Case Study on Automation in Entertainment Merger

This case study examines the automation strategies employed by a leading media and entertainment company during its merger with two other corporations. The organization faced challenges integrating three distinct legacy systems while aiming to streamline operations. The company partnered with Automation Anywhere to implement low/no code automation, targeting high-value use cases in HR and finance, such as invoice handling and order-to-cash processes. Within the first year, 80% of the merger was automated, significantly enhancing operational efficiency and reducing costs. The initiative also empowered over 100 citizen developers to further scale automation across various departments, including corporate and production functions. The case study outlines the successful implementation of the Automation Success Platform on AWS, which facilitated the automation journey and improved compliance and accuracy. The company plans to continue its automation efforts, exploring the integration of AI to optimize processes further, particularly in legal and corporate functions.
