It’s the 21st century. Human civilization has the luxury to do the things that truly matter to us and rely on robots to do all the tedious tasks. Okay… so we’re not quite there yet, but we are now capable of automating routine tasks with digital bots, allowing us to focus on more meaningful and challenging work. This is called RPA, or Robotics Process Automation.

RPA is most effective in business processes that are defined and documented, aren’t complex, and used frequently, such as data entry, reconciliations, data transfer, and report generation across applications and data sources. We’ve identified and built automated solutions for both our clients and internally for Guidehouse – savings thousands of hours, increasing accuracy, and improving workforce job satisfaction and retention.

Below are two of our recent examples:

• RPA for Staffing: We have made our recruiting team’s lives easier; using RPA to perform searches for candidates that match to open jobs at Guidehouse. We’re even using RPA to recruit for RPA Developers!
• RPA for Financial Audit Support: As Guidehouse is an expert in the fields of financial management and audit support we’re often called to process enormous data files within short turnaround times. We’ve implemented RPA programs that downloading documents from websites, cross checking forms for accuracy, and emailing reports to key stakeholders, among other tasks.
