The company has more than 60 process automations in production – across many different parts of the company including, finance, IT, supply chain, logistics and marketing. This has resulted in Arla Foods accelerating the development time of processes by approximately 30 percent and it's automated over 30 FTEs worth of manual, repetitive work.
ROM Excellence & Value Driver Excellence: Lloyds Banking Group is investing in 'enterprise enabling' technologies, that include intelligent process automation – to keep its operations simple, low-risk, and customer focused.

The bank is adopting new technologies, introducing machine learning and creating approximately 780,000 hours of additional colleague capacity through the use of robotics - for simple repetitive tasks.
Long-Standing Innovation: Nokia identified connected-RPA as a critical enabler for developing the touchless operations needed to optimize speed, accuracy and reduce the cost to serve.

Rookie of the Year: The University of Sydney launched its automation focused AI Hub in 2018 to improve service levels for staff and students, release staff time back to the business and reduce risks.
