AI OPERATIONS GROWTH
Process workflow integration
Basic Automation
STAGE:
2
Process expertise
50-100% enhancement
Rule-based no-code AI automation that transforms repetitive workflows into efficient automated processes. These solutions follow “if-then” logic: If a specific event (trigger) occurs, certain actions are automatically performed.
Perfect for streamlining predictable workflows, like “if a new support ticket arrives, then route it to the right department” or “if inventory drops below a threshold, then reorder automatically.”
Like setting up dominoes - when one falls (trigger), it causes the next to fall (action). Once you set up the pattern, the process runs automatically whenever started.
Rule Based AI Workflow Automation
Detect Task – AI identifies the task based on input.
Apply Rules – Pre-set rules determine how to handle it.
Execute Steps – The AI carries out the task automatically.
Monitor Progress – The system checks if everything runs smoothly.
Improve Workflow – Adjustments are made to optimize performance.

Progression
Advancing to Custom Intelligence
While Stage 2 automation brilliantly handles structured processes, organizations often need solutions that understand their specific business context.
Stage 3: Custom Solutions provides this deeper level of business specific intelligence.
Stage 2 to Stage 3 Progression Indicators:
Signs You’re Ready for Custom Solutions:
Basic automation needs industry-specific knowledge
Generic solutions miss important context
Your processes require unique terminology
Company-specific compliance needs exist
The team frequently adjusts standard solutions
