Robotics programme

The team have a list of processes in the pipeline for delivery over the coming weeks and months including: 

• Trade waste annual billing – this will involve collating business waste data and sending out contracts and invoices annually automatically. This will remove the need to manually key information into letter and invoice templates saving over 200 hours of process time currently spent completing this activity. 
• Producing data dashboards for teams across the council that are up to date and relevant. 
• Old planning documents archiving.
• Loading planning pre application/ building control applications into the planning system.
• High hedges – customers complete an online form that will then be automated to import directly into the Uniform system. 
• More planning type submissions that will be automatically imported into Uniform. 
• Automating parts of the carbon dashboard that will improve the efficiency of data collation. 

We are keen to share our learning so far and to inspire other council teams to consider implementing robotics.
