Before AI
Key internal HR tasks like sick leave notifications and remote work requests were handled manually via email chains and calendar checks. Internal knowledge was scattered across various systems, making it slow to access specific project details.
What Changed
TUP established an AI and automation department, implementing n8n as an orchestration layer with AI. This automated sick leave evaluations, remote work request approvals, and created an internal chatbot (using OpenWebUI and n8n) for rapid knowledge access.
The Result
Operational speed increased significantly for HR processes, with tasks completed in seconds instead of requiring ongoing administrative attention. The company saved 26 hours of work in 30 days and experienced a cultural shift towards proactive automation.
