Reliable Contractors are a leading provider of highly skilled labour resources for civil engineering projects across the UK, boasting a large number of successful projects in its ever-growing portfolio. However, like most firms in the construction industry, paper forms continue to be a bugbear for staff to complete daily. To begin, the firm looked at improving its HR and finance processes before implementing further across the business. Emma Brown, QA & Compliance Administrator at Reliable Contractors set about finding a solution to coincide with the business' continuous improvement journey.

After establishing the FlowForma Process Automation tool as their preferred tool of choice due to its no code capabilities, Emma and her colleagues set about automating an Employment Application Process. The process involves a member of the public submitting an application for a job vacancy on a public form, via FlowForma's Engage add-on.

Additionally, a Contract of Employment Process has also been digitized, containing an eight-step form between a new employee and the Contract Management team. Other HR processes such as Leave Requests and an Observation Card Process have also been brought online, with more processes outlined for improvement in the future.

"Since implementing the FlowForma Process Automation tool to digitize our business processes, we've seen a vast amount of time saved for our employees to complete these formally paper tasks. To date we have automated approximately ten processes primarily in our HR and Finance departments to begin with. We have also highlighted other potential processes to digitize elsewhere in the organization which we hope to optimize in the future, to coincide with our commitment to continuously improve as a company," commented Emma Brown, QA & Compliance Administrator at Reliable Contractors.

"The Construction sector is an industry which is seeing a digital revolution right now, as organizations are beginning to embrace process automation solutions to cut down on the amount of paper floating about on sites and construction projects. Reliable Contractors are now benefiting from a streamlined solution to replace paper internally in their administrative departments and can look forward to continuing this initiative across the entire business in the future," added Paul Stone, Solution Architect & Product Strategist at FlowForma.
