Case Study
Automating Form Processing & Customer Communication for a Financial Services Provider
Client Overview
A well-known financial services provider specializing in loan management, account servicing, and repayment coordination was managing a high volume of manual form-based requests. The team received a mix of E-form and Smart-Form submissions, each requiring manual verification, data entry, and personalized communication—leading to delays and potential errors.
Challenges
- Manual Case Sorting & Prioritization – Requests received via email had to be manually sorted based on FIFO (First-In, First-Out) and priority dates, leading to workflow inefficiencies.
- Time-Consuming Data Entry – Analysts manually transcribed account details from paper documents into smart forms, consuming valuable time.
- Multi-Scenario Processing – Requests included regular account updates, offset adjustments, team changes, and repayment updates, all requiring separate steps in the live application.
- Customer Communication Delays – Once requests were processed, confirmation letters had to be drafted and sent to customers manually, further stretching resources.
Solutions : Intelligent RPA for End-to-End Form Processing
To overcome these challenges, RESOLVENT implemented a comprehensive RPA solution that automated the end-to-end E-form and Smart-Form processing workflow, improving accuracy, efficiency, and turnaround time.
Key Automation Capabilities:
- Email Monitoring & Request Sorting – The bot automatically scanned incoming emails for form requests, sorted cases based on FIFO and priority date, and organized the queue accordingly.
- E-Form Extraction & Smart-Form Preparation – The bot automatically picked up E-form data and supported analysts by transferring account numbers from scanned/paper documents into the smart form fields.
- Field Verification & Request Classification – – Intelligent validation ensured key fields were correctly populated. Based on the request type, the bot proceeded to handle regular updates, offset requests, team changes, or repayments.
