What are workflow and automation?

How can workflow and automation help me?
Workflow and automation systems have many benefits. They can reduce or eliminate human error. They tirelessly perform tasks, exactly the way you specify, day after day. Dashboards and automated notifications improve communications and make the status of various tasks visible at a glance. Gone are the days of stalled workflows, with papers hiding in a pile on someone’s desk. Workflow and automation increase productivity and can be scaled up easily to meet demand. Automated workflows can also reduce the growing pains brought on by mergers and acquisitions. M&A activities usually result in systems from different vendors that now need to work in harmony. Valuable time is wasted if employees need to perform redundant data entry tasks to keep all the systems up to date. Author and HBR contributor Greg Satell stated, “Humanity is becoming the scarce resource.” Innovating your business models by creating automating workflows frees up your people to do the work computers cannot, such as building relationships with clients. How can data from disparate systems be consolidated? How can applications be migrated to new systems? What is the best process for retiring applications? We have answers to these common organizational questions. The Eureka iTech team has accumulated over 30 years of experience building workflow solutions for organizations in many industries.

Success stories for workflow and automation
Numerous products can be used for workflow and robotic process automation. Eureka iTech staff used Lotus Notes and Domino for many years. One of the great strengths of Notes is its ability to integrate with many different systems. Microsoft Flow shares that strength, and with each update the list of connectors grows.
