Automating processes is no longer an option. More and more companies are looking to introduce robotization into their day-to-day operations, in order to increase efficiency, cope with labor shortages or make operations more reliable. But one reality is still holding back many projects, particularly for SMEs: high initial investment costs, lengthy deployment times, and a lack of specialized in-house resources.
At TechNuCom, we don’t see automation as a complex and risky undertaking. That’s why we propose a different approach: robotics as a service, known by the acronym RaaS.
RaaS: a model born in industry, now in full evolution
Originally, the term RaaS (Robot as a Service) refers to a subscription model for physical robots used in industry or logistics. Rather than buying a machine, companies pay a monthly fee to use it, including maintenance, updates and support.
This model has proved its worth. Today, it extends to robotic process automation (RPA), with the same principles: immediate access, outsourcing of technical complexity, pay-as-you-go pricing and ongoing operational support.
This is increasingly referred to as RPA as a Service: a form of RaaS applied to software robots, capable of automatically executing repetitive tasks in information systems with cloud solutions and low-code interfaces.
These approaches have transformed robotization into a flexible, affordable solution, particularly for SMEs:
- No CAPEX required
- Accelerated deployment
- Maintenance included, without internal mobilization
- Rapidly measurable ROI
Our solution
At TechNuCom, we apply these principles to the automation of robotic processes. In concrete terms, we deploy supervised or autonomous software robots, according to our customers’ needs:
- Robots on user workstations, to assist teams in their daily tasks
- Robots on servers or in the cloud, to automate entire workflows in the background, without human intervention.
All in a Robot-as-a-Service model, designed to simplify access to automation:
- License fees included
- Integrated maintenance packages
- Initial configuration possible
- 100% of OPEX implementation costs over 24 to 48 months
In short: practical, rapid, controlled and non-intrusive automation.
Robotization is no longer the preserve of large companies or technically intensive projects. The RaaS model now enables SMEs to automate their business processes at their own pace, without tying up capital, without technical overload, and with constant support.
