Robotic Process Automation

Advances in RPA (Robotic Process Automation) technology have made it possible to automate tasks previously performed by humans with software programmed robots. As with any normal system development, it is not easy to develop RPA Systems. It is necessary to determine the scope of automation within the entire business, determine the requirements for each business, and design, develop, and test robots. In addition, in the case of full-scale introduction to the whole company, maintenance of the robot will be difficult if the method of developing and operating the robot is not standardized.
