The inefficient, manual, repetitive task is ingrained into the day-to-day operations of most businesses. It manifests itself in a variety of ways.
Common Scenarios:
-
The cutting and pasting of data from one report into a spreadsheet in order to produce "the real" report
-
The upkeep and use of an obsolete system or software “because it contains valuable information”
-
The laborious reconciliation of timesheets, billings, expenses or “non-accounting” data
-
Unsecured paper/document-based messaging or communication workflows
