Operations teams are the foundation of every business—they keep workflows structured, requests moving, and people aligned across departments. But in too many organizations, these teams still rely on spreadsheets, email threads, and manual coordination. The result? Delays, duplication, and wasted time. Lark solves this problem with a smarter approach. As one of the famous project management tools, Lark combines messaging, docs, calendars, AI tools, and automation features into an all-in-one platform, giving operations teams a unified system that scales. Most importantly, it empowers you to automate routine processes—without writing a single line of code. Here are nine common operational tasks you can automate using Lark to save time, improve accuracy, and increase transparency across your organization. When a new employee is hired, it’s normal for operations teams to coordinate with HR, IT, and managers. Instead, Lark automates the entire onboarding process. Once HR triggers the onboarding workflow, Lark Base sends actions to IT for device provisioning, assigns tasks to team leads, schedules intro calls, and sends welcome materials—all in sequence, tracked in real-time. No need for back-and-forth emails or manual follow-ups. Requests for internal approvals—such as office supplies, team lunches, or budget approvals—are perfect for automation. With Lark Base and Lark Approval, employees can fill out a regular form, and the request automatically follows a prescheduled approval chain. Approvers are notified, and once approved, the workflow notifies the requester, logs the decision, or kicks off a follow-on task, reducing bottlenecks and ensuring accountability. Manually processing leave requests could lead to miscommunication and scheduling conflicts. By creating a automated workflow in Lark Base, employees can submit time-off requests with ease, saving the time of a face-to-face conversation. Requests go straight to their manager, who can approve or deny them with a single click. If approved, Lark Base takes care of the rest to ensure visibility and documents the request (team shared calendars are automatically updated, and HR is notified to make payroll adjustments). All requests can be visible across teams, and there is no more manual back-and-forth chat or missed messages during a busy time! When requesting reimbursement for expenses, the process is frequently complicated by lost receipts and unclear timeframes for approval. In the case of Lark, employees can simply submit expense claims through a central form, allowing them to add receipts and categorize their expenses. The claim will then flow through an approvals process, first to their manager, second to finance, and lastly be recorded on a master sheet, or as part of an expense tracker. Larkwill also send employees updates about the reimbursement claim status, providing them with a quicker, more transparent, and easier audit experience overall. For teams managing shared resources such as meeting rooms or company equipment, Lark simplifies the booking process. Using Lark Calendar, employees can view the availability of meeting rooms and other shared resources in real time, ensuring no double-bookings or conflicts. The system automatically checks availability, confirms reservations, and updates team calendars, making it easy to coordinate resources and avoid scheduling issues. …
