Start with the two-week business case

Two weeks with the people doing the work. Then a written report with your real numbers, a fixed price for every workflow worth automating, and a case your council can approve.

Sample report

What you get at the end of the two weeks

A report in six sections. This example covers vendor invoice approval: 30 invoices traced from the email arriving to the vendor being paid. The Nation and the people named in it are fictional.

  • Part 1Findings
    The current process mapped step by step, findings rated by risk, and recommendations in priority order.
  • Part 2Change management
    How staff, Council and vendors move to the new process: briefings, a vendor letter, one-page role guides, and 30-day review.
  • Part 3Scope, ownership and training
    What is in and out of scope, who owns the process, how success is measured, and how staff are trained.
  • Part 4Security and data governance
    Data ownership assessed against OCAP®, and security gaps in the current process.
  • Part 5Prototype
    The screens your staff would use, before anything is built.
  • Part 6Implementation proposal
    One fixed price for the build and a first year of running it, with the $2,500 business case fee taken off if you build with us within 90 days.

After you book

Free, 30 minutes. Pick a time that suits you.

  1. 01You walk us through the workflow
    Who handles it, where it stalls, and roughly how much of it there is.
  2. 02We ask how it would be paid for
    Your own budget or a funding application. It changes the timing.
  3. 03We tell you if it’s a fit
    If the two weeks won’t pay off, we’ll say so before you spend anything.
  4. 04You get a date for the business case
    We agree on who we’ll sit with and when the two weeks start.
