An executive from IT consulting firm ZAG Technical Services will lead a session at the Food Northwest Process & Packaging Expo this week detailing the uses of robotic process automation.

Thuan Ngo, vice president of data and software services, will lead “How to use software robots to automate repetitive staff workloads in manufacturing,” a session presented from the perspective of robot workers.

The expo will be held in Portland, Oregon from April 4-6.

Business case studies will be presented to show how companies are leveraging modern technologies such as RPA to achieve business outcomes including improved profitability and reduced waste.

“The real benefit of business automation is not only improved productivity and efficiency but also the ability to empower employees to engage in more meaningful work and have a greater impact for your business,” Ngo said in a news release.

ZAG representatives will also share insights on cyber resilience, business automation and digital transformation at the expo.

“We provide solutions for clients across the supply chain, with many involved in the digital transformation of their business,” Patrick Day, director of client strategy, said. “Modern IT is no longer just a guy that gets your computer back online, but a team of professionals who understand how technology delivers on your business objectives.”
