Key Findings & Highlights:

HCL began its autonomics program in 2011, expanding this into RPA and AI in 2013. Since then HCL has developed enhanced tools for managing RPA and AI, within its DRYiCE™ autonomics and orchestration framework which covers automation of IT, infrastructure, ADM as well as automation of business processes.

HCL's BPS leverages its RPA and AI capabilities in support of its industry-specific services which cover retail and investment banking, manufacturing, capital market, logistics, telecom, real-estate, and healthcare. HCL’s first RPA engagement began in 2014, for a bank based in Europe.

While organizations are increasingly encouraging the involvement of their re-engineering group in RPA & AI assessments and implementations, RPA is sometimes still implemented over unnecessary process steps and it can be easy to overlook the need to review and update process controls which may change as a result of process re-engineering and automation. Indeed, there remains a danger that these three activities of process controls, process improvement, and automation are treated by organizations as separate initiatives with separate teams, with the possibility that the risk compliance team, lacking involvement, might raise serious concerns over step elimination or the tactical RPA implementation.

In response, HCL has introduced its "3-Lever BPM Approach" integrating these three activities to develop a single & unified view of the to-be process and bringing together the Office of Regulatory Compliance, Process Improvement team & Office of Automation within its "3-Lever BPM Approach" to combine risk analysis, Lean studies, and automation using RPA and AI within a single framework. HCL perceives that the three studies have different goals but the steps to achieving them are almost the same: process mapping.
