n8n Workflow Automation for Operations

The Challenge

Logistics operations rely on manual processes, email-based workflows, and spreadsheet tracking for shipment exceptions, carrier communications, and customer notifications. Even a small exception rate means hundreds of daily issues requiring manual handling. This demonstration shows how TICS automates these workflows using n8n and AI.

Our Approach

TICS performs detailed process mapping using Claude agents to identify automation opportunities across operational workflows. We design automation architectures using n8n as the orchestration engine with SAP as the system of record, and build AI-enhanced exception handling that goes beyond simple rule-based automation.

The Solution

An n8n-based automation platform with 35+ interconnected workflows covering the full shipment lifecycle. Automated exception detection monitors SAP events in real-time, triggering intelligent escalation workflows. Customer notifications are sent automatically at key milestones. Invoice reconciliation workflows extract data from documents, match against SAP data, and auto-approve within tolerance.
