Axon Ivy has partnered with Blue Prism to offer an end-to-end digital transformation solution. By integrating the Axon Ivy Platform with Blue Prism’s Robotic Process Automation (RPA), the partnership enables seamless collaboration between human employees and digital workers.
Imagine a payment processing scenario: An invoice arrives by email, an employee checks it, and enters it into the ERP system. It is then forwarded for approval, after which payment is processed. This process, with many individual steps, can be automated. Blue Prism's Robotic Process Automation solution handles the invoice processing, while the Axon Ivy Digital Business Platform automates the exception handling workflow. An employee only needs to be involved if error messages are reported during the validation process. This is just one example of how combining RPA and Digital Process Automation (DPA) can optimize various processes.
"Digital workers," such as Blue Prism's software robots, perform monotonous and repetitive tasks like data entry. In return, employees can focus on more complex tasks requiring human decision-making, achieving "quick wins." This reduces the probability of errors, improves the speed of innovation, and fosters creative problem-solving within the company.
Digital workers use AI and machine learning to learn and optimize their processes. Furthermore, RPA can be extended by DPA for true end-to-end automation within the enterprise. To advance beyond automating individual tasks to entire processes, a DPA solution like the Axon Ivy Digital Business Platform is needed.
The platform focuses on optimizing complex processes with many intermediate steps and stakeholders. When DPA and RPA technologies are combined, automated subtasks can be seamlessly embedded and orchestrated. The Axon Ivy Digital Business Platform integrates with Blue Prism via a plug-and-play connection, allowing digital workers, humans, and systems to work together seamlessly. This enables consistent and complete end-to-end digitization.
Blue Prism is the global leader in intelligent automation for the enterprise, transforming the way work is done. Blue Prism has users in over 150 countries across more than 1,800 businesses, including Fortune 500 and public sector organizations.
