Technical Perspectives

Find the workflow worth automating.

Look for repeated handoffs, re-entered information, and approval delays. Understanding the process and its exceptions is the first step toward deciding what software should handle and where a person needs to remain involved.

// Focus

Areas to consider.

  • Document automation
  • Approvals and intake flows
  • Quoting and proposal workflows
  • Repeat admin bottlenecks
// Questions to Ask

Before you commit to a build.

  • Where is information entered more than once?
  • Which exceptions require a person to review the work?
  • How will you measure whether the workflow has improved?
  • Can your current tools support the process, or is a custom integration needed?
