About The Automation Brokers

Manufacturers want to invest in automation, but a combination of capacity, cost and internal capability hamper progress.

That's why we established The Automation Brokers. Independently dedicated to streamlining your adoption of automation. Without the consulting price tag.

We rapidly validate you're automating the right processes, scope it and competitively source the right partners to implement transformative automation.

Who are we?

The Automation Brokers was founded and is led by Frank Phillips.

Growing up surrounded by manufacturing, Frank worked extensively manufacturing across Europe, primarily in operations & site management.

In 2019, Frank moved to New Zealand and applied his extensive operational excellence knowledge to assist manufacturing clients nationwide to work smarter with the right processes and technology.

After becoming Australasia's first Certified SIRI Assessor (CSA), helping manufacturers plan and implement technology to deliver on their goals, he noticed the same questions cropping up;

Who is the right partner to help us build, or implement this solution?

How much will this solution cost?

What are our actual requirements and scope?

The Automation Brokers was built to answer these questions and get results.
