Client Background
Leading FM station in India, operates multiple programming slots daily and relies heavily on structured reporting for scheduling, ad tracking, and broadcast coordination. The organization manages large volumes of PDF-based operational data that must be consolidated into structured formats for analysis and reporting.
Challenges
Inefficiencies in manual data extraction from multiple PDF formats, which were then transferred into Excel for slot-wise radio scheduling. This process was time-consuming, repetitive, error-prone, and made tracking reports difficult to maintain consistently across teams.
Some of the Key Challenges
- Data from multiple PDF formats was manually extracted.
- Information was entered into Excel for slot-wise scheduling.
- High chances of human error during repetitive data entry.
- Lack of real-time tracking and reporting efficiency.
- Time-consuming and tedious operational workflow.
Our Solution
An RPA-based automation solution was implemented to fully streamline the workflow and eliminate manual intervention. It was designed to intelligently integrate into the existing process and ensure smooth data handling across systems.
- Bot uses regular expressions to identify specific PDF formats and trigger the correct extraction workflow.
- Extracted data is validated and stored in an SQL database for structured storage, reliability, and faster access.
- Automated reporting logic pulls required datasets from SQL and distributes reports to relevant stakeholders in real time.
Automation Benefits
Our client discovered benefits when the RPA solution was integrated into their process workflow.
