Challenges

Documentation is an essential part of every business. And when it comes to the logistics and supply chain industry, many companies are plagued by a large number of varied documents. For our client, handling these documents is a major component to achieve improved supply chain management. They were using manual processes for data extraction.

Due to the manual extraction and integration of documents, their error rates were higher. Also, repeatable document-oriented manual tasks were pushing employees to spend more time. Apart from the data extraction and process, the client was also facing the following issues:

  • The manual task of data entries to the respective state sites.
  • Delay in document and file management.
  • A less productive process adds up to lots of wasted time, money and energy.
  • Collecting information from drivers of different states.

Hence, to address these challenges, reduce the time spent on manual tasks and streamline the process, it was vital for the client to embrace automation.

Solutions

Logistics is a very complex industry with repetitive document-oriented tasks. Hence, modern businesses opt for automation to handle mundane, repetitive documentation work. To automate the document extraction and management process, RPA solution is the most suitable of all. After a thorough study and evaluation, Softweb Solutions designed an innovative solution utilizing the latest RPA tools for document processing and data entry.
