Systems from ERP to manufacturing and warehouse management challenge conventional information flows as much as they rely on them. Companies with an automation ambition find the potential for efficiencies whether they move material or manufacture it. Applying smart automation solutions allows companies to focus on core expertise while reducing costs and increase timeliness, accuracy, and flexibility.
Robotic Process Automation for Manufacturing
Automation Topics
BILL OF MATERIALS
Bill of Materials (BOM) has a wide list of raw materials, components, sub-components, and other products production. Here, data accuracy is key and by using RPA in this section, companies can create the product much faster as well as better data accuracy.
ADMINISTRATION & REPORTING
Implementing RPA in the administration department will help the industry to get reports of their production and all other work in their business as fast and as accurate as possible.
DATA MIGRATION
When a company must move data from an old system to a new system, it often takes a lot of time and costs to do so. With proper planning and execution of RPA, companies will be able to reduce the time and cost of moving, and also secure old data or policies in a sufficient way.
ERP AUTOMATION
Reports like inventory, accounts payable and receivable, pricing and more which are automatically generated can be further automated using RPA. This frees up the capacity of employees who had to handle the final steps of these mediocre processes.

"The Manufacturing industry has been for long the early adopters of robotics to perform daily activities in the manufacturing plant. Recently, the industry took to adopting RPA in their back-office processes too, which can empower the enterprise to attain around 40 percent cost savings in their various process of work."
