Smart Automation With a Human Touch

SmartTechNXT is a people-first intelligent automation partner that helps organisations simplify operations through practical, scalable automation solutions.

We work with businesses across industries to identify where operational bottlenecks, fragmented systems, and inefficient processes slow teams down. From there, we design and implement automation that delivers measurable improvements without disrupting the way your teams work.

"Organisations that choose simpler, smarter automation are better equipped to thrive in a highly digitised and rapidly changing world. It’s our mission."
Dr Laureen van Aswegen
CEO, SmartTechNXT

SmartTechNXT has its origins in business process improvement consulting, dating back to 2004. During this time, we recognised that achieving business efficiencies requires more than just focusing on the operational tasks performed by employees; it necessitates engaging their hearts and minds. Without this engagement, securing commitment to the business becomes challenging, as employees tend to lose interest when faced with mundane, repetitive tasks.

This realisation prompted us to explore ways to enhance job satisfaction and engagement without relying on monotonous work. This inquiry laid the groundwork for our initial consideration of business process automation. We observed that this challenge is prevalent across various industries.
As the world advanced technologically, we sought methods to add value and enjoyment to employees’ roles while simultaneously enhancing business efficiency and productivity.

Now, over 20 years on, our work has never been more relevant. So, in partnership with our clients, we will continue our people-first approach that’s proven to be a simpler, smarter way to automate. We will continue to bring smarter technology that is the right blend of AI’s intelligence and RPA’s governance and reliability. And because our client’s growth in people capability is accretive every step of the automation journey, they will continue to achieve faster, more sustainable results.

Our philosophy is simple: Technology should support people, not replace them.

Why Businesses Turn To Automation

As organisations grow, operational complexity increases across systems, teams and workflows. Core systems may be stable. Yet execution often is not.

Common challenges we see across organisations include:

Disconnected workflows across systems and teams

Inconsistent execution across processes

Employee value proposition eroded by repetitive operational processes

Operational risk hidden inside everyday workflows
