Setting up An RPA Program at Mallinckrodt Pharma

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has been a game-changer for the finance function, helping to reduce cycle times, save costs, and clear space for value-added analysis and insight. At the same time, setting up an RPA program in an area like treasury is no easy task—It is a significant undertaking that requires a strong foundation in terms of people, process, and technology. This case study chronicles the journey and lessons learned from Ravi Iyer (Assistant Treasurer, Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals) for how the organization implemented RPA in treasury. The case study provides an overview of RPA along with describing the requirements, considerations, and resources that organizations need to be thinking about as they explore and implement RPA within their finance functions, and in the treasury department in particular.
