Digitalization of Internal Processes — From Forms to Workflow Engine

Lockdown revealed an unpleasant truth: half of our processes depended on paper, personal handover, or “call Peter.” It was time to change that — properly.

30 Processes, 8 Digital

We mapped our internal processes. The biggest pain points: order approvals (email chain), vacation requests (paper form), onboarding (47-point Excel checklist).

Camunda + Power Automate

Hybrid approach: simple processes in Power Automate, complex ones in Camunda (BPMN 2.0 engine). Camunda models processes in standard notation with full audit trail.

Pilot Project: Onboarding

In Camunda we modeled the entire onboarding process — HR enters an employee, parallel tasks are automatically created for IT, facilities and manager, escalation when SLA is not met. Result: from 5 days to 2 days, nothing gets forgotten.

Cultural Resistance

“Why fill out a form when I can just call?” — because Peter is on vacation and the process stops for three days. Showing concrete benefits helped dissolve the resistance.

Digitalization = Standardization + Automation

Every digitalized process is an investment that pays back daily.
