What RPA stands for
Robotic
An entity which has the capability to mimic the human actions.
Process
A sequence of steps, that lead to a meaningful activity or task is known as a process.
Automation
Tasks happens automatically, i.e. without human intervention.
What do we do?
We help people preserve their laziness. We unleash human creativity by putting robots to perform repetitive, predictibile, high-volume and stable business processes. Thus, people have time to innovate, to create and to value their true potential. Connections can help companies by:
- Peforming process analysis and optimization;
- Delivering RPA implementation;
- Providing Training and Center-of-Excellence set-up support;
- Offering support & maintenance for automated processes.
Processes every company should automate
Automation opportunities are practically everywhere in any organization.
Besides the typical horizontal services, there are other organizational activities that can easily fall under the scope of any automation strategy.
Due to the huge amount of repetitive, often manual, administrative tasks, in the form of filling, capturing data, updating and disseminating a large number of requests and processing, HR is a gold mine of opportunities for automation.
- Data entry;
- Payroll;
- New hires, transfers, exits;
- Time & attendance management;
- Benefits administration;
- Recruitment (back office);
- Compliance and reporting;
- Personnel administration.
Supply chain problems cost companies between 9% – 20% of their value over a period of 6 months. The processes listed are typically well disposed to automation and represent a typical area of improvement to any supply chain operation.
- Inventory management;
- Demand and supply planning;
- Invoice and contact management;
- Work order management;
- Work order management;
- Returns processing;
- Freight management.
With an estimated 30% of time spent on low level tasks, IT is urged to embrace automation as a way to tackle the critical organizational tasks currently consuming most of their time, thus being able to focus on the initiative that reguire innovative thinking.
- Software development;
- Server and app monitoring;
- Routine maintenance and monitoring;
- E-mail processing and distribution;
- Batch processing;
- Password reset/unlock;
- Back-up and restoration.
Finance and Accounting in another area where correctly applied automation can have a significant positive impact in reducing costs, improving efficiency, and streamlining processes.
- Procure to Pay;
- Order to cash;
- Record to report;
- Vendor management;
- Collections;
- Incentive claims;
- Sales order management.
“If you keep throwing technology at a business problem, you will have more technology rather than a solution.“
Phil Fersht, “RPA is dead. Long live Integrated Automation Platforms”, 15 April 2019
What A Software Robot Does
Here are some of the tasks that can be easily handed over to the robots:
- Log in to any applications
- Move files and folders
- Read and write to databases
- Scrape data from the web
- Connect to system API`
- Extract content from documents, pdfs, emails and forms
- open emails and attachments
- Make calculations

What is Intelligent Integrated Automation?
Integrated Automation = Technology + Processes + People
Technology has overpowered the discussion today without adequate focus on people and process.
Triple-A Trifecta (Automation, AI, Analytics) is leveraged by original trifecta – people, process, technology.
