Excelpoint’s managing director Ian Brown
talks about the digital revolution and how
Excelpoint is helping businesses to take
advantage of its many benefits.
HELPING BUSINESSES TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE DIGITAL REVOLUTION
T
he digital revolution is the current
trend of process automation and
information exchange in businesses,
making it easier to gather and
analyse data, operate with more flexibility,
introduce efficient business processes and
collaborate with customers and suppliers
alike.
Ian Brown, managing director of
Excelpoint, explains: “It is about using
technology to automate repeatable day to
day tasks to ensure compliance with more
efficient business processes, and to realise
cost savings.
“The key objective is to identify
challenging business areas or high value
activities that can be fully or partially
automated with human interactions
supporting planned workflows.
“These workflows are integrated into
the business to create a streamlined
environment.”
Systems are often business specific and
cover end-to-end processes, including CRM,
planning and resourcing, manufacturing,
compliance, health and safety, HR and many
others.
Ian is an advocate of ‘a big bang rarely
works’. “It is best to work with a software
supplier with a proven track record,
enabling you to achieve your ambitions
and aspirations over time, identifying
key challenges that need addressing and
extending your solution one bit at a time until
enterprise-wide automation is achieved,” he
adds.
Excelpoint has developed its software into
a unique no-code system-building platform
that can be configured into scalable solutions
to deliver end-to-end enterprise-wide
systems for customers up to ten times faster
than bespoke development projects.
“We draw on the wealth of in-house
knowledge to configure the Excelpoint
software into scalable solutions,” says Ian.
“We have recently launched a unique
stand alone mobile application. The
application provides the capability to run
entire business processes on a hand held
mobile device.
“It has enabled one of our large corporate
customers to position over 400 mobile
devices across a national operation.
“Construction workers now have access
to the entire business processes, receive
assigned work orders with all associated
information and record against tasks
to enable invoices to be automatically
generated. Such functionality is invaluable for
many organisations.”
Excelpoint is committed to keeping pace
with technological advancements and
supports its customers with innovative new
product launches and responsive customer
service.
It was recently recognised for its
achievements and success in the North
East Business Awards 2020, Small Business
Award category (Durham, Sunderland and
South Tyneside heat).
“We were so proud to be recognised
by the North East Business Awards. As
business process automation takes a central
position within the IT investment landscape,
we are in a strong position and established
as a key player. We have future-proofed,
agile and innovative solutions and have
supported companies across the region
to streamline and automate their business
processes.
“This is fantastic recognition for the
company and our software platform
and importantly for the amazing team at
Excelpoint who have all played an integral
role in achieving success.”
