Conclusion

Among all digital transformation tools, RPA has the potential to reach more business processes and create greater business value, at a shorter time to

value

Our research indicates many manufacturing companies have not considered or implemented it at enterprise scale.

Our research highlights five stages manufacturers encounter in RPA implementation. Each has challenges but, with preparation,

manufacturers can realize significant value from RPA.
