Process automation will be the engine of efficiency in 2026.
Imagine a billing manager at a major telecom provider like Rogers. Every month, they face a recurring nightmare: reconciling thousands of disputed invoices across legacy databases, manual spreadsheets, and customer service logs. A single data mismatch results in delayed payments and frustrated customers.
With accelerated digitalization and the exponential growth of data, companies must find new ways to operate with agility, precision, and lower costs. More than just a technological trend, automation has become a strategic pillar of competitiveness. It redefines internal workflows, reduces human error, and frees up time for what truly matters: delivering high-value customer experiences.
Why Process Automation is Essential in 2026
The corporate world is at a turning point. Digital transformation is redefining sectors like banking, bringing challenges but also countless opportunities. By adopting innovative technologies and rethinking business models, institutions can offer an improved customer experience, increase operational efficiency, and remain competitive.
The Fintech Disruption
The arrival of new digital competitors, such as fintechs, has caused significant disruption in the banking sector. This competition pushes traditional banks to adapt and innovate, seeking to offer increasingly relevant and differentiated solutions. This healthy competition benefits the market as a whole, encouraging constant improvements in financial experiences.
In this environment, speed of response is no longer an advantage—it is a requirement. By 2026, it is estimated that more than 70% of service companies will have their critical processes automated to keep pace with these nimble, digital-native competitors.
Process automation provides:
- Operational cost reduction of up to 40%;
- Greater consistency in delivery and service quality;
- Enhanced customer experience, thanks to agility and personalization;
- Increased scalability, allowing operations to grow without expanding overhead.

Trends Shaping the Future of Efficiency
- AI-Driven Intelligent Automation AI in 2026 doesn’t just execute tasks; it learns. Intelligent systems predict bottlenecks and suggest real-time improvements, allowing for faster, more assertive decisions.
- Hyperautomation and Integration While terms like RPA (Robotic Process Automation), BPM (Business Process Management), and Predictive AI are common in IT, for a billing or operations manager, they mean one thing: the end of “swivel-chair” work. Instead of humans manually copying data between systems, hyperautomation unifies these tools to create a single customer view. This eliminates the redundancies and “lost files” that often frustrate consumers during a support call.
- Customer-Centric Automation with hiperCCM Efficiency only matters if it impacts the customer. Automation in 2026 focuses on Customer Experience (CX). Through hiperCCM, our customer communications management solution, we make interactions more seamless and empathetic while freeing human teams for high-level strategic tasks.
