Robotic Process Automation (RPA) Capabilities and Considerations for Enterprise Automation

With constant advances in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and the digital workforce—digital disruption will happen sooner and faster than imagined. There’s a disruptive trend going on in the way work gets done. In the past, companies offshored high-volume back office production and IT operations to take advantage of cheap foreign labor. Today—not so much. Labor costs have trended up, while software-powered digital labor is now cheaper, faster and more productive than those conventional approaches.

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) fundamentally represents a pivot to digital labor—the reinvention of how work gets done. The most successful companies are pivoting from people to software for high-volume, highly transactional manual processes, to take advantage of this emerging digital workforce.

In this episode, Prittam Bagani, Appian’s Director of Product Strategy, discusses why this pivot is so important and the basics of RPA and Enterprise Automation. Zach Messler serves as contributing host.
