With hybrid offices becoming more common and businesses tightening their spending, a lot of us are looking to managed print services and our own needs to figure out what devices to maintain in the office. While there could be an argument made for more specialized printers and scanners, several companies are looking to A4-sized multifunctional peripherals (MFPs) to outfit their spaces and to provide for their employees.

 

But why? In this infographic, we decided to look at some of our data points from our Future of Work study to see if we could shine a light on this issue.

A KEY POINT: Agentic AI Killed the Robotic Process Automation Star

We are in a golden age of automation solutions for a variety of workplace solutions. Robotic process automation (RPA) can mimic human actions like copying/pasting data, filing out forms, or even clicking buttons. Other forms of artificial intelligence (AI) can use document management systems to transform into collaborative hubs of data to help streamline operations and ensure compliance for a variety of regulations. Then there is the arrival of “agentic AI,” which refers to a workflow system that can work with a degree of autonomy to make independent decisions regarding data, plan tasks, and even perform actions beyond presets to help complete tasks with minimal human interactions.

How AI Is Transforming Print and Document Workflows Across the Workplace

Across industries and company sizes, artificial intelligence (AI) is changing how information is captured, processed, shared, and secured. Whether it’s a financial firm reconciling monthly statements, a hospital managing patient intake forms, or a law office sorting through case files, AI is helping reimagine document and print workflows. The proof is in how IT decision makers are investing in and implementing AI. A recent Keypoint Intelligence end user survey shows that 95% of US businesses are at least exploring AI for document workflows and automation, moving away from manual tasks and siloed systems. The goal is to make workflows smarter, faster, and more secure. For the print and workplace technology channel, this shift represents a timely opportunity to reposition print and imaging solutions at the heart of an enterprise’s digital transformation (DX).
