The problem
Processes across the Diocese ran on paper and email. Forms were printed, filled, scanned and re-keyed, and approvals depended on someone remembering to follow up.
What we did
- 1
Started with the processes carrying the most manual handling, not the most visible ones.
- 2
Built Power Apps for capture so data arrives structured instead of scanned.
- 3
Automated routing and notification with Power Automate, so approvals move without chasing.
- 4
Documented each flow and handed over ownership with training.
Where it landed
Manual paper handling replaced by automated workflows and purpose-built apps, with the processes documented so the Diocese can maintain and extend them.
- Paper processes replaced with digital workflows
- Purpose-built apps for the forms people actually complete
- Approvals that route themselves
