Innovation

One of our key differentiators is our approach to innovation. We consistently ensure our Support Service is at the forefront of the industry when it comes to operations, process excellence and tooling.

Our approach revolves around our innovation centre of excellence and includes:

  • The introduction and integration of new technologies within the existing ecosystem to ensure our clients stay ahead of the curve.

  • Collaboration with clients on innovation and enhancements, focusing on client needs.

  • Innovation Labs and Workshops run throughout the year.

  • The assessment of third party tools or the creation of tailored in-house applications to meet client requirements.

Remote robot-monitoring is a simple undertaking, but constant monitoring, with fast response Service Levels, requires a considerable number of personnel, many of whom need to be highly experienced. Our approach has been to automate our Support service and create a ‘Virtuous Circle’ of innovation, whereby root-cause analysis of incidents is aimed at reducing repeat occurrences. These innovations significantly and continually reduce the cost of our clients’ production Support

Technology

Underpinning our service is a suite of tools that we have either developed or partnered with to provide a cost-effective end-to-end support platform.

We are tool-agnostic in terms of the technology we support and have deep expertise in the Blue Prism product suite including Capture, ALM, Decipher, Chorus, Desktop and Interact. Our database team are experts in Azure, AWS and Oracle.

We have experience in a range of BPM, CRM and IMS systems that support our service offerings including SAP, Service Now, Pega, Oracle, Appian and Opentext.

Control Tower has driven a significant improvement in process uptime and enabled us to grow our business with confidence knowing our critical processes will scale with our changing needs. We estimate Virtual Operations has saved us over $200 million in potential downtime.
