What is Robotic Process Automation (RPA)?

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is technology that deploys software robots (bots) to automate repetitive, rule-based business tasks. These digital employees work 24/7 without errors and can operate within existing systems, just as a human user would.

For Dutch companies, RPA means a transformation in efficiency: where employees previously spent hours on data entry, invoice processing or system integrations, software robots now take over these tasks completely. The result? Substantial time savings and improved accuracy*.

individual results vary per organization and process scope.

๐Ÿค– How do software robots work?

Software robots mimic human actions within applications and that starts with:

โ€ข Reading screen data via OCR and computer vision
โ€ข Applying rules for complex decision-making
โ€ข Integrating systems without API changes
โ€ข Completing processes with complete audit trails

Modern RPA combines this basic functionality with AI technologies such as machine learning and natural language processing, making robots increasingly intelligent and capable of performing more complex tasks.

Frequently asked questions about RPA

What is the difference between RPA and traditional automation?

RPA works on the presentation layer of existing systems and mimics human actions, while traditional automation requires deep system integrations. RPA is faster to implement, less invasive and can work with legacy systems without code changes. This makes RPA ideal for Dutch companies with existing IT infrastructure.

How long does an RPA implementation typically take in the Netherlands?

A complete RPA implementation takes an average of 6-8 weeks, from initial conversation to production. Simple processes can be operational within 2 weeks, more complex workflows with multiple systems require 8-12 weeks. The speed depends on process complexity and stakeholder availability.

Implementation timeframe based on average project duration with Dutch clients, individual projects may vary depending on organization size and complexity.

What do RPA implementations cost for Dutch companies?

RPA costs vary from โ‚ฌ5,000 to โ‚ฌ50,000+ depending on platform and complexity. Open source solutions have no license costs, commercial platforms start around โ‚ฌ15/month (Power Automate) to โ‚ฌ3,000+/year (UiPath). Most Dutch companies achieve ROI within 6-12 months.

Financial results dependent on starting situation, implementation quality and market factors. No guarantee on specific ROI percentages.

Which processes are most suitable for RPA automation?

Ideal RPA processes are high-volume, rule-based and repetitive. Invoice processing, data entry, report generation and system integrations perform excellently. Processes that require human creativity, complex decision-making or emotional intelligence are less suitable for automation.

What about GDPR compliance with Dutch RPA?

EasyData ensures full GDPR compliance through Dutch datacenter locations, privacy-by-design implementation and complete audit trails. RPA processes are designed according to European privacy standards with data minimization, transparency and user rights as the starting point. Registered under number FG001914 with the Dutch Data Protection Authority.

Do RPA robots replace human employees in the Netherlands?

Dutch companies primarily use RPA for task enrichment, not replacement. 95% of organizations do not execute layoffs during RPA implementation. Employees are relocated to more strategic roles such as customer interaction, analysis and innovation, while robots take over boring, repetitive tasks.
