Client Overview

The client is a US-based enterprise managing Treasury Operations, Workers’ Compensation, and Risk Management (GRMC) across the Americas, EU, and other global regions. Their operations include claim filing, wage disbursement, intercompany balance monitoring (IHB), regulatory reporting, and investment accounting integrations via Clearwater.

Key Takeaways

  • Achieved 60K+ hours saved and $863K+ cost reduction in 12 months
  • Identified 20–40% potential reduction in automation licensing costs
  • Improved resilience with AI Agent-powered auto-healing automation
  • Reduced operational disruption caused by UI changes
  • Enabled scalable, AI-driven automation architecture
  • Built a future-ready roadmap with Amazon Quick Automate
As automation became central to the client’s Treasury and Risk operations, their reliance on legacy RPA infrastructure began to expose limitations in scalability, cost efficiency, and resilience. Manual dependencies across non-API systems, combined with increasing licensing costs and maintenance overhead, created a pressing need for transformation.
Accelirate partnered with the organization to evaluate and modernize their automation ecosystem using Amazon Quick Automate, an AI Agent-powered automation platform. The client selected this approach due to its auto-healing capabilities, natural language automation, embedded AI, and cost optimization potential, enabling a shift from fragile, UI-dependent workflows to a more intelligent and resilient automation framework.

Strengthening Operational Stability by Replacing Fragile Automation Systems with AI Agents

Despite strong automation adoption, the client faced increasing operational and financial strain. Rising licensing costs (~20% YoY), fragile UI-dependent workflows, and inefficient license allocation created sustainability concerns. A minor UI change in the Origami platform triggered 30 automation failures, requiring 16 hours of fixes and causing 77 hours of productivity loss. Additionally, reliance on non-API systems meant automation was not optional; it was critical for compliance, wage processing, and financial reconciliation. Any disruption risked operational paralysis, regulatory penalties, and delayed employee services.
