Much like the industrious bee works hard to generate honey, Digital Process Automation (DPA) works tirelessly to help companies efficiently lower costs and generate revenue.Bees, while small and charming, are masters of efficiency, operating within streamlined systems to complete complex tasks that keep their hive thriving. Similarly, FlowCentric Processware streamlines and automates complex business processes, reducing manual intervention and enhancing operational efficiency. The simplicity and effectiveness of bees are akin to that of Digital Process Automation.
In addition to improving efficiency, FlowCentric Processware plays a crucial role in implementing Green Business Process Management (Green BPM). Green BPM focuses on sustainability by reducing energy consumption, minimising waste, and optimising resource use. FlowCentric Processware assists organisations in aligning their processes with sustainability principles and ensuring resource efficiency.
Unlike bees, whose processes are largely hardwired into their genetic makeup, people require guidance to complete tasks according to their company's rules. Process automation mitigates the need for much of this training and supervision, essentially “hardwiring” policies and procedures into each step of the process. This allows people to complete their tasks faster and with the confidence that they are adhering to the rules.
That’s not where the similarities between bees and process automation end:
- The Waggle Dance: Honeybees communicate through the 'waggle dance' to share complex information about the location of resources. Rather than watching our colleagues perform interpretive dances, digital automated processes deliver transparent data-driven insights that enable organisations to make informed decisions. This helps companies make strategic improvements and adapt swiftly to make the most of changing business trends.
- Small Brains, Big Ideas: Despite only having roughly 960,000 neurons in their brains, bees can learn, communicate, and even perform basic arithmetic. While FlowCentric Processware has no brain, it adds intelligence to your business in the form of predetermined process flows, business rules, and integration points, which communicate with people and systems, perform complex calculations, and encourage ongoing process improvement.
- Constant Activity: Bees are constantly working to support their hive, much like how process automation works tirelessly to help an organisation achieve its objectives. The software doesn’t tire and focuses on the work it is tasked with. FlowCentric Processware allows companies to automate an unlimited number of custom processes that will work tirelessly to support the company.
- Pollination and Sustainability: Bees are crucial pollinators, essential for the biodiversity that supports human life. Similarly, digital process automation is key to aligning with the principles of Green BPM, which emphasises reduced energy consumption, waste reduction, and resource efficiency.
The Benefits of DPA Within BPM
Alf Pawson, CEO at DnA Digital Technologies, highlighted the benefits of Green BPM at the 2024 FlowCentric Partner Event. He stated, "Business Process Management has been green from day one. The concept is green. Less paper, less power, less utility, less usage of people. And FlowCentric Processware supports this by enabling companies to implement efficient, scalable, and sustainable business processes.”
FlowCentric Processware's process automation capabilities are essential to ensure that your company operates faster, smoother, and is more adaptive to changing business needs. Just as bees are indispensable to our ecosystem, digital process automation is vital for modern businesses seeking to create an ecosystem that promotes efficiency and profitability.
Trust FlowCentric Processware to transform your business processes and reap the benefits of a streamlined, sustainable, and highly efficient operation.
