Current Process of RCU Audits
Currently, the RCU team carries out audits to ensure that set processes/policies are being followed by the branches and yards. The audits are performed end to end manually by using a huge database in excel sheets from data allocation to data collation and analysis. Most of the delays and errors in the processes are due to its high reliance on human intervention and therefore, the process requires automation.

Challenges

Challenges
Data Allocation, Data Collation & Analysis Done Manually for Audits

The wider the network and more the number of people on the field, the bigger is the challenge in collecting data from various sources. It was even a bigger issue of collocation and analyzing them as it was done manually. This became quite a tedious and time-taking process.

Issues & Delays Arising Due to Human Intervention in The Process

With the rising manual work and human intervention came many issues and delays. This was becoming a huge problem for them as it was taking them a long time to tackle the issues caused by vivid field personnel and then righting the wrongs was taking them many hours if not days.

Ease of Process For All The Parties Involved in The Audits

The process of auditing became mundane and was costing them a lot of time and resources. The delay in the collection and collocation of data was becoming a major problem and was also causing delays in the whole process of RCU audits.
