Background: ABC Retail is a major retail company with operations in multiple countries. The company realized that they were spending too much time and resources on repetitive tasks, such as customer service, inventory tracking, price comparison, and return processes. These tasks were time-consuming and costly, and the company decided to explore the use of RPA technology to improve their operational efficiency.
Objective: The objective of ABC Retail was to reduce the time and resources spent on repetitive tasks, increase efficiency and accuracy by using RPA, and free up employees to focus on more strategic tasks.

Implementation: ABC Retail started using eRAS to automate their repetitive tasks. They developed a strategy to automate customer service, inventory tracking, price comparison, and the return process using the RPA tool. The company successfully implemented a automation solution that helped them streamline their operations.
For customer service, a chatbot was developed that could respond to customer inquiries and complaints. The chatbot was trained to understand and interpret customer requests and respond with accurate information. Inventory tracking was automated using a program that could monitor inventory levels and generate alerts when inventory levels were low. Price comparison was automated using a program that could compare prices across multiple platforms and update the company’s pricing quickly. The return process was automated using a program that could verify product conditions and process returns. The program was trained to identify damaged products and request customer information to process returns accurately.
