FAQ
No. Automation has its limitations and requires a person to deal with subjectivity and nuances to design and monitor it. In fact, businesses get the most value from their automation tools when technology and human insight are combined.
First, you’ll need an expert to assess your current practices within the context of your business and industry needs. Then, they’ll design an automation strategy and select the tools and platforms that make the most sense for your organization and your goals.
There are people factors and technology factors to consider:
- Who’s going to own the implementation?
- Who’s going to work on software or ERP implementation?
- Which roles will be affected by the new system and process?
- What kind of training will they need?
Once you’ve landed the type of automation you need, you’ll want to vet providers, features, costs and security implications.
Even a well-run implementation is a significant undertaking, so you should plan to conduct yours during a slow period.
Start small. Try testing implementation on one part of the business before expanding it, or try a phased approach. Either way, your Paro expert will make a recommendation on how to proceed when they define your strategy.
