01
Signal arrives
An order by EDI, an enquiry by email, a form submission, a scanned document, a reading from a machine. Work enters your business in whatever shape the sender chose — rarely the shape your systems want.
02
It gets understood
OCR, ICR and language models turn the unstructured thing into structured fields. This is the step that used to be a person reading one screen and typing into another.
03
A decision is made
Rules check it against your own policy — credit limits, entitlements, thresholds, contractual terms. A model scores what rules cannot express. Anything genuinely ambiguous routes to a person; the rest does not.
04
Something happens
A bot creates the record, posts the entry, raises the work order, sends the response. Where an API exists we use it; where one does not, RPA does the clicking.
05
The system of record updates
SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, Maximo, Nexus360 — whatever you run. One write instead of four re-keyings, with the audit trail attached to the action rather than reconstructed afterwards.
06
It gets measured
Cycle time, exception rate, straight-through rate. Not a dashboard for its own sake — the numbers that tell you whether the automation is still earning its place.
07
And it feeds back
Rejections become new rules. Exceptions become new training data. The loop tightens every week instead of ossifying the day we hand over.
