This document discusses the need for improved office automation and introduces robotic process automation (RPA) as a solution. It notes that while other areas have seen large productivity increases, office productivity has improved only modestly. RPA can automate many repetitive tasks currently performed by humans, such as data entry, form filling, and information aggregation. This would free up workers' time and reduce costs compared to existing alternatives. The document outlines challenges with current approaches and how RPA is different in being able to mimic human tasks without fundamentally changing processes.
This is an article published by Mason Alexander of NDMC Consulting that provides a simple explanation of what Robotic Proces Automation (RPA) is and why it's expected to be a game changer in knowledge worker productivity.

Robotic Process Automation End-to-End Implementation RoadmapChazey Partners
RPA is a software solution, commonly referred to as “bots”, which mimic or automate tasks normally performed by humans interacting with data between systems. In common definitions RPA essentially comes down to removing human beings from operations that are repetitive evaluations requiring rules based decision criteria. Whereas automation addresses high volume repetitive tasks, RPA is the next step to include decision making under a controlled set of parameters. Like with other transformations, business leaders should adopt a structured framework with clear, tangible benefits and correctly defined expectations before embarking on an RPA journey. This Robotic Process Automation handbook offers you a clear, structured framework with which to launch and implement your RPA program. It ensures the technology is integrated well within existing systems and business operations and empowers your business to be future ready with dynamic adjustment of processes along your automation journey.

How to get RPA initiative work beyond proof of concept?Abhinav Singhal
Global RPA market grew by 63% in 2018 and is expected to
reach USD 1.3 billion in 2019. Telecom and IT sector
being the biggest adopter, followed by the banking,
financial services, and insurance industries, and retail
and consumer goods.
However, as companies try to scale beyond the
proof of concept the momentum starts decreasing.
Installing hundreds of bots takes a lot longer and is
more complex than the initial pilot. It introduces an
additional architecture layer into the system, requiring
more governance, security, and oversight by the IT
organization, already burdened with maintaining legacy
systems. The economic outcomes often aren’t as rosy as
originally projected. While it may be possible to automate
30 percent of tasks for the majority of occupations, that
doesn’t neatly translate into a 30 percent cost reduction.
People do many different things, and bots may only
address some of them. Unless the process and the organization are also aligned true efficiencies don’t kick in. Also, asking
operators to program bots that could take their jobs can understandably create high resistance at the front line.
As a result, several programs get put on hold beyond the pilot stage. So, what is the recipe for a successful rollout and
implementation?

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

People today blend how they spend their time
like never before… when they work, when they
choose to learn, play …and socialize.
They work on the move, check business emails into
the evenings and on weekends.
But in return they expect to access their social
apps and communities during work time and be
permitted to use their own mobile devices at work
as at home.

Valuations have less to do with the physical
assets a business has and focus more on soft
assets like the size of online communities, the
data assets organizations hold… and the ability of a
business to convert ‘clicks to cash’.
Companies can scale faster, thanks to cloud
computing, and reach larger audiences thanks to
the worldwide-web and mobile computing.

A long-tail of demand exists for technology-led
solutions that displace the myriad of low-level
manual data handling and processing tasks that
employers still call on their workforce to fulfil.
According to research, around 60% of
occupations could have 30% more of
their constituent activities automated
Translated proportionately in time, it means each
member of your team working a 37.5 hour week
could be spending as much as 45-hours a month
on things they don’t really want to be doing
because these tasks take time away from their
primary role – and impact on their quality of life.

Failing to automate these light-weight data handling
and processing tasks is not a victimless crime.
Lots of people have to work with data. These
mundane tasks put people under pressure to
work late, eat at their desks, multi-task…
...and they spend less time on the things that really
matter to their employer.

It would be easy to assume that sub-optimal
automation of data processing only impacts low-level
clerical roles but that’s not the case. Whilst these
roles typically perform more data entry and processing
tasks, the impact of automation goes much further.
In fact, analysis by McKinsey & Co. suggests that
even CEOs could release up to 20% of their capacity
through automation.

The wasteful office
Use of desktop office applications
and hard-copy documents is both
unproductive and wasteful.
• The average spreadsheet or word-processed document is read
less than 5-times in its life.
• Relying on hard-copy documents to bridge between the weak
points in processes increases paper waste.
• Use of paper increases demands for storage and space – i.e.
filing cabinets, rooms dedicated to archival.
• It places further demands on resources – such as having to
scan hard-copy documents to electronic files.

Security of data has become a board-room
issue.
Use of office documents and self-authored applications results
in a proliferation of content in mobile computing devices,
memory sticks, desktop drives and intranet content
management systems.
Recently, this proliferation of so-called shadow data has
worsened with the growth in use of mobile and software-as-a-
service (SaaS) cloud based applications; many of which are
used without the knowledge or consent of IT.
Much of this content is invisible to IT administrators who are
unaware of the applications, files or data held within them.
Cloud security developer Elastica’s vice-president Eric Andrews
says the company’s threat team analyzed 63 million
documents stored by its customers in 2015, looking for shadow
data threats.

exists somewhere else in the company and they can’t
find it.
• 42% say they accidentally use the wrong information
at least once a week, and 53 percent said that less
than half of the information they receive is valuable.
• 45% say gathering information about what other parts
of their company are doing is a big challenge.
• More than half have to go to numerous sources to

• Moreover, nearly half of the global respondents said
their lack of confidence stems from a lack of information
or easy access to data. The findings are puzzling given
the emergence of big data techniques, the proliferation
of global networks and the sheer processing power
contained even in mobile devices.
• One reason for the disconnect between big data and
decision making, the Harvard researchers found, is that
“silos of data, typically imprisoned in customer, financial,
or production systems, are frequently inaccessible by
individuals outside the functional group.”
• In this regard, 43% of survey respondents said
important external or internal data was missing, 42%
said data was inaccurate or obsolete, and 33% said
they “couldn’t process information fast enough.”

• IT experts suggest that organizations have so far
managed to automate between 25 to 40% of their
workflows today.
• A large proportion of those activities yet to be
automated require a human go-between to fill
gaps between disjointed systems, or interface
between people and systems.
• These ‘swivel chair applications’ call on humans
to work on several systems at the same time to
complete a task (e.g. referencing multiple
application windows on one screen and populating
another).
• Such applications have been out of reach for
automation by IT – considered either too difficult or
too costly to automate using traditional
technologies.
20
The swivel chair applications
Make the Office Productivity Step Change with Encanvas Robotic Process Automation (RPA)

Traditional IT solutions
The procurement approaches of
businesses have traditionally
favored tool-kit style technology
platforms able to perform a common
capability across the enterprise.
In the context of process automation, in addition to
the inherent capabilities found in enterprise
resource planning and financial management
systems, Business Process Management (BPM)
tool-kits have emerged in recent years to augment
workflows that span between discrete systems and
silos of operation.
Whilst BPM tools have become relatively easy to
tailor to serve specific use case requirements, they
still require the intervention of IT and demand that
ways of working are adapted to suit the
technologies being introduced.
Rarely do tools offer the dexterity of capabilities to
fully eradicate the role of the human as the ‘data
processor’.
Due to over-pressured and under-resourced IT
teams, many office automation projects – with
dubious Returns on Investments owing to the very
small communities of users - drop to the bottom of
the IT priority list where so many projects
ultimately go to die.
Make the Office Productivity Step Change with Encanvas Robotic Process Automation (RPA)21 |

Automation challenges are not solely
about the dexterity of tech-tools. There
are many potential inhibitors to change
that can derail projects:
• Cost of IT and change can exceed the anticipated
return when applications may be used by only a
handful of users (or potentially just one).
• The time and difficulty of capturing and interpreting
use case needs can become an impenetrable
impenetrable barrier to projects moving forward.
Mistakes made at this stage can cause managers to
lose confidence in justifying future projects.
• Building a Return-on-Investment (RoI) argument to
justify investing IT and project resources can be
difficult – if not impossible – when it’s not clear how
much time and resource is needed to build the
solution, or what value stakeholders will eventually
enjoy once the automation is deployed.

Automation challenges

Robotic Process
Automation describes not
just a new flavor of
technology but a new
approach to addressing
office-centric data
handling and processing
tasks - those that
previously required
manual re-keying,
spreadsheets, hard-copy
documents and swivel
chair workers to perform.
23
Why Robotic Process Automation brings something new
There are several fundamental
characteristics of this kind of technology-
enabled solution that differ from Business
Process Management (BPM) tooling and
other traditional IT department dependent
solutions:
• The automation does not fundamentally
change the operation of the process.
Instead of a human tapping keys and
building spreadsheets, a computer
software application mimics the same
tasks in a similar way. Stakeholders do
not see a fundamental change to their
operating behaviours. The same
process stages will generally occur.
• Training of robots is generally performed
using code-free software, so it’s quick to do
and easy to adapt.
• IT challenges like implementing complex
APIs are removed by re-keying or
robotically extracting/uploading data to
legacy systems.
• Rather than being ‘a technology platform’
purchased and operated by IT – requiring a
big up-front investment and lots of risk,
‘robots’ are a resource that can be
outsourced in the same way as people,
individually selected by departmental
managers and billed monthly – with all the
contractual flexibility that represents.

What does the robot do?
Harvests data from motor dealership back-office
systems to identify sales lead opportunities. It then
publishes the sales leads into the dealerships
(separate) customer relationship management
system; delivering high quality leads, one lead at a
time.
What alternatives were considered?
• Generate a one-off monthly report (this was trialed
but, when faced with a long list of unqualified leads,
sales people would not act on the information)
• Do nothing
• Pay an intern or administrator to manually capture
the data and upload it
26
Automotive Sales Assistant
Benefits:
• Data accuracy
• Centrally managed
• Resources were not available in-house to support
this process
• The legacy system used meant generating
reports required lots of manual data aggregation
and cleansing before leads could be forwarded.
• Leads needed to be manually entered into the
CRM system.
• Information relating to the sales opportunity
useful to the salesperson could not be harvested
from one system, so the usefulness of leads
generated with a robot would be of little use for
salespeople.

What does the robot do?
To validate requests to perform road works, a
robot will harvest data from multiple sources and map
assets to build up a complete picture of the context of
the road work to be undertaken compared to other
local traffic planning events.
What alternatives were considered?
• Do nothing and continue to use an administrator,
although the traffic manager knew that growth in
requests meant the team would be short-handed.
• Purchase a new works planning system, but the
budget and intrusiveness of a new system was not
desirable.

• Easily and quickly scalable
• Easily repeatable
Example
Use Case
Make the Office Productivity Step Change with Encanvas Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
28. |
Robotic process automation is best suited to
mundane clerical data handling, re-purposing, re-
keying or re-publishing activities that:
• Can be mimicked by technologies that are script-
based, use if-then conditional logic or employ
artificial intelligence
• Tasks that involve small numbers of users
(potentially just one) that would be uneconomic to
automate with traditional IT
• Tasks that do not vary every time they occur
28
Measuring up

• Doesn’t require coding or developers to ‘train’ – which might
result in a need for testing, tuning, de-bugging etc.
• Adopt de facto industry standards to minimize/remove
information security risks, scaling and performance tuning
overheads etc.
• Is scalable and flexible
• Can harvest and use data from multiple sources at the same
time (multi-threaded, multi-sourcing) and potentially in real-
time – including sensors, CCTV image or video feeds, DLLs,
web portals, GPS and web apps

Solution must-haves
Applications design is a wasteful process. The
article ‘Why Your IT Project May Be Riskier
Than You Think’ by HBR (Nov 2011) followed a
survey of 1,471 IT projects with an average spend
of $167m and found:
• The average overrun was 27%
• One in six of the projects studied was a ‘black
swan’, with a cost over-run of 200%.
• Almost 70% of black swan projects also over-
ran their schedules.
Robotic Process Automation removes project
over-run risk and delivers best-fit solutions.

1. Releases time to key workers - Performs mundane
clerical tasks so key talent can focus on those
activities that bring value to customers and
stakeholders.
2. Stays in-tune with business tempo – Much faster
to build and deploy than traditional solutions thanks
to its light touch codeless approach (measured in
days and weeks rather than months) all but
displacing development and IT skills.
3. Keeps working 24/7 – Robots can work day and
night on their designated tasks to maximize the ROI
available.
4. Truly agile - Solutions can be re-trained as needed
must be adaptable to a variety of business needs
and scalable to enterprise size. In addition, solutions
must be compliance-ready and secure, storing
nothing locally.

Summary of benefits
5. Eliminates Human Errors – Automation with
RPA eliminates human error; fulfilling processes
predictably every time.
6. Scalable – Most robotic process automation
platforms are designed for enterprise scale
deployment and are typically cloud based
permitting truly massive scaling at very low cost.
7. Self-serving – Advanced solutions offer user
organizations the added benefit of being able to
train their own robots!
8. Easily integrated - Complementing, rather than
replacing, existing systems RPA solutions can
painlessly access data from multiple, disparate
sources without needing APIs or coding.

Editor's Notes
Impact of big data
“53% of the enterprises surveyed have cited the lack of talent to be one of the key challenges in the deployment of Big Data. Mckinsey estimates that India will need 200,000 data scientists in the coming years.”
“90% of businesses saw benefit in the implementation of big data analytics into their current business model. However, 45% of businesses looking to upgrade their data analytics workforce foresaw problems in sourcing enough sufficiently skilled worker. To fill this gap, there will have to be a staggering 243% increase in the number of big data technicians in the UK.”
