Business Process and Systems Streamlining/Automation

Business process automation is the use of technology to execute recurring tasks or processes in a business where manual effort can be replaced. It is done to minimize costs, increase efficiency, and streamline processes.

I’ve always been keen to use technology to improve processes and increase efficiencies. Working with users and business leaders to improve business operations, and their processes, by utilizing technologies to the best of their ability to get the most out of it and get the best ROI for businesses.

What business processes should you automate?

Business process automation is not restricted to a handful of functions. Some factors that can indicate the need for automation include

  1. High-volume of tasks
  2. Multiple people required to execute tasks
  3. Time-sensitive nature
  4. Significant impact on other processes and systems
  5. Need for compliance and audit trails
