This is Part 1 of a multi-part blog series in which we deep-dive into demystifying RPA migration using Blueprint Assess. Each post explores how to better understand, estimate, and plan your automation migration strategy with data-driven confidence.
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has changed the way organizations manage repetitive tasks. As the technology matures, many businesses are looking to migrate from legacy tools like Blue Prism, Automation Anywhere, or older versions of UiPath to more flexible, cloud-ready platforms like Microsoft Power Automate Desktop (PAD). The challenge? Understanding exactly what you’re working with before making the leap.
That’s where Blueprint Assess comes in.
Blueprint Assess dives deep into your existing bot estate to deliver detailed metrics and visualizations. It helps uncover insights on:
-
Bot Complexity: Whether you’re analyzing a single automation or the entire estate, you can switch between CallTree and Process views to assess complexity at a granular or high level.
-
Application Usage: View how bots interact with native apps, external web applications, and UI layers—all ranked by usage and potential risk.
-
Maintainability & Risk: Metrics on code quality, compiler errors, and TODO items help evaluate how maintainable and migration-ready a bot is.
-
Compliance Violations: Identify rules that your bots currently violate and whether those issues need addressing before migration.
-
Reuse & Cloud Potential: Blueprint surfaces opportunities to reuse existing flows and identifies components that are cloud-ready.
It even auto-generates high-level diagrams of what your bots do and how they’re structured—a huge win for onboarding and stakeholder clarity.
Why It Matters
Before you can migrate, you need to understand the scope. Blueprint's dashboards eliminate the guesswork, giving you the power to prioritize, plan, and de-risk your migration with confidence.
Coming Up: In Part 2, we’ll explore how Blueprint turns these insights into time and effort estimates you can use to build a project plan.
