Healthcare, banking, manufacturing, insurance, public sector, savings: every project starts with a specific operational challenge and is measured by its results.
Healthcare · Intelligent automation
Ramsay Santé streamlines its operations with Novelis
Ramsay Santé wanted lasting gains in operational efficiency, consistent service quality and less unnecessary spending. It chose Novelis to implement an intelligent automation solution.
The challenge
Ramsay Santé, France's leading private hospital group, set out to simplify complex procedures and eliminate repetitive tasks using attended and unattended automation, intelligent document processing (IDP) and AI.
The solution
Scoping and functional design workshops to select the processes to automate
Bot build and deployment
Hands-on support after go-live, followed by monitoring, maintenance and KPI tracking
The results
A first phase, then an expansion to about 50 strategic processes across finance and HR. New automations are now in design.

Banking · RPA
CMB Monaco automates the control and validation of trading orders
A Monaco-based private bank since 1976 and a member of the Mediobanca group, CMB Monaco launched an automation project to free its teams from repetitive work and make controls on sensitive transactions more reliable.
The challenge
Every trading order had to be matched against counterparty confirmations before validation. Two operators spent their entire day on it, handling 4,000 to 6,000 orders a day during the pandemic, with no way to hire.
The solution
A bot ingests confirmations received through Swift or Excel, checks 14 to 15 criteria per order across some twenty screens of the core banking system, validates compliant orders and generates a report every hour.
The results
An iterative, building-block approach led by the employees themselves: the bot supports the team rather than replacing it. A dashboard gives managers better visibility.

“With the Novelis teams, we turned a regulatory constraint into an opportunity […]. Novelis guided our employees through the change, and the phased approach let us put the first automated processes into production very quickly.”
Manufacturing · IDP and automation
Nexans automates customer order entry
For Nexans, a global leader in cables and electrical systems, Novelis automated the reading of orders received by email and their entry into the sales ERP.
The challenge
With smaller sales administration teams across Europe, Nexans needed to process orders faster and cut manual entry errors in its SAP ERP.
The solution
Automatic reading of incoming emails that contain purchase orders
ABBYY FlexiCapture configuration, with checks against ERP data
Archiving in SharePoint by company, year and supplier
ERP integration through the existing electronic data interchange (EDI)
The results
Each order is now processed and verified automatically in just a few minutes on average. Nexans handles more orders without adding staff.
“Rolling out FlexiCapture with expert help from Novelis dramatically cut customer order entry times, especially for orders with hundreds of lines. They now reach SAP in a few minutes, when manual entry sometimes took 4 hours.”
Insurance · Process intelligence
Process intelligence streamlines a life insurance application journey
An insurance and savings provider launched a major operational efficiency program, starting with its policy application process.
The challenge
A journey spanning several levels (sales reps, back-office staff, core system), disparate tools that hid how the process really ran, long lead times, high costs and strict compliance requirements.
The solution
A process intelligence solution mapped the journey as it actually runs, pinpointed the steps to optimize or automate, flagged deviations from the reference process and tracked gains in real time.
The results
Three key steps were automated. Team training brought process execution into line. The customer experience improved and application volumes grew.

Public sector · Architecture
The Conseil d'État redesigns the architecture of its litigation IT systems
The Conseil d'État, France's Council of State, turned to Novelis to evolve its IT systems step by step while integrating aging, disparate applications.
The challenge
Siloed applications that were hard to maintain and evolve, performance issues and a limited user experience. The goal: a modern architecture built on APIs and microservices.
The solution
New IT architecture master plan and multi-year transformation roadmap
IT governance rules
Technical design of the microservices and APIs
Front-end and back-end development of the new applications and portals
The results
A faster transformation that stays under control, a flexible architecture that API management opens to partners and other ministries, and maintainability secured through preventive work.
15+microservices being deployed
12,000+person-days of work on the new IT systems
“Novelis brought its expertise to support the Conseil d'État's IT department in the architecture and transformation study for the litigation IT systems. […] The transition takes business, technical and security constraints into account.”
Savings · Architecture and agility
APICIL Épargne modernizes its IT architecture
With the goal of becoming France's leading life insurer, APICIL Épargne, the wealth management arm of the APICIL group, launched a major program to modernize, containerize and redesign its systems.
The challenge
Become a hub that exposes its services to partners, sell its products across multiple channels, deliver fast, and run on an architecture that makes updates and migrations easier.
The solution
New cloud-ready deployment architecture
Application components adapted to Docker containers
Build pipeline with multiple environments
Cutover plan, prepared and executed
The results
A redesigned system, a project run entirely in agile, a dedicated team handling operational maintenance at every sprint, and a much lighter operations workload.
