Application of robotic process automation (RPA) for supply chain management, smart transportation and logistics

Abstract

Transportation is the biggest problem of each country. Each human being is associated with transportation directly or indirectly in their life. They want to reduce the pressure of transportation such as waiting for time, stress, staff management, and their work-life balance. The role of technology has also reduced these problems in transportation. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) helps in freights order routing, making reporting automated, management of freights, driver feedback, better decision making, the accuracy of inventory management can be enhanced, automated tracking can be done through which checking transport calls can be reduced, scheduling the shipment and tracking it, invoicing management, procurement management. The tools such as robotic process automation and artificial intelligence, have also given the freedom to minimize these problems. With the use of robotic process automation, various problems of transportation in airlines can also be minimized. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) can be helpful in airline transportation like departmental work packages can be created, the file can be fetched from previous systems, travelers can be notified, data can be managed, scheduling of crew can be done.
