Holcim Automation 360 Cloud Case Study

This case study details Holcim's implementation of Automation 360 Cloud to enhance efficiency in its global shared processes. Holcim, a leading building materials company with a workforce of 63,000 across 61 countries, faced challenges in onboarding new geographies due to recent mergers. The company successfully automated processes such as customer creation and credit limit assignment, reducing the time taken from days to hours. The automation process involved standardizing data sharing between operating companies and utilizing bots to streamline operations. The results included a 40% increase in overall efficiency and the identification of optimization areas. Holcim plans to continue expanding its automation efforts, targeting nearly 100 shared processes globally and aiming to automate daily invoice processing using optical character recognition. The collaboration with Automation Anywhere and AWS is positioned to support Holcim's commitment to innovative and sustainable building solutions.
