How Automation Enhances Your Services

Automation as Enabler

Automation is not an isolated service – it's the glue that seamlessly connects your IT services. We show you how intelligent workflows revolutionize your existing processes.

From automatic license inventory checks to compliance monitoring: Automation makes your IT not only faster, but also safer and more cost-effective.

Automation + SAM

Automatic license inventory checks prevent new purchases. Our workflow checks inventory before each order and only triggers procurement when needed. Through re-harvesting of inactive licenses, you save up to 30% of your software costs.

Automation + ITSM

Intelligent ticket routing logic automatically assigns exceptions to the right responsible person – without admin intervention. 3-way match automation detects discrepancies and only creates tickets for critical deviations.

Automation + Procurement

Automated procurement processes from demand notification to invoice verification. Our procurement loop prevents maverick buying and ensures complete transparency in the procurement chain.

Automation + Consulting

Compliance workflows implement NIS2 requirements directly into your ITSM processes – audit-proof and automated. Contract analysis and risk detection run in the background.

ROI & Cost Efficiency

The numbers speak for themselves.

Automation is not a cost center – it's an investment that often pays for itself in under 3 months. Our workflows not only reduce manual work, but also prevent expensive errors and compliance risks.

Example calculation: Process 2,000 invoices per month. Manual: 200+ working hours. Automated: €65 operating costs (n8n Cloud Pro + AI APIs). The savings are obvious.

Cost Efficient

Operating costs of under €70/month for powerful pipelines. AI costs massively reduced through gpt-4o-mini.

Error Reduction

Automated validation prevents human errors. Compliance checks run 24/7 in the background.

Immediate Impact

Workflows are implemented in 2-4 weeks. First results visible immediately after go-live.

Costs depend on volume and complexity. A simple Excel upsert workflow costs around €65/month to operate (n8n Cloud Pro + AI APIs). Implementation ranges from €5,000-15,000 depending on complexity. Payback usually occurs in under 3 months.
No. The workflows run fully automatically in the background. You only need to configure the triggers (e.g., 'New file in OneDrive folder'). We handle maintenance as part of a managed service.
Yes. We use standard APIs (REST, SOAP) for integration. ServiceNow, SAP, USU, Microsoft Graph – all common systems are supported. If necessary, we develop custom connectors.
Simple workflows (e.g., Excel Upsert) are productive in 2-3 weeks. More complex enterprise workflows (e.g., Procurement Loop) require 4-6 weeks including testing and training.
All workflows have integrated error handling mechanisms. On errors, tickets are automatically created or email notifications sent. Critical workflows have fallback mechanisms.
Yes, after handover you receive access to the n8n instance and complete documentation. We also offer training so your team can independently expand the workflows.
