From manual process to automation in 30 days
Large automation projects often get stuck in planning. A bounded 30-day setup around a single process instead delivers something that actually runs.
Quick overview
In 30 days you take a bounded process from mapping to live production – the key is to build narrower, one process at a time with known inputs and outputs, not to build faster.
How to get started:
- Week 1: map the flow, inputs, outputs and exceptions.
- Weeks 2–3: build the automation and connect it to your systems.
- Week 4: test, go live, measure and hand over.
What you contribute: a process owner, system access and test data – plus a clear scope.
The key to fast automation is scope. One process, clearly defined, with known inputs and outputs. Then it's possible to go from mapping to live production in four weeks.
What a typical sprint looks like
Map
The flow, inputs, outputs and exceptions are documented.
Build & connect
The automation is built and connected to your systems.
Test & go live
Live run, measurement and handover.
Examples of flows that fit
The best candidates are processes where data needs to be moved, classified or compiled — not where human judgement is the core.
What it takes to succeed
- A process owner who can explain how the work is done today.
- System access to the tools involved in the flow.
- Test data to build and verify against.
- A clear scope — resist the temptation to solve everything at once.
