A Holistic Approach to RPA Lifecycle Management

Maintaining a resilient, adaptable, and high-performing RPA estate requires more than initial deployment; it demands a comprehensive approach to lifecycle management. Without such an approach, RPA deployments often encounter issues like brittle bots and rising maintenance costs, which can limit their effectiveness over time. The Blueprint Suite provides an integrated solution to these challenges, offering tools for seamless migration, continuous assessment, optimization, and proactive management.

Key Features of Blueprint in Managing the Full RPA Lifecycle

Blueprint offers a range of features that simplify and enhance the management of RPA estates, supporting your automate program with tools for visibility, migration, compliance, and continuous improvement:

1. Unified View of Automation Estate
   With Blueprint, organizations gain complete visibility into their automation estate. The platform offers a consolidated view of bots across various environments, supported by GenAI-powered natural language queries that answer questions and provide insights on-demand. This visibility is essential for understanding bot performance and identifying dependencies, enabling a proactive approach to lifecycle management, minimizing downtime and increasing ROI.

2. Automated Documentation and Knowledge Sharing
   Blueprint facilitates easy knowledge transfer between stakeholders by generating natural-language descriptions of each bot’s purpose and structure, even creating process diagrams and functional summaries for each stage. By democratizing access to this information, Blueprint allows team members outside of development to understand and manage bots effectively. Furthermore, Blueprint continuously updates these documents, so specifications always reflect the most current state of each bot.

3. Effortless Bot Migration through BlueprintMIGRATE
   Converting bots from legacy platforms to modern ones can be complex and costly--often a deterrent for organizations considering a new RPA platform. However, Blueprint’s MIGRATE functionality is designed to streamline bot migration, making the transition from platforms like UiPath to Microsoft Power Automate Desktop (PAD) more efficient and at a fraction of the cost. By reusing and replacing code through mapping rules, Blueprint minimizes the risks and resources involved in migration, reducing both disruption and the effort required for large-scale automation shifts. 

4. Ongoing Assessment with BlueprintASSESS
   What sets Blueprint ASSESS apart is its continuous value throughout the lifecycle of each bot. Initially, it provides a thorough analysis of bots to determine migration needs, but its utility extends beyond the initial assessment. BlueprintASSESS consistently evaluates automations as environments and requirements change, identifying new opportunities for optimization, simplifying workflows, and ensuring bots maintain top performance over time.

5. Collaborative Compliance Monitoring
   For compliance-conscious industries, Blueprint offers robust collaboration and documentation tools. In-line discussions, digital approvals, and real-time compliance checks ensure each automation meets regulatory standards while maintaining efficient workflows. Blueprint even flags sensitive data like financial or personal information within bots, helping organizations safeguard compliance and security at every stage.

6. Proactive Quality Assurance and Change Management
   Blueprint’s automated testing capabilities support proactive quality management, allowing organizations to schedule tests at regular intervals and address issues before they impact production. Blueprint also offers comprehensive change management, tracking how and when bots interact with various applications. This functionality minimizes the risk of failures from unforeseen changes, supporting a consistent, reliable automation environment.

BlueprintASSESS: A Tool for Continuous Improvement

Blueprint ASSESS is not limited to a single phase of the RPA lifecycle. Instead, it becomes an ongoing resource for bot health monitoring, continually generating insights into performance, efficiency, and compliance. Organizations can periodically revisit their bots with BlueprintASSESS to refine workflows, adapt to new business requirements, and unlock additional value from their automation investments. This approach ensures bots are always aligned with strategic goals, delivering continuous ROI.
