Firstsource was founded in 2001 by ICICI bank to provide operations services. Firstsource started its banking BPS business in 2002, and its operations commenced in 2003. The first client was a tier one banking client in the U.K. which required support for credit card operations. From its inception, Firstsource was delivering automation services for its banking clients.

In 2016 Firstsource began its RPA practice by delivering automation and RPA services for a U.K. headquartered tier one bank. The client’s factoring and commercial lending businesses needed to increase operating efficiency. Firstsource delivered an engagement with two key technical components:

  • Rearchitecting workflows: mapping processes, reengineering, and automating with RPA
  • RPA: designing, and deploying BOTS

By project completion, the project achieved:

  • Processes automated: 57% (attended and non-attended) the remaining processes are judgment-based and manual
  • 150 BOTS running.
