What are the benefits of compliance automation?
RPA offers unique opportunities and insights for the entire governance structure of a company. For example, compliance automation simplifies processes to give meaningful feedback based on the RPA reporting. As a result, management can make informed decisions, make effective changes for more secure governance and compliance solutions, and implement more innovative tasks. Let’s discuss these specific benefits further:
Efficiency
RPA can aggregate data from multiple sources and provide an audit trail via a bot’s activity log. This helps achieve efficiency, enhances regulatory reporting, eliminates compliance risks, allows compliance management to receive real-time quality data and reports, and identifies vulnerabilities faster.
Opportunity
With the extra time saved from automating manual processes, the compliance team and management can review the compliance program to make it more efficient, and employees work on compliance activities that are more valuable to the company's growth.
Streamline
RPA creates one simplified way to monitor regulatory compliance and policy status. For example, RPA can track and report the completion of activities per service level agreements (SLAs) and for regulatory requirements. In addition, you can streamline any repetitive process to make the compliance program work effectively.
Cost-Effective
RPA eliminates the potential for compliance risk and compliance-related penalties due to human error inaccuracy or time management. It also eliminates the need for manual labor for these repetitive processes. Thus, RPA helps to solve compliance risks without changing the budget.
Security
Cybersecurity is paramount for any company to avoid breaches and maintain a secure data center. RPA mitigates risk by automating Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) systems to strengthen security. In addition, automating these processes can assist with early detection and risk resolution.
Accuracy
Eliminate potential human error where it’s needed most by collecting, analyzing, and reporting data to meet regulatory compliance. Additionally, it would save the time necessary to resolve human errors by minimizing error potential throughout compliance procedures.
Who benefits from automated compliance processes?
RPA configurations can assist in incorporating compliance processes throughout DevSecOps. Depending on the target department's needs, these automated processes can be “attended”, requiring some human interaction, or “unattended,” without intervention.

What to look for when incorporating compliance automation
When compliance automation software is incorporated correctly, RPA can help with monitoring and testing, risk assessment, complaints and regulatory management, and more. In addition, there are numerous use cases where RPA can assist in pulling information from multiple sources, organizing and analyzing it, and condensing and summarizing the data to meet compliance requirements reviews. Before using RPA, however, let's discuss the essential factors to assess to prepare your compliance team with RPA incorporation.
It’s essential to evaluate the quality of your data before incorporating RPA in the compliance process. In addition to data quality, companies must assess their current processes, policies, procedures, and systems within the governess structure to integrate RPA successfully. Enterprise systems also need to be compatible with RPA since it’ll draw information from there. If those systems need to be fixed, this must be accomplished before implementation.
