RPA Consultancy UK: Automate Repetitive Workflows

RPA for UK organisations. Microsoft Power Automate and Python bots take over rule-based data entry, reporting and reconciliation, around the systems you already use.

What is robotic process automation (RPA)?

Robotic process automation (RPA) uses software bots to repeat rule-based tasks that people do on screen, such as copying data between systems. It suits high-volume, stable processes with few exceptions, and it can work with older systems that have no API. TechLinkAI builds RPA with Power Automate and Python.

Who it suits

UK finance, operations and reporting teams with repetitive work in Excel, ERP or accounting systems, including legacy systems without APIs.

What is included

Process mapping and automation suitability, bot design with exception handling, attended or unattended bots, user acceptance testing, monitoring dashboards and maintenance.

Typical timeline

A first bot typically goes live in 2 to 4 weeks. Larger programmes follow the standard process of up to 8 weeks.

Data and security

Bots run in your company network. Credentials are managed with Azure Key Vault, and bot activity is logged for audit.

Current State

Key Challenges in Operational Processes

Excel Copy-Paste Cycle

Employees spend a large part of the day copying and pasting between Excel and different systems, causing both time and motivation loss.

Manual Data Entry Errors

Manual data transfer between systems inevitably causes errors; finding and correcting them creates additional workload.

Lengthy Reporting and Reconciliation

Financial reporting and account reconciliation can run until midnight, increasing fatigue and error risk.

No Time for Value-Creating Work

A significant portion of qualified talent is consumed by repetitive tasks, leaving little time for analysis, strategy, and customer relationships.

No Integration in Legacy Systems

Legacy ERP or accounting systems without APIs cannot integrate with modern automation tools; processes remain fully manual.

What automation has achieved elsewhere

87%
Less time to process each NHS referral

Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust: 40 minutes to under five. Reported by NHS SBS, which built it. Not a TechLink result. Read the source

Consistent
Error Rate Reduction

Bots follow the same rules every time, which reduces manual entry errors and the downstream cost of correcting them.

24/7
Continuous Operation

Unattended bots run outside working hours; overnight reporting is ready by morning.

2-4 Weeks
First Bot in Production

With our rapid delivery methodology, your first RPA bot goes live within 2 to 4 weeks.

Self-funding
Designed to Pay for Itself

Payback depends on your process volumes and scale. We automate the highest-return processes first, so savings start building from the first bot.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

It works with web apps, desktop software, SAP, Oracle, Excel, accounting software, and any application with a user interface. When APIs are unavailable, screen-reading automation is used.

Yes. We have ready integration templates for common ERP and finance systems including SAP, Oracle ERP, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Sage and Xero. We perform compatibility analysis for custom systems during discovery.

Under monthly maintenance, the TechLink team monitors bot health and performs updates. We also provide training if you want to assign an internal bot owner.

Bot updates for process or system changes are included in maintenance. Small changes are applied in 1-3 business days; larger changes are handled as mini projects.

Bots run in your company network and do not send data externally. Azure Key Vault is used for credential management. All bot activities are logged and auditable, with UK GDPR and ISO 27001 aligned configuration.

Yes. TechLinkAI (techlinkai.uk) delivers RPA consultancy remotely to UK organisations, in British English and UK business hours. Bots run in your network. Email contact@techlinkai.uk or book a free discovery call.

TechLinkAI does not publish a fixed price list. Cost depends on the number of processes, how many exceptions they have, the systems involved and any monthly maintenance. Scope and cost are agreed after a free 30-minute discovery call, which can include a first look at potential savings.

Use RPA for fixed, rule-based steps that run the same way every time. Use an AI agent when the work needs judgement or varies from case to case. Many setups combine the two, with the agent making decisions and RPA carrying out the repetitive steps.
