EAST BRUNSWICK, N.J. and BANGALORE, India, Sept. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

     Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT) (BSE: 507685) (NSE: WIPRO), a leading global 
information technology, consulting and business process services company, today 
announced that it has been positioned as a Leader in The Forrester New Wave™: 
RPA Service Providers In Healthcare, Q3 2020.
     
     The pandemic has accelerated the adoption of automation across the 
Healthcare & Life Sciences (HCLS) value chain. Forrester initiated this 
research to get a deeper insight into how automation projects are unfolding in 
the HCLS industry. The report evaluated the current offering, market presence 
and strategy of 12 of the most significant emerging Robotic Process Automation 
(RPA) service providers in HCLS.
     
     In addition to being named a leader, Wipro received differentiated ratings 
in the intelligent automation, attended automation, unattended automation, HCLS 
Automation, Knowledge Transfer and commercial model criteria. The Forrester 
report stated that, "Of all the vendors [Forrester] evaluated, Wipro has the 
most experience building bots for HCLS clients and delivering automations to 
HCLS clients under outcomes-based procurement models." The report also noted, 
"Clients said that Wipro is their trusted strategic advisor on new [Artificial 
Intelligence] (AI) technologies and emerging governance models." 
     
     "The COVID-19 pandemic is forcing healthcare organizations (HCOs) to scale 
operations to care for an unprecedented number of patients. The entire 
healthcare value chain is under scrutiny for opportunities to increase 
throughput and carve out cost. Life sciences organizations face pressure to 
accelerate research, manufacturing, and distribution…COVID-19 will eventually 
pass, but the automation tools and strategies being deployed today are here to 
stay," says the report authored by Jeff Becker, Senior Analyst, Forrester 
Research. The report later notes, "Wipro is an all-purpose service provider; 
it's a strong fit for enterprises that need strategic governance advice or 
those that just need a team of bot developers willing to work at risk."
     
     Bill Stith – Senior Vice President and Global Head, Health Business Unit, 
Wipro Limited said, "As we navigate the current challenges, we continue to 
invest in co-innovation with our clients and extended partner ecosystem to 
empower the global health workforce. We provide automation architectures, 
governance frameworks and machine-learning-based decision management which can 
be scaled at velocity, so their time is freed to address greater health 
challenges. We continue to discover, analyze and design new automated processes 
and intuitive artificial intelligence interventions, across the care continuum 
from clinical trials to care delivery to claims processing, offering these 
through creative servicing models. We believe this recognition exemplifies our 
market leadership in this segment of digital health."
