Understanding the Intelligent Automation Framework
πΉ The Intelligent Automation (IA) Framework provides a structured approach to implementing automation across various business processes.
πΉ It includes five key work streams to ensure comprehensive value realization:
β 1. Strategy & Planning β Define program objectives, secure funding, and align IA initiatives with business strategy.
β 2. Alignment & Governance β Establish stakeholder management, talent strategy, and compliance policies.
β 3. Process Lifecycle β Identify automation opportunities, conduct process assessments, and optimize workflows.
β 4. Technology Development β Select IA tools, implement agile development, and integrate automation solutions.
β 5. Ongoing Management β Monitor bot performance, manage credentials, and ensure continuous improvement.
π The Power of Intelligent Automation
π‘ Intelligent Automation (IA) extends beyond traditional automation by incorporating advanced cognitive capabilities.
β
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) β Automates structured, rule-based tasks by mimicking human interactions with software.
β
Artificial Intelligence (AI) β Enables machines to learn, analyze data, and make decisions based on complex scenarios.
β
Blockchain β Provides secure, tamper-proof transaction records, enhancing compliance and trust in automation.
