PRGX agility , immediacy , and efficiency . After I inquired how PRGX uses AI to bring advantages to their client companies , Green answered with characteristic enthusiasm . “[ AI ] has been a huge time saver ,” he said . “ It no longer takes one person to do this and then pass it off to someone else , and someone else after that . Now , because of the efficiencies of automation and computing power , we can run these [ processes ] in parallel . A one-month transformation is now a matter of days or hours .”
Updating digital processes allowed PRGX to decrease the gap between the time when data arrives and when they identify areas of profit leakage . AI also allowed them to look for duplicates and common data errors within their audits . “ We went from a billion rows in a spreadsheet to a hundred million rows ,” Green said . “ And now , through AI , we ’ re able to say : we know these are good claims .”

From that point , their auditor can take the data and examine it in a compressed “When you ’ re transforming , people often get left out of the equation . So I make sure that my people have access to the tools , training , and resources to understand these new technologies . They ’ re not employees ; they ’ re team members ”
