10 Process Robotics key ingredients Process mapping Object studio Work Queues Control room Visual representation of tasks and steps performed by robot A library of reusable objects that can be used when performing processes The work queue holds the backlog for each of your defined processes Manage your robots from the control room Map your processes using level 4 detailed working instructions Highlights specific elements of SAP/Oracle/Websites/ Excel Keep track of your backlog Decide which processes to run Most tooling allows the process owner to monitor the processes (e.g. how often does a specific exception occur?) Process mapping speed increases as more objects have been defined Decide which processes to run based on the size of the work queue Assign processes manually, or automatically (when the work queue >100 items, every night at 03.00h or when a file is saved at a specific folder location) 10

15 A typical Process Robotics journey Understand the impact of Finance Robotics on the business Raise awareness Usually C-level audience Understand business target areas Identify potential (E2E) target processes for Finance Robotics Usually process owner audience Perform vendor selection process (including longlist, short-list and demonstrations) Implement Finance Robotics for the happy flow of the target process(es) to demonstrate the product feasibility Use design thinking and rapid prototyping to finalize detailed solution architecture Integrate with enterprise systems Configure and teach software robots Test and deploy solution Build the Finance Robotics solution for each use case Enable and train users in Finance Robotics tool for adaptation and implementation purposes Run Finance Robotics solution once steady-state is achieved Roll-out to other identified target processes Awareness Workshop Process Workshop Proof of Concept Pilot Implementation & Further Roll-out 2 hours 1 week 2 weeks per POC process Depending on scope Depending on scope 15

17 Evaluatie van doelprocessen voor Robotics Proces Robotics criteria Proces Robotics kan werk sneller en efficiënter uitvoeren dan de huidige handmatige methode. Als we processen evalueren voor Proces Robotics, dan identificeren we transactionele activiteiten die voldoen aan de volgende criteria: Criteria Rule Based Transactioneel Hoog volume Gestructureerde Data Herhaalbaar Geavanceerde / Cognitieve Robotics criteria Geavanceerde / Cognitieve Robotics kan gebruikt worden om taken die gespecialiseerde menselijke kennis nodig hebben te transformeren. Als we processen evalueren voor Geavanceerde / Cognitieve Robotics, dan identificeren we activiteiten die voldoen aan de volgende criteria: Criteria Gedragspatronen Meerdere Databronnen Ongestructureerde Data Complexe Processen Grote Data Sets 17

18 Earlier experience with project implementations Our findings from previous Finance Robotics project implementations can be clustered into five themes: 1 Finance Robotics implementation is not an IT project 2 Detailed working instructions and specific training materials are required 3 After cost savings, quality improvement is a key advantage of implementing Finance Robotics 4 Support functions like IT, HR, Legal and Tax must be involved with the Finance Robotics Implementation 5 Change management is a critical success factor 18
