Shanghai Nokia Bell Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Nokia Bell" ) is a Sino-foreign joint venture jointly established by Nokia Group and Huaxin Post and Telecommunications, a subsidiary of China Poly Group. It has established a full industrial chain layout in China, including R&D, marketing, services, global delivery, and supply. With the advancement of comprehensive digital transformation, Nokia Bell's digital office flexibly uses various emerging technologies to start a gorgeous transformation of digital transformation.

Among them, Nokia Bell chose UiPath RPA as a tool for transformation. During the cooperation, UiPath tailored solutions for Nokia Bell to meet its new business and management needs.

The system is complex and the transformation is challenging

As the first generation of Sino-foreign joint ventures with a long history, Nokia Bell has diversified internal business processes and application systems. In addition, as the company continues to grow, its personnel and organizational structure also need to be optimized.

In addition, many factors such as data protection, laws and compliance, and commercial software integration restrictions bring challenges to employee operations and data consistency, and employee workload also increases.

Therefore, Nokia Bell needs to use more digital tools to advance and optimize.

Start your transformation journey with UiPath RPA

To accelerate digital transformation, Nokia Bell Digital Office started RPA introduction in the second half of 2020. The Digital Office screened and inspected multiple RPA products at home and abroad. In order to ensure the adaptability and effectiveness of RPA products, two suitable application scenarios were selected from the HR department as RPA product pilots. After a series of pilot projects and comprehensive comparisons of products, the UiPath RPA solution was finally selected.

The RPA product was officially deployed in the enterprise in January 2021, and is now mainly used for tasks such as automatic export of human resources-related reports by the HR department and automatic processing of orders by the procurement department.

Reasonable deployment, empowering enterprises

After the successful pilot, Nokia Bell started the journey of expanding RPA in other departments, and deployed RPA robots in the three major departments of HR, procurement, and sales.

In terms of efficiency, UiPath RPA can save more than 80 hours of manpower per month for the three departments, effectively reducing the workload and improving operational efficiency. For example, by automatically exporting human resource reports and processing purchase orders, RPA improves the work efficiency of each department from point to surface, empowering the enterprise from multiple angles.

At present, the efficient work performance of UiPath RPA has met the initial expectations of the business department. The effectiveness of RPA will be further deepened in the subsequent business deployment to create more automation value for the department. Of course, the robots of the three major departments of procurement, HR, and sales have been online for a short time and are still in the operation observation period. Therefore, the business department needs to continue to follow up and provide feedback.

Promote RPA operations and help enterprises in the future

Nokia Bell RPA project team said, "RPA can help employees complete repetitive, low-value work, thereby freeing up their hands and allowing them to focus on high-value-added, creative work. UiPath's comprehensive RPA solution deployment provides a good operating foundation for robots that handle various businesses, allowing companies to better carry out automated process work. Next, we will accelerate the expansion of RPA to more business departments through internal promotion methods, and achieve overall system optimization and digital transformation."

UiPath RPA is simple and easy to use. Business personnel without any programming knowledge can also design their own robots. UiPath aims to realize the vision of one robot for each person, continuously improve business process efficiency, and explore more new opportunities for personal career development.

Looking to the future, UiPath RPA will surely bring more new ideas to corporate development and become Nokia Bell's "new engine" for digital transformation, helping them discover more possibilities and helping them take the lead in the fierce market competition!
