Inefficiency is one of the current problems faced by many companies and employees.
Some companies even have such a "magic" phenomenon:
The boss and employees are working hard. Almost everyone in the company is very busy and every department is too busy. But in the end, the overall efficiency has not improved much, but has decreased.
Many people will attribute the reason to the "incompetence" of the manager. But in fact, the reasons for inefficiency are diverse. From process to system, from supervision to execution, problems in any link will affect the actual effect.
Inefficiency, is it the manager’s "incompetence" or "too forgiving"?
01
In order to improve efficiency, companies usually have two options.
1
Directly increase manpower
This is the simplest and most direct way. If the business demand is strong and the tasks are numerous, in theory, increasing the manpower can play a certain mitigation effect, which can quickly improve the efficiency of the department and increase the output.
However, the expansion of labor often also adds more labor costs and training burdens to the enterprise.
In addition, when it comes to labor, you have to consider issues such as accuracy and speed. If there is a problem with the process, the company may also have more people and lower efficiency.
2
Deploy a new system
Deploying new resource management systems (such as ERP, CRM, etc.) within the enterprise can improve business processes and increase efficiency. In fact, many enterprises (especially large enterprises) have already deployed corresponding systems internally to realize their digital operations.
However, new systems are usually complicated to implement and have a long upgrade cycle. Often the system has not yet been developed and launched, but the business model has changed. The high implementation cost often discourages some enterprises (especially small and medium-sized enterprises).
How to achieve a certain balance between efficiency, cost and business agility has become a difficult choice question for current enterprises.
Is there no other choice when it comes to reducing costs and increasing efficiency?
02
The emergence and popularization of RPA (Robot Process Automation) technology may provide companies with a third option.
RPA
Simply put, it is a software robot that can simulate human keyboard and mouse operations on the computer and automatically execute tasks according to certain rules. It is especially suitable for handling batch and repetitive tasks (such as Excel, Word batch processing, cross-system data migration, and mail). Automatic sending and receiving, etc.).
RPA has obvious advantages and can balance efficiency and profit to the greatest extent. It is neither error-prone and inefficient like manual labor, nor does it require a large investment and a long cycle like traditional system deployment.
Since RPA is a software or platform based on a user interface that simulates manual operations, it will not affect any original IT structure of the enterprise in terms of deployment. At the same time, it uses software robot processing instead of manual to perform a large number of, repetitive, mechanical tasks without interruption, thereby reducing costs and improving efficiency.
At present, RPA has been widely used in various industries and fields including accounting, finance, insurance, manufacturing, retail, e-commerce, medical care, energy, and communications.
As a technology that has developed significantly, the functions and boundaries of RPA are constantly expanding, and more artificial intelligence technologies such as OCR (optical character recognition), NLP (natural language processing), and ML (machine learning) will be introduced.
03
Affected by the epidemic, the overall market situation in the past year is not optimistic. The opposite is the continued heating up of the RPA market.
RPA's low investment, short construction period, and non-intrusive features just meet the current business needs of enterprises (especially small and medium-sized enterprises), allowing enterprises to achieve business process optimization with minimal investment, increase employee value, and achieve cost reduction and efficiency enhancement.
In particular, departments such as finance and human resources can use RPA to optimize business processes and assist employees to produce more value.
Before choosing an RPA platform, companies should consider relevant evaluation criteria in many aspects, such as ease of use, flexibility, and delivery efficiency. Only in this way can you choose the right robot and experience a more efficient office.
How can more companies and employees enjoy the convenience and efficiency brought by RPA?
The answer is to make RPA as lightweight as possible.
As a one-stop office automation (RPA+AI) service and trading platform for the current domestic RPA industry, UB Store adopts a "short, flat and fast" platform positioning and market strategy to lower application thresholds and allow more companies and employees to enjoy RPA+AI. Smart automation dividends coming.
Lightweight
On the one hand, UB Store reduces the weight of RPA+AI, reduces the application threshold of automated office robots through "shortening the RPA landing cycle, civilian pricing strategy, and quick delivery to get started quickly", rapidly expanding user coverage, and making more people aware The huge market demand behind RPA+AI.
Customization
On the other hand, through customized services to create a "thousand-thousand-thousand-face" RPA+AI solution, UB Store helps companies complete the parts that need to be automated in the business process, reducing costs and increasing efficiency for different departments, and is an efficient man-machine Collaboration provides more protection.
Adhering to the mission of "let robots help everyone", UB Store insists on maximizing the penetration rate of RPA+AI tools, so that more companies and employees can enjoy the convenience and efficiency brought by RPA+AI.
