An easier wayfrom A to B.

We find where manual work is costing you time and money, then build only what your workflow needs.

Services

Fix the manual work that costs you most.

We look at repeated entry, inbox sorting, and broken handoffs before we recommend a tool. Then we shape the fix around your process, your systems, and the exceptions your team handles every day.

Document work

Capture, check, and route information without rekeying every field.

Inbox work

Sort incoming messages and send each request to the right person.

System handoffs

Move information between the tools you already use while keeping exceptions visible.

Cost calculator

Put a number on the manual work.

Before anyone recommends a tool, estimate what one process already costs. Change the assumptions to match your operation; the result becomes a starting point for deciding whether the work is worth fixing.

Your assumptions

Start with one process.

People who touch the processCount everyone who enters, checks, routes, or corrects the work.Hours each person spends per weekA rough average is enough. Include rework and status chasing.Fully loaded hourly costUse wages plus benefits, payroll taxes, and overhead if you know them.Working weeks per yearReduce this for holidays, shutdowns, or seasonal work.

Estimated cost

What the manual work adds up to.

Annual manual-work cost$108,000$9,000 per month

Potential annual capacity value$64,800

Potential hours returned1,440hours per year

At these assumptions, the process uses about 2,400 staff hours each year. If 60% can be automated, roughly $64,800 of annual staff capacity could be redirected to other work.

This estimates staff capacity, not guaranteed cash savings. A real business case must also account for software, implementation, support, and the work that should remain with people.

Approach

Your workflow first. Technology has to earn its place.

We don't arrive with a platform to sell or a standard package to force into place. We learn how work actually moves through your business, then recommend only what the problem calls for. If a simpler fix will do the job, we'll say so. Any build we recommend has to earn its cost.

Understand

Follow the work, including the exceptions and manual workarounds.

Recommend

Choose the smallest practical change that solves the real problem.

Prove

Test it with real cases and measure whether it saves time, reduces rework, or improves control.

About

The people who recommend it stand behind the build.

AB Consulting is a veteran-owned team. We work directly with your people to understand the operation and build the solution we recommend. You won't get a canned package or a handoff between the people who define the problem and the people responsible for the result.
