When someone told you to copy something, it meant writing it out longhand or using a typewriter. Analyzing government financial information was perilous at best, given the inability to readily correlate data and with limited assurance about its reliability and completeness. Audits seemingly took forever and were 100 percent labor intensive. We’ve come so far; but where will the future take us? Today, we’re on the brink of another quantum leap in our profession that will revolutionize the art of the possible. This article will focus on the movement to intelligent automation, or the “March of Robots,” and the impact it will have on transforming all facets of financial and program management and auditing. We’ll demystify intelligent automation, discuss its importance and benefits, examine the intelligent automation spectrum, highlight its impact on auditing and provide perspectives on the way ahead.1","PeriodicalId":351644,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Government Financial Management","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124825112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
