As digital transformation accelerates, organisations are seeking ways to connect automation, governance and data into a coherent strategy. Gartner’s Business Orchestration and Automation Technologies (BOAT) framework brings these elements together, aligning people, processes and platforms to drive responsible innovation.
At IRIS IMS, we explored what BOAT means for organisations in the Benelux region through a three-part article series. Each piece highlights a crucial dimension of modern automation: content, orchestration, and compliance.
