What is RPA and how does it benefit supply chain management?
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) automates repetitive and rule-based tasks in supply chain operations. It improves accuracy, reduces manual errors, accelerates processing, and enhances overall efficiency in procurement, inventory, and logistics processes. RPA can automate order processing, inventory tracking, supplier onboarding, demand forecasting, invoice management, and shipment scheduling freeing up human resources for more strategic tasks.
