WaTech Enterprise Automation is a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) tool for end-to-end high-scale automation that allows customers to securely deploy, manage, monitor, and optimize their entire automation life cycle and secure customer robot workforce from a central location. The WaTech Enterprise Automation Platform utilizes the UiPath software as a service (SaaS) managed by WaTech on behalf of state agencies. Robotic process automation (RPA) is a software technology that makes it easy to build, deploy, and manage software robots that emulate human actions interacting with digital systems and software. Just like people, software robots can do things like understand what’s on a screen, complete the right keystrokes, navigate systems, identify, and extract data, and perform a wide range of defined actions.
