Stierle 2020; Flechsig, Anslinger and Lasch 2021), but on the other hand, also the risk that the implementation is time consuming, and prone to errors (Hindel, Cabrera and Stierle 2020; Hyun et al 2021). The fact that robots create errors leads to the fact, that human beings must control their working results after the process is finished.…”

Unlocking AI Adoption in Local Governments: Best Practice Lessons from Smart Cities

“…This refined approach to public engagement and data analysis underscores NLP's pivotal role in modernising and optimising government-citizen interactions (Wang et RPA has become a crucial instrument in streamlining the routine tasks prevalent in local government operations, particularly in the context of implementing digital transformation initiatives within smart city strategies (Sobczak & Ziora, 2021). RPA's ability to automate paperwork and repetitive administrative functions significantly alleviates staff workload (Hyun et al, 2021;Johansson et al, 2022). This automation translates into expedited processing for various administrative processes/governmental affairs procedures, such as license renewals and application processing, enhancing overall service delivery (Ranerup & Henriksen, 2019).…”

“…Additionally, the precision of automated processes reduces the likelihood of errors, ensuring heightened accuracy in data management and regulatory compliance-a vital consideration in government operations where inaccuracies can lead to substantial repercussions (Hyun et al, 2021;Sobczak & Ziora, 2021). Thus, the adoption of NLP and RPA technologies offers local governments a pathway to not only bolster operational efficiency and service quality but also promote government decisions to adapt more responsively to the dynamic needs and expectations of their citizenry, e.g., unbiased decisions, new forms of democratic participation, inclusion of users and improved working conditions for employees (Wirtz & Müller, 2019;Johansson et al, 2022;Hujran, et al, 2023).…”

Improving Software Robot Maintenance in Large-Scale Environments–is Center of Excellence a Solution?

“…In the beginning, the co-occurrence table had 107 codes; after the validation, we had 59 codes, which referred to nineteen papers to answer the questions.
