Hyperautomatization

Tomás Carpena -

Introduction.

Hyperautomation is a strategy that combines multiple technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and robotic process automation to optimize and improve business workflows. It refers to the automation of any business process using a combination of RPA and other advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence or machine learning.

Hyperautomation can be applied to different processes, such as:

  • Automation of purchase order approval processes
  • Automation of order creation
  • Automation of information extraction and analysis from emails or documents
  • Automation of workflow and business process management

Today, companies are constantly looking for ways to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and offer better service to their customers. One of the keys to digital transformation is Robotic Process Automation (RPA).

What is RPA?

Robotic Process Automation is a technology that uses software to automate business processes by creating robots capable of performing routine and repetitive tasks similar to how a human would. These "robots" can interact with systems and applications, performing tasks such as email management, report generation, or invoice analysis.

Benefits of RPA in Digital Transformation.

1

Efficiency improvement
By automating routine and repetitive tasks, these processes are completed in less time.

2

Error reduction
RPA reduces the number of human errors, since software robots do not make mistakes.

3

Increased productivity
Employees can be freed up to perform higher value-added tasks.

4

Improving decision-making
RPA can provide data and analysis to improve the decision-making process in the company.

5

Scalability
The volume of work can be easily scaled without the need to increase staff.

Microsoft Power Automate.

Power Automate is a process and workflow automation tool from Microsoft. It's a cloud service that allows you to easily automate processes and tasks through workflows using a simple and intuitive interface, file synchronization, notification management, and data collection.

Main features.

Connectivity.
It has the ability to connect two or more applications (both Office 365 and third-party).
Easy integration.
Power Automate integrates easily with a variety of applications such as Office 365, Dynamics 365, and third-party applications.
Security.
Ensures all automations comply with Microsoft security and privacy standards.
Flexibility.
Available in both cloud and on-premises solutions, adapting to business needs.
Intelligent automation.
Uses artificial intelligence to provide recommendations and improve workflow efficiency.

Use cases.

Finance
Invoice, payment, or inventory management and report generation.

3

Human resources
Management of absence requests, vacation periods, or performance evaluations.

4

Customer Service
Improve query responses and problem resolution through workflows.

5

Logistics
Order and shipping management.

Do you need to know programming to use Power Automate?

No, you don't need to know programming to use Power Automate. One of Power Automate's advantages is its accessibility for users without programming experience. The platform offers an intuitive and easy-to-use graphical interface, where users can drag and drop components to create automated workflows.

Microsoft provides predefined templates that make it easy to create automations. However, for advanced users who want to create more complex workflows, Power Automate also allows for the integration of custom scripts and code.

Conclusion.

Robotic process automation and tools like Power Automate are changing the way companies work, enabling them to become more efficient and competitive. Adopting these new technologies empowers companies to offer better, higher-quality services in a shorter timeframe. This also results in a reduction in company expenses when performing these tasks.
The business world is increasingly competitive, making it essential to drive digital transformation and stay up-to-date with new technologies.
