Back office operations include a range of functions like accounting, IT, HR, data management, and much more. Charter Global frequently works with clients seeking a more streamlined back-office with Robotic Process Automation in order to improve overall efficiency.

What tasks are able to be automated?

If an assignment is repetitive, it most likely can be automated. For many back-office operations, using RPA is a great way to free up employees to work on time-sensitive critical tasks. While at one time there was a worry that robots would take jobs away from the more they were used in businesses, we have found that our clients are able to scale and provide better customer service than without robotic automation. From small tasks to more complex projects, RPAs empower employees to engage in more meaningful work, have higher job satisfaction, increase morale, and further the goals of the company.

Where should my back office start with RPA?

Because each business is unique in how the services it offers, the people it employs, and the way it operates, we always recommend consulting with our automation team before getting started. If a business is just getting started with RPA, we will start with a simple approach. Changes (whether big or small) in a business can often cause waves that impact the organization in surprising ways. By starting with a few simpler RPA bots and building from there, Charter Global can ensure your business will improve exactly how you want it to be.

For some businesses, their first RPA might be fact-checking payroll information. For others, it might be data entry of new leads from a recent survey. Regardless of what the function is, RPA is often able to completely eliminate human error, decrease costs, and improve productivity.
