My BPA Process
Let me guide you through the automation of your business processes using my proven BPA process.
1. Process Analysis
First things first. I’ll provide you with a structured form where you are invited to write down information about your business processes and your biggest pain points. This is the basis for our collaboration.
2. App Introductions
I’ll provide you with suggestions about which apps to introduce for automating tasks and eliminating your tech struggles. Also, I’ll provide you with tutorial handouts, so you use your applications efficiently right away.
3. App Replacements
I’ll give you a comprehensive overview about the advantages of the new apps compared to the old ones. In addition I’ll also take care of migrating your relevant data from the old to the new applications.
4. Hosting Services
For the new applications I’ll provide you with a secure and privacy-focused hosting provided by my trusted hosting company. So, you don’t have to worry about running your applications.
5. Make Your Apps Talk
This is the most exciting part to me as this is truly about automation. I’ll teach your apps how to talk to each other, so you don’t need to be the intermediate translator anymore.
6. Self-enabling
Lastly, I hand over your fully integrated app landscape providing you with tutorials and handouts, and on request an intuitive app landscape dashboard to easily ramp on.
Case Studies
Do you need something more tangible about how process automation can be applied? Then I invite you to have a look at these real-world case studies.
BPA for Payment Monitoring
The struggle
The client sending out multiple invoices each day complained about the time-consuming monitoring of invoice payments as well as creating reminders.
The replacement
The proprietary non-integrated accounting app was replaced with an open source and fully integrated accounting app.
The automation
We made the accounting app and the bank account talk to each other.
Only a single manual task
Instead of having to monitor payments manually the business owner only needs to create the invoice and the accounting app takes care of the rest.
Elimination of manual emails
There is no need anymore to send emails about invoices and payment reminders to clients manually as the accounting app provides automatic built-in email sending.
Usage of data secure apps
Instead of using two data spying apps the client now uses a fully integrated accounting app which is self-hosted, open source and data secure.
BPA for Client and Project Syncing across multiple apps
The struggle
The client operating as service provider complained about the duplicated work of creating new clients and projects across multiple apps.
The replacement
All of the three proprietary apps were replaced with open source and fully integrated self-hosted apps.
The automation
We made the Project management app talk to the timetracking and accounting app.
Only two manual tasks
Instead of having to create clients and projects manually for every app the business owner only needs to create them once and they’ll be synced across multiple apps.
No repetitive tasks anymore
There are no repetitive tasks required by the business owner or the employees.
Usage of data secure apps
Instead of using three data spying apps the client now uses fully integrated accounting apps which are self-hosted, open source and data secure.
BPA for password syncing between multiple users
The struggle
The client shared passwords with his employees via mail. When someone changed a password and forgot about it this led to chaos and confusion.
The introduction
An open source and self-hosted password manager app was introduced, consisting of local instances for each user and one commonly shared instance accessible online.
The automation
We made the shared online password database talk to the local user password databases.
Keeping passwords in sync
Instead of having to manually send newly created or updates passwords around to everyone concerned the password manager app takes care of conflict-free syncing.
Secure passwords
With the password manager’s auto-generation feature the business owner and employees could easily generate save passwords instead of using the same password over and over.
Secure storage
Instead of using manually maintained and easily accessible .txt files the business owner and his employees now each use one encrypted master-password.
