Organizations are applying digitalization to increasing amounts of different organizational processes. The procurement sector is also changing and actively seeking better ways to enhance performance such as the automation of workflow processes, for example, robotic process automation (RPA). To meet this clear demand, the automation of workflow processes in organizations has been a rising trend during the past few years. The author analyzes the potential of RPA along with the cognitive technologies robotic cognitive automation-based (RCA) value creation through knowledge work digitalization in the procurement sector.

Automation is the future for organizational processes. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is the solution for software automation in various domains like IT, Finance and accounting, Supply chain and so on. In this paper we propose a RPA solution for education domain. This paper shows the automation process for result analysis of student’s examination results. The automation process takes input as the university result in pdf form. We performed automation on this input file using Automation anywhere tool. Our result shows that all the work is error free. Also time required for this analysis is around 94.44% less as compared to manual analysis by human.

There have been a number of breakthroughs in artificial intelligence since the beginning of the 21st century with machines now outperforming humans in cognitive tasks such as object detection, face recognition, language translation, and complex decision strategies. Computational advances enable machines to process and analyse information at a scale far beyond human capabilities and has led to a rise in demand for intelligent process automation (IPA) services. This article considers the potential for cognitive algorithms to disrupt knowledge work in the modern workplace. Benefits include augmenting and accelerating the intelligence-decision-action cycle that is central to knowledge work. However, there are also risks from becoming over-reliant on algorithms in ambiguous and uncertain real-world situations. The value from next-generation knowledge systems will come from bridging human and artificial intelligence for insights and innovation.

The study provides knowledge on the adoption of the Robotic Process Automation (RPA) technology during the COVID-19 pandemic in 110 Polish service companies. As this research was the first of its kind in Poland, the objectives of the CAWI survey were to identify the technology features of the RPA technology and the related determinants and barriers influencing the adoption of the RPA as well as to determine correlations between them. Moreover, the statistical analyses involved considering whether there were differences in the evaluation of individual RPA technology features, mainly in terms of perceived usefulness, ease of use, security and functionality. The results of the study show that almost 60% of the respondents indicated that robotization tools allowed maintaining continuity of business processes during the pandemic. The highest rated were features related to usefulness of the RPA technology. Furthermore, the analysis pointed to the most frequently indicated barriers to technology implementation that were related to nonoptimized, nonstandardized and non-digitized processes with a large number of exceptions. The study contributes to scientific knowledge and has practical implications for process automation decision-makers concerned with the adoption of the Robotic Process Automation technology. The obtained results can help them to understand the potential drivers of and barriers to the adoption of software robots by enterprises and may be an important determinant for companies’ managers in the field of implementing such solutions.
