RPA for eCommerce Industry in Japan
The Need for RPA in eCommerce Companies
Needless to say, how quickly eCommerce is growing, and taking over the conventional transactions. Today, a considerable chunk of transactions happening all over the world, happen through eCommerce channels, and therefore, it would not be immature or early to say that eCommerce is here to stay for years, and is going to be the future of worldwide commercial transactions. Although a modern element, eCommerce too has its own, sort of conventional challenges, and which is why it needs RPA to overcome them and amplify the overall eCommerce process and experience. Apart from this, eCommerce involves various back-end operations that the customer, perhaps, has got a blurred idea about, but those operations are certainly beyond his sight.
Moreover, customers hold a lot of expectations from eCommerce. They want their transactions to be processed within the blink of an eye. Besides, every regular eCommerce customer in the world looks for ease of payment, coupled up with quick delivery. Remember, each of these expectations has got a process running behind the curtains. Nevertheless, very few, probably as less as 1% of eCommerce consumers across the globe feel that their expectations are met. All the others, either remain dissatisfied and give it up on a particular service provider or engage with another, perhaps, a quicker and better one. It is this need to expedite processes, reduce manual efforts at the backend, and also to reduce the customer’s waiting time over the call that brings RPA in the picture.
Automation Challenges in E-commerce
Besides, the ever-changing product information poses another challenge, wherein it is imperative that automation system has capabilities to incorporate these changes, and then relay them onto the user-interface.
Another challenge is that of configurable behavior. Updates, offers, or changes to a product, policy or any other related thing are easy to showcase in case of physical shopkeepers, however, not in the case of eCommerce. Incorporating these updates and then exhibiting them in the required manner requires a strong and competent automation system that has got the technical capabilities to integrate and showing the updates up in a relatively easy manner.
RPA Benefits in Ecommerce Industry
RPA benefits in several ways. It helps with the required momentum to expedite transactions with a reduction in the processing time, thereby contributing to augmented customer service. Also, if incorporated well with the backend verification process, it could accelerate the verification process, thus considerably reducing the per transaction time.
Often, customer service agents at eCommerce call centers end up with low productivity levels, and also can’t work up to the expectations of the customer. Of course, it isn’t always their fault. It could be the slow systems in place, or an element or a chain of manual interventions that slows down the process. RPA, however, improves agent productivity, as agents are now left with more calls to handle, and that too in an effective manner. So, in a nutshell, RPA works towards improved productivity, the accuracy of transactions, saving man-hours, and also labour costs, and most importantly, a happy, smiling, and satisfied customer logging out of the system or ending the call.
