“Dependable and comprehensive data is at the core of successful automation,” shared Andrew Hausman, General Manager of Dun & Bradstreet’s Finance Solutions. “When fueled by analytics and insight, automation can not only reduce operational costs and increase efficiency, but it can help open new avenues of growth across the business.”

Eighty-three percent (83%) of respondents are currently utilizing some form of automation within their team processes and believe it is improving their function’s efficiency by giving employees more time for value-added tasks.
