Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is Business Workflow Automation?
    The use of technology to streamline and automate business processes. This can involve the use of software tools to automate routine, time-consuming tasks, freeing up valuable time for more strategic decision-making. Workflow automation can help businesses increase efficiency, reduce errors, and improve overall productivity. It can be applied to various aspects of a business, from administrative duties to customer relationship management.
  2. Why do I need it?

    Businesses need workflow automation to increase efficiency, reduce errors, and improve overall productivity. By automating routine, time-consuming tasks, businesses can free up valuable time for more strategic decision-making. Automation can also help businesses grow and take on more clients without having to continually hire new people. It enables consistent results across all customers, decreases response times, and gives peace of mind because tasks are being completed.

    Completing tasks by hand takes time, but clients expect quick results. With limited resources to handle a plethora of maintenance tasks, there will always be tasks that simply don’t get done. Business Workflow Automation helps to reduce the risk of important tasks falling by the wayside and customer satisfaction plummeting.

  3. How will it help my business?
    Business workflow automation can help your business in many ways. It can help streamline your business processes, increase efficiency, reduce errors, and improve overall productivity. For example, CoPilot is an advanced automation and task management tool that can help optimise email communication by automatically categorising and sorting your emails, ensuring that your inbox remains tidy and clutter-free. It can also direct emails to the right team members or departments, making sure that communication flows efficiently and reaches the intended recipients. Additionally, workflow automation can help with staff induction, staff training, management training, strategic planning, and provide a pathway to improved efficiency and profitability

  4. How much does the basket of 2.5 days cost?
    The initial discovery call is free of charge and allows us to gain an understanding of what it is you want to achieve. Following this the 2.5 day site visit which includes analysis, implementation and training will cost £1,750 ex VAT.   Ongoing support can be arranged should you need it at an additional cost.  This will be tailored to your specific your needs.

Client Testimonials

Tiles and Baths Direct

PowerBI
We have recognised the huge value in the data we hold and use Brash as PowerBI Specialists to connect and make sense of that data. We now have management and staff dashboards with up-to-date analytics, giving real-time insight into all key performance indicators. The PowerBI reports designed by Brash give us new business insights that help drive the business forward.

Abbots Care

Power Automate
Our rostering system was time consuming, inefficient and needed a lot of manual input. Brash introduced us to Power Automate, and once Richard and Luke had set up the various complex workflows to automate this task, we were able to complete the entire process in just a few hours, saving us about 5 workings days. Our care workers find it very easy to receive everything in one email and ahead of the usual schedule, as it gives them more time to check their pay.

The Marble and Granite Centre LTD

Business Processes
We have been working with Brash for over 18 years and they have become a part of our corporate DNA. Richard’s role as IT Director and trusted advisor, not only adds real value to our business processes, but also to our bottom line.
