Increasing need to Reduce Operational Cost Driving Growth of the Automation-as-a-Service Market

The rising competition across industries has pushed enterprises to adopt automation within the workflow process. Robotic process automation and business process automation has been adopted in multiple industries such as retail, food & beverages, and BFSI. The major reason to automate the processes is to reduce the long-term operational cost. Automation-as-a-Service enables the end-user to purchase the services in bundles (pay-as-you-go or subscription basis), which does not lead to any financial burden for integrating automation within the enterprise or organization. It indirectly helps in achieving economies of scale with respect to total cost.
