Digital futures: Making life easier with automation

Our Digital Futures at Oxford series of thought leadership sessions continue with a talk from Andrew Edge (Simpson Associates). Andrew tells us about using robotic process automation to improve business processes. 

Digital futures at Oxford: Make your life easier with automation (Simpson Associates)

Andrew shows us ways to use the Power Automate platform to make our working lives easier. He explains how automation can be used to reduce human error or create consistency for repetitive processes. Andrew also talks about best practice to onboard colleagues in the technology, and shares valuable 'dos and don’ts' for using automation to save us time on the boring tasks - making our lives easier so we can concentrate on the things that really matter!

For those unable to attend the session, a recording of Andrew's talk is available for you to watch (requires SSO). You can find information about this series and future events on our innovation page, or the IT news and events page.
