Each month, they received and processed approximately 4000 supplier invoices, each with a unique format, design and data structure. Each invoice was reviewed, and the required accounts payable information was manually keyed into the procurement system. This process required considerable resources, which affected their ability to meet remittance and payment timelines. The client sought a cost-efficient, automated solution that would allow them to increase efficiency and scale as the number of vendors changed. Implementing Protiviti’s automated invoice processing solution in the cloud, leveraging machine learning and RPA which incorporated structured data output, the client reduced manual and time-consuming effort by 50% and enhanced the overall vendor relationship by providing a faster and more accurate remittance process. Case Study 2 A luxury sport apparel company needed an automated solution to quantify and classify their customer feedback that would enable the company to create an actionable strategy and improve their customer service experience. Protiviti successfully conducted quantitative and qualitative analysis to define the root cause and key areas of improvement for customer experience and business operations including: Protiviti’s Artificial Intelligence algorithm to classify text into defined categories and Natural Language Processing derived text analytics to further understand structure, sentiment, and intent. Case Study 3 As part of the COVID-19 Stimulus package substantial funding was provided to the SBA for Paycheck Protection Program PPP. The window for application was very tight with an extremely high volume of applications needing to be entered and process. Each application required over 50 data entry points and a single error would cause the entire application to fail and need to start over. Client desired an automated solution to quickly enter the loan application data and reduce errors. In two days, Protiviti's team designed and delivered an automated processing solution that ingested the customer loan application, extracted line items and key information, then entered this information into the SBA website. Utilising an attended UI Path Bot, the client significantly scaled the application entry process, increasing the volume of applications which could be processed with higher accuracy and reduced portal time. Case Study 4 A leading courier delivery services company, managing nearly 8,000 packages a day, was experiencing delays and errors in their processing centers. Challenges included special handling requirements for oversize packages while packages with cardboard material were required to be identified and set aside through human intervention. This manual process was error prone, often resulting in the unnecessary stoppage of conveyor belts – disrupting processing and was inefficient. Utilising deep learning for image recognition for the conveyor belt video feed, Protiviti developed two proprietary detection algorithms to both quickly and accurately identify oversize packages and recognise cardboard material. These solutions were designed to be hosted in the cloud environment, enabling scalability for peak seasonal demand.
