Office Automation

Automation is has been the promise of computers for many years, and in some ways the promise has been delivered. Software such as Microsoft Office and OpenOffice can provide huge time savings, however if they are not configured for your business, they can also waste a huge amount of time.

Is it time to ask "Why am I not seeing cost savings from technology?"

Use Office Templates

With all the features of a standard office package, it is no-wonder users generally utilise less than 10% of these features. Often users can spend days playing with formats to get something they are happy with. Both Microsoft Office and OpenOffice.org are fully customisable, and proper configuration can not only save hours for non-expert users, but can also help your staff easily follow your company procedures without effort. Single buttons are easily created which automate operations such as:

creating a proposal document from a template, and storing it in the correct directory with an automatically produced file name.
formatting a document to the company standard.
updating a news item on your website.
Imports or exports from other packages can also be automated, which helps to creating a solid business process.

The possibilities are endless; the investment is small, and the time savings huge.

If you have an accounts package, you have already started to automate your business without thinking. Many companies do not use their accounts package for customer documentation, such as quotations or invoices, because of the poor quality of the output. A small investment in setting up the reports and documents correctly can produce professional results straight from the package.

For some businesses a fully automated business solution is viable, enabling a complete automation of your business cycle, giving you the chance to grow your business.

The savings for a one person business are as significant as those for a corporation, and if correctly implemented, growth and change is not impeded.

Virnik solutions are strategic and scalable, and make full use of your current IT staff and suppliers to enable your business to grow.
