Global Consulting

“Global Automation Consulting”

“Analysis and capture of repetitive manual tasks”

“Our Global Consulting is the core pillar of AI4Logistics and the starting point for any intelligent automation strategy inside a logistics or transportation company.”

“In this phase, we work directly with operational teams to identify, document, and quantify all repetitive manual tasks—both inside and outside the TMS. This methodology lets us understand precisely where time is spent, which processes consume the most resources, and which activities add the least business value.”

Consulting phase

“What do we do in this phase?”

Meetings with operational departments

We talk with leaders from each area and, when needed, also with the operational staff who execute tasks daily. The goal is to get a real view of processes and understand how information flows.

Identification of repetitive tasks

We record all manual tasks that are performed repeatedly, such as processes outside the TMS, data entry, validations, document reading, email-based processes, Excel spreadsheets, etc.

Identifying and reviewing repetitive manual tasks

Detailed documentation

For each task we document description, roles involved, frequency, time spent, associated cost, dependencies, and level of automation potential.

Time and cost quantification

Based on the collected data, we calculate total hours spent, cost per department, operational impact, and the annual cost of inefficiency.

Automation potential assessment

We classify each task by the possible automation level: full, partial (Human in the Loop), conditional, or not automatable.

Automation potential for operational tasks

Prioritization and roadmap

We create a prioritized roadmap with impact, effort, expected ROI, timeline, and dependencies. This roadmap guides the full automation strategy.
