Automated computations of (differential) cross sections with next-to-leading order QCD corrections and their matching to parton shower in the Standard Model were achieved in the MadGraph5_aMC@NLO framework. I will emphasise the generalisation for the new physics applications at the LHC. New ingredients absence in SM are introduced. Finally, a few remarks will be given on beyond the precision of NLO QCD (e.g. resummation and NLO EW).
