Fit the automation to the way your team works
For organisations in Cardiff using several technology suppliers—separate providers for IT support, CRM, accounts, phones and website—the most important first step is defining how data moves between them and who is responsible for each link:
- Supplier & system coordination: We check which systems hold your master records, how APIs or Microsoft 365 connectors authenticate, and who authorises changes.
- Communication continuity: Shared mailboxes, client portals and phone lines keep working normally while automations are proven in the background with a human in the loop.
- Data permissions & UK GDPR: Before enabling Microsoft 365 Copilot or connecting an AI agent, we review SharePoint and folder permissions so sensitive files stay locked down.
