SMU RPA Series: Tech Lab 3 - Process Optimisation and Change Management
- Analytics & Tech
- Innovation & Business Improvement
16 hours
Who Should Attend
Corporate professionals from back-office functions such as HR, Finance, IT, Procurement, etc.
Overview
As great as the opportunities are for RPA, practical application of the technology in banking, insurance, health care and manufacturing suggests that most companies do not do a great job of socialising RPA adequately among constituencies before launching their RPA initiatives. Before embarking on the RPA journey, leaders should assess the business landscape and the interests of key stakeholders, their current and desired states of operation, their existing talent pool and other resources and senior executive willingness to truly sponsor the combination of human and virtual labour.
This Tech Lab is an add-on to the Core Module to help companies/ organisations with their project initiatives specific to RPA implementations.
Under the guidance of seasoned industry practitioners and experienced digital leaders from EY, this Tech Lab helps a business or organisation embark on RPA implementation within their company/ organisation by helping to build data-driven business decision-making practice and plan a cohesive digital transformation.
Learning Objectives
At the end of the 16 hours' worth of hands-on project with facilitated guidance, advisory and learning, participants will be able to:
- Build confidence in the processes to be automated that the end state will drive optimal efficiency
- Identify potential roadblocks and challenges caused by sub-optimal processes before commencing development
