Customer Case Study: Harnessing AI: Advancing Operational Efficiency with Intelligent Document Processing
Client:
Our client is a burgeoning online retail platform offering a diverse range of products to a vast customer base.
Business Problem:
The exponential growth in customer orders led to an overwhelming volume of invoices, purchase orders, and shipping documents that required processing. The manual handling of these documents was not only labor-intensive but also error-prone, leading to delays in order fulfillment and impacting customer satisfaction.
Solution:
Client partnered with ScaleXM.ai to deploy the Intelligent Document Processing Automation platform. To further enhance document processing capabilities, we integrated ChatGPT platform, thereby leveraging the complementary strengths of our solution and Generative AI. This synergy facilitated the automation of data extraction and processing from various document types, while also enabling the generation of automated responses and notifications to customers and stakeholders, significantly streamlining the order-to-cash and Procure to Pay cycles.
Execution Steps:
Needs Assessment and Planning:
- Initial meetings were held between our client and our team to understand the specific document processing and customer communication challenges faced by our client.
- A comprehensive plan was devised to implement SCALExM.ai's Intelligent Document Processing platform integrated with Microsoft Azure’s Generative AI and other AI services.
Customization and Development:
- The platform was customized to meet the unique requirements of our client, including the specific types of documents and data to be processed.
- Microsoft Azure's AI services were configured to generate automated responses and notifications based on the extracted and processed data.
Integration and Testing:
- The solution was integrated with our client’s existing systems, ensuring seamless data flow and operations.
- Extensive testing was conducted to verify the accuracy of data extraction, processing, and the appropriateness of generated responses and notifications.
Training and Optimization:
- Our client's staff were trained on utilizing the new system, including monitoring and managing the automated document processing and communication workflows.
- Continuous optimization was carried out based on feedback from our client and performance data, ensuring the system delivered the desired outcomes.
Deployment and Monitoring:
- The solution was deployed in a phased manner to ensure smooth transition and to allow for any necessary adjustments.
- Ongoing monitoring and support were provided by SCALExM.ai ensuring optimal performance and addressing any issues promptly.
Evaluation and Feedback:
- Post-implementation reviews were conducted to evaluate the success of the project against the defined objectives.
- Feedback was collected from our client’s staff and customers to understand the impact of the new system and to identify areas for further improvement.
Outcome:
- Operational Speed: The combined AI solution led to an 80% reduction in document processing time, dramatically accelerating order fulfillment.
- Enhanced Accuracy: The AI-driven platform ensured over 99% accuracy in document processing, minimizing errors in order handling and invoicing.
