Webinar
See how AI-powered automation is leading to resilient and sustainable supply chains during this one-hour webinar. Join UiPath, SAP, and Deloitte to look at real customer use cases that show how automation and AI enable the end-to-end supply chain.
Build supply chain resilience
Ensure that your supply chain adapts quickly and withstands disruption.
Increase production yield and capacity
Enable engineers to focus on improving yield and capacity by automating daily production.
Accelerate new product introduction
Connect processes and systems to accelerate product design, defect resolution, and production readiness.
Top automation areas
Adapt fast to demand and supply fluctuations and withstand disruptions.
Many companies have automated the physical supply chain through smart manufacturing and smart warehouses (i.e. robotics, conveyer belts, etc.), but their digital supply chains are still plagued with manual, repetitive, document-driven processes that impact lead times, inventory, and customer service levels. AI and Automation smooth out the bumps, cut out the delays, and drive agility and flexibility.
Increase manufacturing productivity, capacity and yield.
Instead of teams relying on in-person meetings and static planning documents for project alignment, smart factories streamline communication leveraging technologies like communications mining and intelligent document understanding to ensure that critical design and operations decisions are informed by the most current data.
Automation in high tech manufacturing, including the use of robotics and automated test equipment (ATE), significantly boosts productivity and operational efficiency. These technologies allow for continuous operations without fatigue and minimize human errors, leading to increased throughput and faster production cycles
Accelerate new product introductions
Save up to 20% of Product Engineering time by automating the manual repetitive aspects of project management and software & product testing.
Supply chain resilience
Adapt fast to demand and supply fluctuations and withstand disruptions.
Use cases:
Real-time monitoring of inventory levels, supplier performance, and logistics operations; and dynamic update of supply chain planning master data.
Business partner communications: automate and optimize email communication in the supply chain by intelligently processing emails, extracting and acting on relevant information, and enabling faster, more accurate responses. This leads to increased operational efficiency, improved customer satisfaction, and enhanced security and compliance.
With better visibility, anticipate disruptions, manage inventory better, and optimize logistics and distribution.
Smart manufacturing
Increase manufacturing productivity, capacity, and yield.
Use cases:
Sourcing: Invoice processing and exception management
Quality management, product testing, and genealogy tracking
Engineering change management
Predictive maintenance
After Sales: Service desk triage and auto-resolution of tickets
Claims / warranty automation – validation, approvals, and evaluation
Engineering and design
Accelerate new product introductions.
Use cases:
Test design: generate step-by-step test cases from your software and hardware requirements
Test automation: generate coded test automations from test steps and code comments
Test results: generate real-time, actionable test insights without prebuilt reports
