Integration Automation

Make Your Business Systems Work Together

Replace copying, exporting and re-keying with reliable automated data flows across your existing applications.

We are not an n8n agency or a Zapier shop. The platform is chosen to fit the workflow, your stack and what your team can maintain.

  • Fixed scope
  • Measurable ROI
  • Human-in-the-loop
  • Works with your existing stack

Does any of this look familiar?

These are the symptoms we see before the numbers get measured.

  • The same record is created by hand in two systems
  • A CSV export is a scheduled part of someone's week
  • Two systems disagree and nobody knows which is right
  • A spreadsheet sits between two applications as the integration
  • An integration exists but silently stops and nobody notices
  • Adding a system means adding manual work

What this process costs you today

Before anyone talks about technology, it is worth knowing the number you are trying to beat.

A worked example

3 employees × 7 hours/week of repetitive processing = 1,092 hours/year.

Your current process

Assumptions

  • Fully loaded hourly cost of the staff moving data today
  • Rework estimated at 1.5x the original handling time per bad record
  • Automatable share of 65–85% — data movement is among the most fully automatable work
  • Payback modelled against a typical single-process implementation investment

How we work

  1. 1

    Map

    Sit with the people doing the work and document the process as it actually runs — including the workarounds nobody wrote down.

  2. 2

    Measure

    Establish a baseline: volume, handling time, error and rework rate, and what the process costs you today.

  3. 3

    Build

    Redesign the workflow and build it against your real systems and data — not a mockup or a slide.

  4. 4

    Validate

    Test against edge cases, confirm exception handling and approval gates, and measure the result against the baseline.

  5. 5

    Deploy

    Move into production with monitoring, runbooks and training — or recommend against it if the numbers do not hold up.

Before and after

Two systems, one source of truth

Today

  1. Record created in system A
  2. Exported to CSV weekly
  3. Cleaned in a spreadsheet
  4. Imported into system B
  5. Discrepancies found later, reconciled by hand

Automated

  1. Record created once, in the system of record
  2. Synced on change, not on a schedule
  3. Field mapping and validation applied automatically
  4. Conflicts surfaced immediately with both values
  5. Sync health monitored and alerted

What we automate

  • CRM to ERP synchronisation
  • Finance and billing data flows
  • HRIS to downstream systems
  • Webhook and event processing
  • Scheduled data transfers
  • Legacy system connectivity
  • Master data consistency

What you receive

  • Integration design with field mappings and directionality
  • Conflict and duplicate handling rules
  • Working integration with retries and idempotency
  • Monitoring, alerting and a failure triage path
  • Documentation your team can maintain
  • Measured reduction in manual data handling

What the numbers say

Every figure is labelled by where it comes from — measured customer results, industry benchmarks, modelled estimates, or commitments we make to you.

Technology we build on

We are not tied to one platform. The right tool depends on the workflow, your existing stack, and what you can maintain.

How we keep it safe

Human approval gates

You decide which decisions an automation may make alone and which require a person. Thresholds are configured to your policy.

Exception handling

Anything ambiguous, incomplete or out of policy routes to a named owner with the reason attached — it does not fail silently.

Audit trail

Every action is logged: what ran, on what input, what it decided, and who approved it. Built for audit and incident review.

Least-privilege access

Automations connect through credentialed, scoped integrations you grant and can revoke. Your systems stay the system of record.
