The Right Hyperautomation Services Provider Can Transform Work Processes and Enable Growth
September 10, 2024
Automate everything you can. That’s a simple definition of hyperautomation, but it belies the challenges of adopting this strategy in complex environments of rapid growth or change — exactly the settings where it is often most needed and most beneficial. Hyperautomation is a strategy to automate everything across the enterprise and addresses the inefficiency of manual processes and legacy infrastructures.
Businesses completing mergers and acquisitions, for example, must integrate disparate technology infrastructures and streamline processes across companies. High-growth organizations have to control costs across business lines without compromising quality or innovation. Today’s highly competitive landscape is pressuring every business to develop strategies that allow them to retain their knowledge workers, continually improve the customer experience and increase customer loyalty. With advanced tools that enable digital integration, tracking, analytics and personalization at scale, hyperautomation can be the differentiator they’re looking for.
The problem is that few companies possess the breadth and depth of in-house resources required to take on the heavy lifting of hyperautomation. You need access to and proficiency in sophisticated technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and robotic process automation (RPA). You need experts in risk analysis, digital-technology integration, application customization, hyperpersonalization, predictive analytics and much more.
The good news is that service providers can help. In the arena of hyperautomation, experienced business process outsourcing service providers offer a kind of “white-glove” service to these companies by combining the best of both traditional and specialist providers. Such organizations often bring decades of expertise across industries and enterprise business processes, as well as the latest hyperautomation-specific tools, plus processes and knowledge services they’ve developed in conjunction with delivery of digital-transformation solutions.
No two companies are alike. Even if, for example, you’re using the same employment Form I-9 that every other business uses, it’s almost guaranteed that you’re intaking and using the data differently than other companies. A prebuilt niche tool that promises a 99% solution will likely require you to modify your current processes or give up functionality. In contrast, Canon Business Process Services offers hyperautomation services that employ an 80-20 model. By taking advantage of prebuilt elements and reusable components, Canon Business Process Services is able to focus an average of 20% of solution resources on customization to collect and manage your data to your exact specifications.
