IBM and Automation Anywhere, a developer of robotic process automation software, on Friday collaborated to offer solutions to help industries streamline their data-intensive processes such as banking, financial services, insurance and health care.
As part of the agreement, the two companies plan to integrate Automation Anywhere’s Robotic Process Automation (RPA) platform — used to create software bots to handle repetitive, task-based business processes, with IBM’s portfolio of digital process automation software.
Denis Kennelly, General Manager, IBM Hybrid Cloud Solutions informed that the combination of the Automation Anywhere and IBM process management platforms provides a powerful new way for companies to streamline business processes so employees can spend less time filling out forms and more time working with customers.
The new offering will be relevant to companies where employees routinely have to manually complete tasks within business processes.
Mihir Shukla, CEO and Co-founder of Automation Anywhere added that this new capability to help companies better manage almost any part of a business process with speed, efficiency and reliability is extraordinary, enabling companies to become digital enterprises.
