Your Team Is Spending Hours on Work That Should Take Minutes
Think about how much time your team spends on manual tasks every week — copying data between systems, chasing approvals via email, generating reports from spreadsheets, manually deploying code changes, configuring infrastructure by hand. These tasks aren't just tedious — they're expensive, error-prone, and they keep your best people from doing higher-value work. Automation doesn't replace your team — it frees them to do what they were actually hired for.
Business Automation + Infrastructure Automation — We Do Both
Most IT firms offer either business process automation or DevOps automation — rarely both. Alpachi covers the full spectrum. Whether you need to automate an invoice approval workflow or build a CI/CD pipeline that deploys infrastructure as code, we have the expertise to deliver.
Business Process Automation
Streamline How Your Business Works
Power Automate, Power Apps, and Power BI give your business superpowers — when they're implemented correctly. We design automations that connect your existing tools, eliminate manual handoffs, and give leadership the real-time visibility they need to make better decisions.
Workflow Automation
We design and build automated workflows that connect your business applications and eliminate manual handoffs. Approval chains, email notifications, document routing, data synchronization between systems, scheduled reports, and more — all running automatically in the background.
Custom Business Apps
Need a custom app for field data collection, inventory tracking, employee onboarding, service requests, or any internal process? We build lightweight, purpose-built apps using Power Apps that connect to your Microsoft 365 data, SharePoint, and other systems — no heavy development required.
Dashboards & Reporting (Power BI)
Turn your business data into visual, interactive dashboards that update in real time. We build Power BI reports that pull from your existing data sources — Excel, SharePoint, SQL databases, CRM systems — so leadership can make decisions based on data, not gut feel.
SharePoint Automation
Combine SharePoint with Power Automate to create intelligent document libraries with automated metadata tagging, approval workflows, retention policies, and notifications. Turn SharePoint from a file dump into a managed business platform.
CI/CD Pipelines (Azure Pipelines & GitHub Actions)
We build continuous integration and continuous deployment pipelines that automate your code builds, testing, and releases. Push code to GitHub or Azure DevOps and watch it flow through automated testing and deploy to your environments — consistently, reliably, and without manual intervention.
Infrastructure as Code
Stop configuring servers and cloud resources by hand. We implement infrastructure as code practices using tools like Terraform, ARM templates, and Bicep — so your environments are version-controlled, repeatable, and deployable in minutes instead of hours.
Azure DevOps Implementation
We set up and configure Azure DevOps for your team — repositories, boards, pipelines, artifacts, and test plans. Whether you're adopting DevOps practices for the first time or optimizing an existing setup, we design workflows that fit your team's process.
GitHub & Source Control
We help teams adopt modern source control practices with GitHub — branching strategies, pull request workflows, code reviews, and automated actions that maintain code quality and accelerate development.
Environment Management & Automation
Automate the provisioning, configuration, and teardown of development, staging, and production environments. Reduce drift between environments and ensure consistency across your deployment pipeline.
Infrastructure & DevOps Automation
Modernize How Your Technology Gets Built and Deployed
Manual deployments, hand-configured servers, and tribal knowledge don't scale. We implement modern DevOps practices — CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, automated testing, and environment management — so your technology stack is reliable, repeatable, and deployable at the push of a button.
What Automation Looks Like in Practice
Employee Onboarding
New hire triggers an automated workflow: IT provisions accounts, HR sends welcome docs, manager gets notified, training is scheduled — all without a single manual email.
Invoice Approval
Invoice arrives → routes to the right approver based on amount → approved or flagged → accounting is notified → logged in the system. Minutes instead of days.
Client Reporting
Monthly client reports generate automatically from your data sources, formatted and delivered to the right people on schedule — no analyst time required.
Automated Deployments
Developer pushes code → automated tests run → build completes → deployment to staging for review → one-click promotion to production. What used to take a day now takes minutes.
Infrastructure Provisioning
New client environment needed? Run the pipeline and a fully configured Azure environment — networking, security groups, monitoring — is provisioned automatically from code templates.
Service Request Management
Employees submit requests through a Power App → request is routed, tracked, and resolved with full audit trail. No more email chains or lost tickets.
The Automation Tools We Use Every Day
Why Businesses Choose Alpachi for Automation
Led by an Automation Architect
Alpachi's automation practice is led by co-founder Eric Criniere, an Automation Solutions Architect with deep expertise in Azure, DevOps, infrastructure automation, and cloud architecture. This isn't a side offering — it's a core discipline with dedicated leadership.
Business-First Approach
We don't start with technology — we start with your workflows and pain points. We map your processes, identify the highest-impact automation opportunities, and build solutions that fit how your team actually works.
Built to Last
We don't build fragile automations that break when something changes. We design robust, documented, maintainable solutions with error handling, logging, and clear documentation so they keep running long after the project is done.
How We Engage
Automation Projects
Most automation engagements start with a workflow or environment assessment where we identify your top automation opportunities, then move into design and build. Projects typically run 2-8 weeks depending on complexity.
Ongoing Automation Support
Already have automations or pipelines in place but they need maintenance, updates, or expansion? We offer ongoing support to keep your automated workflows and deployment pipelines running smoothly as your business evolves.
