Overview
A growing operations business was running its core workflow across dozens of spreadsheets, shared inboxes, and manual handoffs. As headcount crossed 400, the cracks turned into real cost — lost requests, no visibility, and slow cycle times.
The challenge
Critical processes lived in disconnected tools with no single source of truth. Leadership had no real-time view of throughput, and onboarding new staff meant learning a maze of informal steps.
What we did
- Mapped the end-to-end workflow with operations leads and defined a single data model.
- Built a role-based platform with structured queues, approvals, and audit trails.
- Added real-time dashboards for leadership and SLA tracking across teams.
- Migrated historical data and ran a phased rollout to minimise disruption.
Results
- Cycle time dropped 62% as manual handoffs were eliminated.
- Throughput rose 3.5× without adding headcount.
- Leadership gained live visibility into every stage of the pipeline.
