16 Real-World Business Process Automation Examples That Sparked Success

Business process automation can be used to improve just about any business process, delivering greater efficiency, cutting costs, freeing up time, and allowing you to deliver better customer service. 

But when your scope for choosing where to start in your own business is ‘everything’, that can make getting going harder. So, to help guide your thinking, here are a whole bunch of examples of how businesses have benefited from process automation.

 

1) Approval requests

By creating an Inside Sales team and supported by business process automation, we were able to cut the lead time for quotations by 50%.
