Automation COE Market

Global Automation COE Market Size (2024 to 2032)

The size of the global automation COE market was worth USD 0.27 billion in 2023. The global market is predicted to reach USD 0.37 billion in 2024 and USD 4.56 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 36.90% from 2024 to 2032.  

The automation COE is an internal, autonomous, and scalable team of experts who operate and maintain software robots. It enables organizations to accelerate robotic process automation by establishing standard RPA processes and procedures, sharing best practices, promoting the adoption of standard technologies, and creating a robust governance model that can scale to the enterprise level.

MARKET DRIVERS

With an automated operating model, a decentralized ROI approach can quickly spiral out of control with efficient process automation choices, RPA acquisition, training, and support. In addition, business units often choose projects that are particularly well suited for automation to achieve a quick return on investment. Companies often shy away from more complex strategic projects requiring IT support. However, more significant ROI requires more extensive and more complex efforts. A study conducted in 2021 shows that RPA can reduce annual errors more efficiently than most automated processes. It is estimated that human error and poor data quality cost businesses billions of dollars annually; RPA can generate high-quality data as the bot does not mise or duplicate data and crates event logos for additional analysis and auditing.

Automation COEs replace traditional data access methods to ensure that only the correct number of people have access to the data generated and the risks associated with the security of specific data where governance services await market growth. Additionally, many companies are embracing automation technology with an agile COE that organizes the frameworks and processes and provides the tools to achieve business objectives and improve profitability, which is anticipated to boost the market.

Business continuity with RPA maintenance is supporting the global market growth. A 2021 research study found that automation opens autonomy and job creation opportunities. As per the study, automation will lead to more excellent value for employees through increased opportunities to collaborate internally and externally, redesign services, think about and solve more complex work-related problems, report reduced repetitive work, and add solutions and innovations. Automation will ultimately slow the rate at which companies hire employees to grow. This efficiency gain will enable businesses to employ smaller, happier, and more productive employees. This provides many opportunities to reduce chum.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

High development and deployment costs is one of the major factors hampering the growth of the global automation COE market growth. This makes up a large portion of the total cost of ownership of an RPA program and can represent 40% to 50% of start-up costs. Developers are often informed about automation design through old paper PDDs or SDDs. Without proper governance mechanisms, these automation efforts are doomed to failure. The total cost ownership of an RPA program is 65% due to high development and deployment costs and time and money spent on maintenance and support.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Global Automation COE Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a positive impact on the growth of the automation COE market. Many industries have started working from home, reducing employee stress and the cost of resources companies deploy. Several end-user industries have adopted automated solutions to improve agility, maintain competitive advantage, and increase revenue, impacting market growth.
