Appian and OSTech Collaboration: A Step Towards Digital Transformation
Appian, a leader in enterprise automation, has joined forces with Outsourcing Technology Co., Ltd. (OSTech) in Japan to enhance business efficiency and reduce workload through process automation and low-code development. This partnership is poised to redefine how businesses operate, focusing on eliminating data silos and providing an integrated view of business processes.
Reducing Workload by 25%
The collaboration comes after a successful trial where OSTech implemented the Appian Platform and managed to reduce their workload by approximately 25%. This result has led to the platform's integration as a "business standardization system," operational since May 2024.
Driving Digital Transformation
Yoshiaki Kasai, President and CEO of OSTech, emphasized the importance of this partnership in their digital transformation journey. He stated, "By integrating the Appian Platform with process automation and BPMS, we're empowering businesses to achieve greater efficiency and transparency."
Protrude's Role in the Partnership
A significant element of this collaboration is Protrude, OSTech's IT integration services division, which will provide enhanced support and solutions focusing on BPMS and process automation on the Appian Platform. Protrude will offer customer-centric technical support throughout the implementation and operational phases, ensuring quick and effective issue resolution.
Appian's Vision for Japanese Businesses
Shinsaku Hashimoto, Alliance Director at Appian Japan, expressed optimism about the collaboration, highlighting the transformative potential of the Appian Platform. "We are confident that this partnership will drive significant productivity gains and enhance operational visibility for businesses in Japan," Hashimoto noted.
Understanding Appian's Low-Code Platform
For those unfamiliar, low-code platforms like Appian allow users to create applications with minimal coding. This means businesses can develop solutions faster and more efficiently, maximizing resources and improving results. Appian's platform is used by many large organizations to enhance customer experience and manage global compliance effectively.
By leveraging this technology, the partnership between Appian and OSTech is set to deliver innovative solutions, paving the way for enhanced business operations across Japan.
