CASE STUDY: AUTOMATION IN AN ELECTRICITY COMPANY'S SALES ORGANIZATION
A company focusing on electricity transmission, distribution and production.
The sales organization wanted to find a way to automatically track a separate website for tenders for public sector energy projects and select the most interesting ones from which to bid.
A robot was implemented that navigates to an open web page and captures data from the most interesting projects based on keywords defined by the organization. The captured data is stored into an interactive PowerBI-based tool. The robot enriches the information it retrieves with, for example, spatial information, so that experts are able to make better decisions based directly on the information retrieved.
Automation ensured continuous monitoring of potential projects and implemented a completely new tool for project analysis.
