Integration & Automation

Connect systems, remove manual handoffs, and automate repeatable work — securely, reliably and with full visibility.

Most organisations run on a patchwork of applications that were never designed to work together. Teams compensate with spreadsheets, copy-paste and email chains — and every handoff introduces delay, errors and audit risk. System integration and workflow automation replaces those fragile workarounds with connected, observable flows that operations teams can trust.

Archanis is located in the United Kingdom and delivers internationally — combining remote collaboration with on-site engagements where required. We pair technical delivery with business process optimisation where needed, so automation targets the right steps — not just the easiest ones to script.

Integration that’s built for operations

We build integrations that are observable, resilient and secure — so operations teams can trust them.

Common integration patterns

  • API-first system connectivity (ERP, CRM, Finance)
  • Event-driven flows (webhooks, queues)
  • Identity and access (SSO, provisioning)
  • Data synchronisation and reconciliation

Reliability built in

  • Idempotency and safe retries
  • Dead-letter queues and replay tooling
  • Audit trails and traceability
  • Monitoring, alerts and runbooks

You get integrations that can be supported long-term — not brittle one-off scripts.

Automation that improves throughput

We automate the steps that slow teams down and introduce errors — while keeping humans in control where needed.

Automation examples

  • Approvals, notifications and escalations
  • Document generation and routing
  • Operational runbooks and self-service
  • Testing and delivery pipeline automation

What’s included

  • Process mapping and bottleneck analysis
  • Automation design with controls
  • Implementation and integration testing
  • Dashboards, logging and support handover

Automation works best when paired with process optimisation — we can help define the target process before automating. For lighter-weight CRM and workflow setup for SMEs, see Business Operations Support — Automation.

Integration & automation services we deliver

API & platform integration

Connect SaaS, on-premise and custom systems via REST, GraphQL, webhooks and middleware — with authentication, rate limiting and error handling designed in.

Event-driven workflows

Queue-based and webhook-driven flows for real-time synchronisation, notifications and orchestration across distributed systems.

Data sync & reconciliation

Bidirectional data exchange, deduplication and reconciliation reporting so finance and operations teams trust the numbers.

Workflow & process automation

End-to-end automation of approvals, document routing, provisioning and operational runbooks — with audit trails and human-in-the-loop controls.

Technologies & approach

Representative stack — we adapt to your existing environment and integration targets.

Integration platforms

  • Custom API services and integration layers
  • Azure Logic Apps, AWS Step Functions, GCP Workflows
  • Message queues: RabbitMQ, Azure Service Bus, SQS
  • iPaaS and low-code where appropriate

Delivery principles

  • API-first design with versioning and contracts

  • Security: OAuth, mTLS, secrets management
  • Phased rollout with parallel running and rollback plans

Frequently asked questions

What is system integration and workflow automation?

System integration connects separate applications — ERP, CRM, finance, service management and custom systems — so data flows reliably between them. Workflow automation removes manual handoffs, approvals and repetitive tasks by orchestrating those connected systems with controls, audit trails and monitoring built in.

How do you ensure integrations are reliable in production?

We design for operations from day one: idempotent processing, safe retries, dead-letter queues, structured logging, alerting and runbooks. Every integration is tested end-to-end with failure scenarios before go-live, and we provide dashboards so support teams can trace and replay transactions.

Which systems can you integrate?

We integrate cloud SaaS platforms, on-premise applications, custom APIs and legacy systems. Common targets include Salesforce, Microsoft 365, SAP, NetSuite, BMC Remedy and Helix, payment gateways, and bespoke internal applications — via REST, GraphQL, webhooks, message queues or file-based exchange.

Where do you deliver integration and automation services?

We are located in the United Kingdom and deliver internationally via remote collaboration and on-site engagements where required.
