Want to save $736,800 in development work? Here's how one company did it using Blue Prism's Digital Exchange (DX)...   They downloaded 921 assets from the DX. The typical DX asset will save about 8 hours of work (some save as much as 36 hours!).     8 hours x 921 assets = 7,368 hours of effort saved.   At $100 per hour for a citizen developer, that's $736,800 that this one company saved by using the DX instead of trying to DIY.   In this episode of Generation Digital Workforce, we talk with Paul Nerger and Andrew Campbell, Vice President and Senior Product Marketing Manager respectively of Blue Prism's DX. Paul and Andrew talked about how to scale faster by leveraging others' dev work through the Digital Exchange.   To ensure that you never miss an episode of Generation Digital Workforce, be sure to subscribe!

Sustainable digital transformation involves much more than a plan to implement new technology. Michael Marchuk talks with Rob Maguire, a partner at Baringa, about the need to support the employees during times of change, but also about how leadership affects the entire culture of the organization. This culture tone is set by the most senior management that influences not only the management team and the companies employees, but also the customers who interact with the people and digital workers within the organization.   Here’s what we talked with Rob about: * Building a sustainable digital transformation culture * The implications for leaders who are driving digital transformation * Managing digital workers and human workers as part of the broader workforce team * How to increase the success of a digital transformation program through positive workplace culture   To ensure that you never miss an episode of Generation Digital Workforce, be sure to subscribe!

During the quarantine situation, our family has been watching all the Marvel movies in chronological order. We just watched The Avengers: Age of Ultron. So the whole robots-coming-to-life thing is very real. It's real at Blue Prism, too, but fortunately, not as scary.   The lesson works, though: When automation becomes fundamental to your business, you have to govern it well. That's why we set up a Center of Excellence.   On this episode of Generation Digital Workforce, Emma Kirby-Kidd, Customer Success Director, and Matt Juden-Bloomfield, Head of RPA at Blue Prism, discuss the lessons they've learned leading a Center of Excellence.   Here's what we talked with Emma and Matt about: * What is a Center of Excellence?* The journey Blue Prism has taken and why the Center of Excellence was pivotal* Advice for setting up and growing a Center of Excellence* How to take a Center of Excellence to the next level* Specific cases where the Center of Excellence has benefitted Blue Prism   To ensure that you never miss an episode of Generation Digital Workforce, be sure to subscribe!  Visit us on our socials for more RPA and IA top tips and regular updates: ​​🦾 Get started with SS&C Blue Prism: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3ByJorU⁠⁠ 🧑‍💻LinkedIn: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/2GP5eKt⁠⁠ 🐦Twitter: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3JHBHUM⁠⁠ 🙋‍♀️Facebook: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3LHQC2L⁠⁠ 📸Instagram: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3TgQCYW⁠⁠ 💭Blog: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3WabzFk⁠⁠ 🤩Case studies: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3VSIj6j​⁠⁠ Learn what RPA is and how it works: ⁠⁠What is RPA?
