OUR CLIENTS

Real problems. Real automation.

From manual processes to measurable results, here's automation in practice.

Invoice Processing Automation

A mid-sized fresh produce distributor was manually processing high volumes of supplier invoices, extracting data, checking discrepancies against reference pricing, and validating charges by hand. It was taking staff several hours a day and left real risk of missed or incorrect approvals. We built a Document & Data AI and Process Automation solution that captures invoices straight from email, extracts the data automatically, and validates it against approved pricing, flagging anything outside tolerance for review. A live dashboard now gives the operations team full visibility over match status and discrepancies as they happen.

End-of-Day Reporting Automation

A mid-sized fresh produce distributor operating across multiple warehouses and logistics partners relied on a fully manual end-of-day reporting process. Every day, staff spent over an hour pulling order data, formatting reports, and sending them out to warehouses and carriers, with real risk of errors and delays in communications that needed to land on time. We built a Process Automation solution on Microsoft Power Platform that pulls upcoming order data directly from the system of record, applies standardised logic, and generates and sends audience-specific reports automatically, with no manual input required.
