Background: A betting and lottery company has three websites for betting, and it is essential that the matches and their ratios on each website are the same. Any differences between the websites result in penalties for the company. To ensure that the matches and ratios are consistent, the company needs to compare the data every hour. However, this process is challenging to perform manually.
Objective: The objective of this project is to automate the data comparison process to ensure that the matches and ratios on all three websites are the same.
Implementation: To automate the data comparison process, the company implemented a capability bot that uses web scraping technology to collect data from each website. The bot compares the collected data to ensure that the matches and ratios on all three websites are the same.
The bot is scheduled to run every hour, and if there are any differences between the websites, the bot sends an alert to the relevant team members so that they can investigate and resolve the issue.
Results: The implementation of the capability bot has resulted in several positive outcomes:
- Improved Accuracy: The bot ensures that the matches and ratios on all three websites are the same, reducing the risk of penalties for the company due to discrepancies.
- Time Savings: The automation of the data comparison process saves time for the company, as the bot is able to perform the task much faster than manual methods.
- Cost Savings: By automating the data comparison process, the company saves money that would have been spent on manual labor.
- Proactive Issue Resolution: The bot sends alerts to the relevant team members when discrepancies are detected, allowing for proactive issue resolution before penalties are imposed.
Conclusion: The implementation of the capability bot has resulted in significant improvements to the data comparison process for the betting and lottery company. The automation of the process has reduced the risk of penalties, saved time and money, and enabled proactive issue resolution. This case study highlights the benefits of automation and how it can improve business processes.
Future: The future of the automated data comparison process for the betting and lottery company looks promising. As technology continues to evolve, there will be opportunities to further improve the process. Possible future developments include the use of artificial intelligence for more accurate data collection and analysis, the implementation of blockchain technology for improved security and transparency, and the integration of the data comparison process with other business processes to create a more comprehensive and efficient system. Overall, the future of the automated data comparison process looks bright, and the company will likely continue to benefit from increased accuracy, time savings, and cost savings.
