05. Process
Softomate maps current workflows, connects systems and launches governed automation in short delivery phases. Operations leads, IT contacts, finance managers and compliance owners stay involved from discovery through optimisation, so every deployment matches workflow, data and reporting requirements.
Current workflows, system landscape and automation priorities are mapped in discovery workshops with operations managers, finance leads and IT contacts. Discovery produces a process audit, integration inventory for Salesforce, SAP or Dynamics 365, and a prioritised automation candidate list before scope approval.
Automation scope, KPI targets and UK GDPR compliance requirements are agreed with stakeholders, data owners and IT leads during planning. Planning produces a delivery roadmap, platform connector list, HMRC MTD obligations map and acceptance criteria before development starts.
Workflow logic, API endpoint mappings, conditional branching rules and exception-handling paths are designed with operations managers and system owners. Design produces approved workflow diagrams, field mapping documents and compliance control specifications before build work starts.
Azure Logic Apps workflows, Power Automate flows and REST API integrations are built in short sprints with client IT contacts and platform owners. Build work produces a staging automation environment, connected endpoints and webhook event logging across Salesforce, SAP, Xero or bespoke platforms.
Live deployment, performance monitoring and workflow tuning happen after user acceptance sign-off with operations leads, IT contacts and compliance reviewers. Launch work produces a production workflow, dashboard reporting, training notes and an optimisation backlog for volume, error rate and approval turnaround targets.

Business process automation uses rules, triggers and workflow logic to replace manual steps in defined processes. AI process automation adds ML models to handle unstructured inputs such as documents, emails and images that rule-based systems cannot classify reliably. Softomate often combines both: Azure Logic Apps or Power Automate orchestrate the workflow, while Python ML models handle document classification, anomaly detection or NLP triage at specific steps. Explore our <a href="/ai-process-automation/">AI process automation services</a> for ML-powered workflows. A discovery session determines which combination of rule-based and ML automation delivers the best outcome for your specific process.
