The Challenge
Slow finance processes
A-SAFE’s operational scale has surged tenfold in recent years, driven by a forward-thinking approach to technology in manufacturing.
While the manufacturing process consistently upheld peak performance, the back-end business operations faced challenges. Manual processes, numerous spreadsheets from various sources, and layered data were impeding efficiency, particularly in the Finance department.
The Solution
Leveraging digital workers for a new process
A-SAFE’s digital transformation team collaborated with Atomatik to embark on a transformative journey. Focusing on the monthly finance reporting process, the teams worked closely to understand the existing workflow and optimize it for a seamless digital transition.
Our team deployed two digital workers and began a rigorous testing phase. The process included the collection and aggregation of financial data coming from multiple branches, rules-based processing and further reporting of results.
The entire reporting process was fully automated in just 20 workdays, leveraging Atomatik’s no-code capabilities for a swift learning curve.
The Results
Achieving error-free reporting 8 times faster
The automation of monthly finance reporting marked the initial success in A-SAFE’s digital transformation. What once required two full workdays is now a streamlined six-hour automated process, eliminating errors and conducted by robots outside regular working hours.
This newfound efficiency has liberated substantial time for A-SAFE’s finance experts, enabling them to dedicate efforts to more complex tasks in line with the company’s continued growth.
Atomatik’s integration has expanded into other key areas, autonomously automating various processes and workflows, replicating the cutting-edge performance experienced on the manufacturing floor into the company’s offices.
