Key Findings & Highlights:

The global RPA market is worth $373m (estimated in 2017), with average CAGR of 72% through 2021. The cognitive automation market is worth $317m, with 71% CAGR projected through 2021.

Both markets are quite young, with providers still seeking leadership positions. The boundaries between RPA and AI are blurring, with RPA vendors increasingly including machine learning and cognitive automation in their roadmaps, and cognitive technology vendors such as WorkFusion developing RPA capability.

The primary focus of RPA is on back-office tasks characterized by high volumes of work, low overall variability, and high value derived from automation. Primary drivers for RPA deployment are FTE reduction, process cycle time improvement, and expansion of work capacity in preparation for disruptive market action (in either direction).

Most deployments are still delivered directly, but an increasing proportion are managed via solution integrators, on a spectrum ranging from split direct/partnered deployment to entirely reliant on SIs to provision the solution.

Deployments are being led by organizations in the BFSI and healthcare verticals, where high volumes of repetitive tasks with critical quality and security issues are driving automation uptake. These same security issues are driving RPA deployments as on-premise technology in these industries.
