The Smart Government Innovation Lab of Hong Kong recently announced that it is looking for companies to apply to acquire and deploy a solution developed by one of its supported ventures.
Solution description
Automation Anywhere’s vision of RPA in the public sector is to take the robot out of the human and solve government’s mission challenges by liberating employees from mundane, repetitive tasks, allowing them more time to use their intellect and creativity.
This vision is to help to create a world where every employee will work side by side with Digital Workers, making humans exponentially more productive and far more fulfilled.
The benefits of Robotic Process Automation include:
- Upgraded Citizen Experience: RPA provides flexible technology that enables agencies to keep up with citizen demand and desire for consumer-grade service levels.
- Modernised Government Forms: the technology helps optimise data collection, consolidation, and indexing to set up all processes with the right information, right away.
- Interoperated with any system: RPA is designed to work with any system from legacy to cloud. Free human talent from connecting the dots between systems to focus on high-value work.
- Improved Mission Delivery: From input through to compliance and reporting, RPA enables smoother, faster, service delivery, by automating high-friction/bottleneck steps in processes.
Application areas
The solution can be applied in the areas of Broadcasting, City Management, Climate and Weather, Commerce and Industry, Development, Education, Employment and Labour, Environment, Finance, Food, Health, Housing, Infrastructure, Law and Security, Population, Recreation and Culture, Social Welfare as well as Transport.
Technologies Used
The solution employs Artificial Intelligence (AI), Deep Learning, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing as well as Robotic Process Automation.
Use Case
