Automation services for your ERP or CRM system

Unlock new levels of productivity, accuracy, and agility by automating your business processes. Rand Group helps organizations enhance their ERP and CRM systems with intelligent automation strategies that reduce manual effort, streamline operations, and lay the foundation for AI-powered optimization. Whether you’re looking to improve approvals, alerts, or cross-platform workflows, we deliver solutions that drive measurable impact across your business.

Automation

Add value to your software with intelligent automation

ERP and CRM systems are powerful tools for managing finance, operations, sales, and service. When enhanced with automation, these platforms reduce manual work and improve efficiency, accuracy, and responsiveness. Routine tasks, like approvals, notifications, and data syncing, can be automated to free up your team, minimize errors, and accelerate decision-making. Automation can also create workflows between various business applications to route data, synchronize records, and trigger actions to streamline operations and maintain consistency across systems.

Rand Group specializes in automation services for Microsoft Dynamics 365, NetSuite, and Sage platforms. As certified partners, we help clients identify high-impact automation opportunities and implement scalable, low-code solutions that align with their unique workflows. Our automation strategies are tailored to streamline operations, improve accuracy, and enhance system integration, while actively incorporating AI to optimize processes and position your business for future innovation.

Integrated

Increased efficiency and accuracy

Automated workflows execute tasks faster and with fewer mistakes than manual processes. By removing human error from routine data entry or calculations, you get more reliable results. Your team can accomplish more in less time because the software handles repetitive steps and double-checks the details for you.

Responsiveness

Better resource allocation and scalability

With automation taking care of mundane tasks, employees are free to focus on strategic, value-added activities. This better use of talent improves job satisfaction and productivity. Plus, automated processes can scale easily as your business grows.

Machine Learning

AI-driven insights and decision-making

Intelligent automation doesn’t just speed up tasks, it generates data that can be analyzed in real time using embedded AI. From forecasting trends to identifying anomalies, AI-enhanced automation helps your business make smarter decisions faster and uncover new opportunities for optimization.

Custom automation tailored to your processes

Every business is unique, so we build custom automations suited to your specific workflows. Rand Group’s experts work closely with your team to understand your processes and pain points. We then configure or develop automation solutions that align with how you operate. The result is automation that truly supports your business goals and integrates with all your systems.

  • Approval workflows: Simplify approvals for things like sales discounts, purchase orders, or time-off requests. The right managers get instant alerts and can approve or reject in one click, keeping things moving without delays.
  • Notifications and alerts: Ensure nothing falls through the cracks. Trigger automatic notifications when a condition is met – for instance, when an invoice becomes overdue, an important customer email arrives, or inventory levels drop too low.
  • Cross-system updates: Connect your ERP, CRM, and other applications. For example, when a customer updates their info in CRM, an automation can update the ERP records immediately. This keeps data consistent without manual double-entry.
  • Scheduled tasks: Set up routine jobs like daily data syncs or weekly reports to run automatically. Your team spends less time on maintenance and more time on value-adding work.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What types of tasks can I automate in my ERP or CRM system?

Almost any repetitive, rule-based task is a good candidate for automation. Common examples include data entry between systems, approval routing (for sales, expenses, etc.), report generation, sending routine notifications, and syncing records. If you find your team doing the same manual steps over and over, that process can likely be automated.

Do I need coding skills or IT experts to create automations?

Not necessarily. Modern platforms like Microsoft Power Automate and NetSuite SuiteFlow offer low-code, drag-and-drop interfaces to build workflows. This means many automations can be set up without traditional coding. However, for more complex scenarios or cross-system integrations, technical expertise is useful. Rand Group’s team can handle the heavy lifting in those cases, so you get the benefits without the technical hassle.

How soon can we see benefits from automation?

In many cases, the improvements are almost immediate. Once a workflow is automated, you’ll notice tasks being completed faster and with fewer errors right away. Over a few weeks and months, these time savings and error reductions add up. We often start with a high-impact process first, so you get quick wins, and then we expand automation to other areas step by step.

Is my business too small (or too complex) to use automation?

Automation scales to organizations of all sizes. Small businesses can automate simple tasks to free up valuable time, while larger enterprises might automate complex multi-department workflows. What matters is identifying the right tasks to automate. Rand Group works with companies of all sizes, from mid-market firms to large enterprises, and we tailor our approach to fit your complexity and scale.
