Process Mapping with Automation

Process mapping with automation is the initial process of documenting your operating procedure into an entire workflow to understand how you get things done.

For us this translates to creating a visual map of what we’re intending to work on in regard to finding opportunities to automate processes.

The Process of Mapping

Although it can take some time, you can utilise platforms such as Draw.io to start mapping out your entire process.

We recommend starting with a written document to create the foundation of the design quickly and then moving forward into creating a visual flowchart with all the intricacies involved.

Essentially you are creating a visual process of your intellectual property.

Identifying Process Improvement Opportunities

Once you’ve finalised your entire process map, you can quickly identify bottlenecks or opportunties where you can consider software automation as an option to replace tasks, jobs or entire systems to improve your processes.

From a birds eye view, you can quickly understand where double or triple handling might occur which can be removed or even identify non destructive shortcuts creating tremendous impact to your operations.

Streamlining Manual Processes

Where software automation cannot be replace, we can maximise on the time spent on manual processes. Our mantra is to design systems that support manual processes to the maximum potential to ensure that all manual work is done quickly and done efficiently.

Looking into ideas like preparing all data before manual work begins, supplementing manual work with automations or even completing all work for manual audits.
