Federal government funds research project<\/h3>\n
Artificial intelligence is on everyone's lips. The task now is to research beneficial application scenarios. The KI.RPA research project is dedicated to this. The five research partners of KI.RPA are the Technical University of Darmstadt, the August Wilhelm Scheer Institute (AWSi), Deutsche Telekom Service, the Process Analytics Factory and the Darmstadt-based robotics specialist Servicetrace. They are specifically concerned with the development of self-learning software robots and are combining artificial intelligence (AI) with two other topics that are currently the subject of much discussion among experts: Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and Process Mining.<\/p>\n
The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is supporting the KI.RPA research project as part of its funding initiative for innovative SMEs called KMU-innovativ. The project aims to make intelligent process automation available to SMEs by combining advanced technologies so that smaller companies can also benefit quickly and easily from this innovation. The vision of KMU-innovativ and KI.RPA is to create a system that independently recognizes and automates recurring processes instead of just executing them automatically.<\/p>\n

Smart switch to S\/4 Hana<\/h3>\n
Switching to S\/4 Hana at the push of a button is not feasible. The switch to the new SAP world has too many dimensions. Intelligent, customer-specific solutions are required. With the s.m.a.r.t. portfolio, cbs Corporate Business Solutions offers a customized path to S\/4. s.m.a.r.t. literally stands for the components of a comprehensive offering with a new project approach as the solution core: Strategy (strategic preparation), migration software (cbs Enterprise Transformer), Approach (project approach), Reference Model (project type-specific procedures) and Team (global consulting team). The cbs portfolio serves as the basis for the s.m.a.r.t. S\/4 Hana Migration Approach, enabling companies to migrate to S\/4 with maximum added value and without technical restrictions. This gives them the chance to get rid of ballast. The customer can get rid of obsolete data, outdated structures and reports, developments and processes that are no longer required. The customer can also transfer historical data; this is impossible with traditional migration methods.<\/p>\n
