Fit the automation to the way your team works
For organisations in Newport 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.

AI & automation in Newport: questions
How do we start an AI automation project in Newport?
Book a free 2-hour automation audit with Ross Owen (worth £290). We review your current workflows on Teams or at your Newport office, then send you a plain-English written report showing which tasks will save the most time and what they would cost to automate.
What are your prices for Newport businesses?
The initial 2-hour audit is free. One-off builds are quoted at a fixed price based on £145 + VAT an hour with no minimum term.
