Case Study: GEA Group achieves finance automation and operational savings with Automation Anywhere

GEA Group saves 6,000+ hours with Automation Anywhere

GEA Americas, a division of the GEA Group, faced challenges with fragmented systems, talent gaps, and inefficient data processes within its finance department. To pivot to a leaner structure, they partnered with Automation Anywhere to implement an intelligent automation solution to overcome employee resistance to change and meet stringent data protection requirements.

Automation Anywhere's solution began with automating high-volume freight invoicing and reporting processes, which generated internal momentum and led to a citizen-led development model. The results were significant, with over 180 automations deployed or in the pipeline, saving more than 6,000 hours and $400,000 in operational savings. This proven ROI led to greater adoption across the company, making intelligent automation a fundamental tenet for goal attainment.
