Many companies are now kicking the tires on various forms of automation— robotic process, integrated analytics and artificial intelligence—to advance IT's high-efficiency agenda. However, only a few companies have been able to reap its full value.
Effective automation requires a comprehensive automation strategy, introducing opportunities to optimize or transform an end-to-end function, rather than individualized capabilities.
