    Process optimisation
    Manual processes that require a lot of employee effort and oversight, are redesigned in a way that the process becomes efficient, self-adaptive and can adjust to new organisational requirements.

Intelligent automation spectrum

Intelligent automation will allow you to switch from rule-based automation to judgement-based evolving processes. The implementation of intelligent automation has a spectrum:

Business Impact

1. Manual processes

Traditional business process management (i.e., Excel macros, batch processing and BPMN)

2. Robotic process automation

Some processes are automated using rules over structured data with a reduction in human supervision

3. Machine-based process execution

Core processes automated using machine learning decision engines

4. Intelligence-driven organisation

Decision engines use deductive analytics, processes learn from human decisions
