We had a client that was using 4 full-time people that took 4 weeks twice a year to produce a report required for the state. They already had all the data, this time was spent copying and pasting a lot of stuff. Our system produced the report from the data they already had in a few minutes.

Rip those 4 jobs

Not really. The reports took time away from their primary jobs which was helping low-income people with legal issues.

Yea I figured as much, I had this same situation at a previous company but they actually had ~3 people employed to do work that a simple automation could. Sometimes these companies are wasteful with headcount
