No progress with automation? Then expect to be overtaken
Organisations recognise they need to address their manual processes to stay competitive.Intelligent Automation is a powerful way to boost the performance of many business functions and enable staff to focus on more valuable work.
Yet many who have started their automation journey have failed to realise the benefits and scale across the organisation.
High investment
The traditional approach of buying licenses upfront, self-hosting and lengthy delivery approaches have given automation a poor reputation.
No business case
Typically the processes that are disliked the most, or are most complex, are given a priority for automation rather than the ones that will deliver the most business benefits.
Inflexible
In the rush to automate there is typically limited staff engagement and ownership of the automated operations.
This severely limits the ability to maintain the automated operations following new business or IT requirements.
Benefits of Intelligent Automation
NTT DATA uses its broad experience to help organisations realise the full range of benefits from Intelligent Automation.

You’re either the one that creates the automation or you’re getting automated.
Integrated Automation brought to life
NTT DATA can help you scale and sustain the benefits from automation. Automation is the bridge between the business and IT. Both must stay aligned to sustain the benefits.NTT DATA’s approach is to deliver automation integrated into a living business architecture that is owned and updated by both business and IT. This provides clarity on end-to-end processes, accelerates the identification of new opportunities and streamlines changes to the automated operations.
Real-time collaboration
Early engagement of the people who will be working with the automation is critical to avoid resistance and gain active support. NTT DATA’s approach is collaborative from the start with workshops where processes are captured and designed in real-time, and online access for rapid reviews, discussions and approvals.
