Tiivistelmä
The text explores the practical aspects of implementing Automation of operative work in an order-fulfilment process and the challenges and practical considerations of such a venture,.
Considering the literature available on the concept and study of the organisation itself, it is possible to find insight into the practical concerns of Automation and its limitations. With the help of interviews and information that the case-company stakeholder provided, creating a framework to find the proposals was possible.
Despite the many areas where Automation is possible and makes business sense to pursue, it is not, for lack of structure and champions.
Especially in a country with high labour costs, an increase in productivity is possible by using relatively simple tools and a short time frame. The case company implemented the outcome automation, with which users found issues, but the user base found the solution satisfactory.
