Introduction
In an industry where efficiency, precision, and timeliness are the name of the game, it’s no surprise that manufacturing companies are increasingly turning to Robotic Process Automation (RPA). Whether streamlining the supply chain or ensuring quality control, RPA is poised to be a game-changer. According to Deloitte, companies implementing RPA see a return on investment within 12 months. But what exactly is RPA, and how does it fit into the manufacturing environment?
What is RPA?
Robotic Process Automation involves using bots or software to perform repetitive, rule-based tasks in a business. These bots can handle everything from data entry to complex analysis, freeing up your human workforce to focus on more strategic, value-added activities.
