Automation Anywhere CoE Manager gives your organization visibility across the end-to-end automation lifecycle, so you can scale your automation program efficiently and maximize return on investment.
Overview
CoE Manager is available out of the box and requires minimal configuration for first-time use. In addition to program management capabilities, it provides a consistent and repeatable way of assessing automation opportunities to minimize variations and maximize return on investment (ROI). ROI is measured in terms of time and cost saved, as well as user-defined KPIs such as operational agility, cash flow, and sustainability.
CoE Manager is powered by the Shibumi platform, an enterprise program management solution, and is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). For reference information on AWS regions and availability zones, see AWS Regions and Availability Zones.
