Why RPA and Automation Are Critical: Insights from Prolifics

, , , , , , , , ,

What is Robotic Process Automation (RPA)?

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a technology that uses software robots (bots) to automate repetitive, rule-based tasks traditionally performed by human workers. These tasks typically involve:

  • Interacting with digital systems
  • Performing data entry
  • Processing transactions
  • Managing workflows
  • Responding to customer queries

Key benefits of RPA include:

  • Seamlessly bridging legacy systems
  • Effortlessly closing integration gaps
  • Integrating legacy systems without altering existing technology investments

According to the Deloitte Global RPA Survey, RPA continues to exceed expectations across multiple dimensions:

  • Improved compliance: 92%
  • Improved quality/accuracy: 90%
  • Improved productivity: 86%
  • Cost reduction: 59%

RPA solutions are a key driver of business process automation. They are easy to implement and scale, making them attractive across industries. Businesses leverage RPA to:

  • Streamline processes
  • Reduce costs
  • Enhance productivity
  • Free human workers for strategic activities

Industries adopting RPA include banking, healthcare, finance, manufacturing, and retail, aiming to reduce operational costs, improve accuracy, and increase efficiency.

Emerging RPA Trends to Watch in 2025

RPA technology is evolving rapidly. Here are the key trends shaping the future of automation:

Hyper Automation

Hyper Automation extends RPA by integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and cognitive automation. Unlike traditional RPA that automates rule-based tasks, hyper-automation handles complex decision-making processes. It combines tools, platforms, and techniques to automate as much of a business as possible, driving greater efficiency and innovation.

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

NLP enables machines to understand, interpret, and generate human language. By integrating NLP with RPA, businesses can automate processes involving unstructured data, such as:

  • Customer emails
  • Documents
  • Chat messages

This allows automation of tasks that previously required human interpretation of text, voice commands, and natural language inputs.

Low-Code and No-Code RPA

Low-code and no-code platforms empower users with little or no programming knowledge to build and deploy RPA bots. Benefits include:

  • Democratizing automation development
  • Enabling collaboration between business users, subject matter experts, and IT teams
  • Scaling automation efficiently

Collaborative RPA

Also called “attended automation,” collaborative RPA combines human workers and bots to perform tasks together. While traditional RPA works independently (unattended), collaborative RPA assists employees by automating parts of their workflow in real-time, allowing humans to focus on higher-value tasks.

Cloud-Based RPA Solutions

Cloud-based RPA is increasingly popular due to scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. Advantages include:

  • Reduced infrastructure investment
  • Faster deployment
  • Remote collaboration support

Industry-Specific RPA

Industry-specific RPA solutions address the unique needs and regulatory requirements of various sectors, providing precise automation in industries like finance, healthcare, and manufacturing.

What is Application Modernization? 

Business Application modernization refers to updating legacy applications to newer frameworks, architectures, and technologies to align them with current business needs and technical standards. As organizations strive for agility, scalability, and efficiency, modernizing applications is no longer an option but a necessity. It enables businesses to adapt quickly to evolving market demands, leverage cutting-edge technologies, and enhance user experiences. 

This process may include migrating on-premises applications to the cloud, refactoring code for better performance, integrating modern APIs, or reimagining the app to leverage emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). Modernization ensures that organizations can maintain their competitive edge while optimizing operational costs. 

Modern businesses face increasing pressure to modernize their applications, streamline operations, and stay ahead of disruptive trends. Prolifics’ comprehensive business application modernization approach ensures businesses achieve these goals with minimal disruption and maximum efficiency.
