IBA and the customer worked together on the Proof-of-Concept, implementing the most typical business processes. The project duration was three months. Of these, IBA Group spent one month at the customer’s premises and two months working from an offshore location.

Project Results

1. Automation rate for extraction: 78%
2. Average accuracy: 94%
3. Reduction in manual effort per transaction: 63% (1 m 50 sec vs. 5 min)
4. For Excel: accuracy 100%, automation rate 100%,

As the proof-of-concept yielded positive results, the project was put into production.
