Solution

KPMG built a Microsoft-based workflow around Azure OpenAI Service because Brad Brown, Global Technology leader and CIO for Tax at KPMG, and Rafiq Jalal, Principal at KPMG, Cloud and Data Strategy, spoke with us about how KPMG is putting Azure OpenAI.... Source information is captured from frontline systems, documents, transactions, images, or conversations and then processed with cloud services that classify, summarize, model, or route the data for downstream use. The resulting records are stored in shared business or analytical systems and surfaced through apps, dashboards, or case workflows so staff can move from manual review to faster action while still keeping a governed human-in-the-loop process. This turns scattered data into an operational workflow rather than a static report, making the same platform useful for both daily execution and future scaling, and This is what they told us in that conversation as summarized by Azure OpenAI Service.
