Business process automation refers to the use of technology to execute recurring tasks or processes where manual effort can be replaced. It involves integrating applications, restructuring labour resources and using software applications throughout the organisation.
S2 Technology Group helps businesses identify repetitive workflows—such as data entry or approval chains—and implements digital solutions to run them automatically.
Manual processes are often slow, prone to human error and resource-intensive. Automation reduces the time staff spend on administrative tasks, allowing them to focus on higher-value work.
By standardising how tasks are performed, businesses also improve consistency, compliance and operational speed.
As part of the Microsoft 365 suite, Power Automate allows businesses to create automated workflows between their favourite apps and services to synchronise files, get notifications and collect data.
S2 configures these workflows to integrate seamlessly with Teams, SharePoint and Outlook, ensuring your existing technology stack works harder for you.
Common use cases include automating employee onboarding checklists, managing holiday approval requests, processing invoices, or automatically saving email attachments to specific SharePoint folders.
S2 can also set up alerts for specific triggers, such as a cyber security flag or a new client enquiry, ensuring immediate attention where it matters.
Yes, though it is most effective when used with modern cloud platforms. Many automation tools can bridge the gap between older databases and modern interfaces.
S2 assesses your current infrastructure to ensure compatibility and creates bridges that allow data to flow smoothly between systems.
Human error is a natural risk in manual data processing. Automation ensures that data is handled exactly the same way every time, reducing mistakes and ensuring audit trails are maintained automatically.
This is particularly valuable for businesses with strict regulatory or compliance requirements.
For hybrid teams, physical paper trails are inefficient. Automated digital workflows ensure that approvals and document routing happen instantly, regardless of where staff are located.
S2 ensures these digital processes are accessible securely via remote access solutions, keeping your hybrid workforce productive.
Automated workflows must be configured with strict access controls to prevent unauthorised data sharing.
S2 applies the same rigorous security standards to automation as it does to all cloud services, ensuring alignment with Cyber Essentials and internal data policies.
For many businesses using Microsoft 365, the core tools for automation (such as Power Automate) may already be included in their existing licensing. Costs typically relate to the consultancy, design and configuration of complex workflows.
S2 provides clear project pricing to help you maximise the value of licences you already own.
S2 starts with a workflow audit to identify the “low-hanging fruit”—tasks that are high-volume but low-complexity.
From there, they design and build pilot automations to demonstrate value before scaling across the organisation.
