About
Wim H. P. Janssen is a researcher at the intersection of auditing and automation, specializing in Robotic Process Automation (RPA), audit data extraction, and the digitization of assurance procedures. His work addresses a critical challenge in modern auditing: the efficient and reliable extraction of information from unstructured sources, particularly PDF documents, to enable automated reconciliation of audit evidence with subject matter. Janssen’s most-cited paper, “Robotic Process Automation for the Extraction of Audit Information: A Use Case” (2021, 17 citations), demonstrates a practical framework for deploying RPA to streamline recurring audit tasks, reducing manual effort and error risk. This contribution is particularly notable for bridging the gap between theoretical automation concepts and real-world audit workflows, offering a replicable model for practitioners. By focusing on the persistent bottleneck of PDF data extraction, Janssen’s work has informed both academic discourse and industry adoption of RPA in assurance contexts. His research underscores the transformative potential of automation in enhancing audit quality and efficiency, making him a key voice in the ongoing evolution of digital auditing.
