How Can RPA Help In Manufacturing?

The core goals for manufacturing organisations center around growth, quality and efficiency. Our aim with Robocloud is to provide you with the support needed to achieve these goals across the entire organisation, from the supply chain, to administration (Finance and HR) to production.

Here’s how RPA can help manufacturing processes:-

  • System integration and data migration – with technological advancements constantly occurring their integration with legacy and CRM systems is essential to continuous development in manufacturing, and the RPA software can carry this out in a fraction of the time.
  • Inventory management – RPA bots can monitor customer demand and previous order levels to establish appropriate amounts of a material or component. This can be carried out when stock levels reach a minimum threshold level (determined by your rules).
  • Supply chain management – RPA technology can aid supply chain management and logistics in a variety of ways with transport system integration, effective monitoring and email automation. Email automation keeps suppliers and customers updated of the stages that a product enters from placement and production to shipment and delivery.

  • Bill of Materials (BoM) – this is a key manufacturing system, and it is vital that employees have access to the bill of materials, containing high quality and accurate data to ensure that the right information is obtained when purchasing materials or components. Our bots can provide enhanced accuracy and faster access, enabling the quick acquisition of high quality materials to fulfill orders and meet objectives.
  • CRM system – RPA can carry out automatic updates in your CRM system for changing customer details or regarding the various stages of the production process. Automatic alerts can also be created in maintaining a contact schedule throughout and enhancing customer communication.
  • Administration – various other functions need to be carried out in a manufacturing company such as paperwork digitisation, planning, employee onboarding and accounts reconciliation. RPA technology can carry out these tasks for you, even producing automated emails. Check out the Automated Accounts Reconciliation video below to find out how RPA technology can tackle one of these examples.
