Ideal automation candidates include processes that are highly standardized with electronic data inputs, such as streamlining data collection and processing, document management, identity verification and automatically responding to information requests from citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A 2021<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fedscoop.com\/government-harness-robotic-process-automation-improve-services\/\">\u00a0survey<\/a>\u00a0underwritten by UiPath found that 6 in 10 federal respondents \u2014 and half of state respondents \u2014 view <strong>RPA<\/strong> as a building block to harnessing artificial intelligence and machine learning, by accelerating data gathering and improving data quality. Why? For starters, <strong>RPA <\/strong>has the lowest cost to entry in the Intelligent Automation space and provides high rates of returns when implemented correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RPA<\/strong> and the use of intelligent bots are proving critical for agencies seeking to automate time-consuming manual processes required to run a government agency. For agencies evaluating <strong>RPA<\/strong>, it is critical to first identify which processes are best suited for automation \u2013 a decision in large part driven by the impact on the amount of time, money, and frustration saved with a new solution. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?rct=j&amp;sa=t&amp;url=https:\/\/www.federaltimes.com\/it-networks\/2022\/11\/17\/how-robotic-process-automation-is-helping-federal-agencies-manage-data\/&amp;ct=ga&amp;cd=CAEYAioTNDE2NjU5ODM2Mzk4MjA3OTg2OTIaODc5MTAwZmJiYzcxYjA2NDpjb206ZW46VVM&amp;usg=AOvVaw1MIDnjCvtuHjwalkVv0QdK\">Read On:<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By\u00a0Mark\u00a0Hogenmiller &#8211; When it comes to government deployments of automation and AI\/ML, the spotlight often shines brightest on high profile applications \u2013 whether it\u2019s augmenting soldier performance on the battlefield, driving intelligence gathering or modernizing the delivery of citizen services. <span class=\"excerpt-dots\">&hellip;<\/span> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.cyberconservices.com\/index.php\/2022\/11\/23\/how-robotic-process-automation-is-helping-federal-agencies-manage-data\/\"><span class=\"more-msg\">Continue reading &rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":68002,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[674,628],"tags":[675,629],"class_list":["post-68001","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-robotic-process-automation-processs-automation","category-rpa","tag-robotic-process-automation","tag-rpa"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":46049,"url":"https:\/\/blog.cyberconservices.com\/index.php\/2021\/03\/24\/5-priorities-for-the-federal-rpa-community-of-practice-in-2021\/","url_meta":{"origin":68001,"position":0},"title":"5 priorities for the federal RPA Community of Practice in 2021","author":"Rick Backus","date":"March 24, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"Agencies\u00a0plan to\u00a0generate demand and optimize processes for automation in 2021, among\u00a0three other priorities announced by\u00a0the federal Robotic Process Automation Community of Practice\u2019s executive sponsor on Tuesday.
