transforming 4 Hours of work into just 4 minutes
The commercial team was spending 4 hours daily manually retrieving data from ERP systems, PDFs, and Excel sheets to send clients a progress update via email. Most of this time was wasted on repetitive tasks: copying data between systems, formatting reports, and generating emails:
- Repetitive manual data entry across multiple team members
- Fragmented data sources requiring copying and consolidation
- Multiple managerial approval steps, slowing down the process
By implementing in-office automation tools (Visual Basic) and redesigning the workflow, we created a semi-automated process with fewer approval steps and a single source of truth, reducing efforts to 4 minutes per day:
- Reducing errors through structured, automated reporting
- Consistent, professional email format, improving client perception, and
- Time savings of 98% (3h56m per day)
Imagine the cost savings this could bring to your business!
94% reduction in Time spent by operator
The process of printing work order drawing packages was plagued by inconsistencies in quality and timing.
With common issue like:
- Missing or incorrect drawings, leading to production errors
- Excessive processing time, causing late deliveries to production
- Delays in the overall production workflow
Using the DMAIC methodology, we conducted a data-driven analysis and qualitative research with internal stakeholders. By redefining the process, incorporating feedback, and implementing in-house developed software & LEAN tools, we achieved:
- 94% reduction in operator time spent on printing
- 100% elimination of defects in work order packages
- Significant improved internal customer and operator satisfaction
Scaling this improvement company-wide would result in annual savings of $500,000.
8% savings on key operational cost
For companies delivering services that rely on fuel, fuel costs are a major operational expense. To reduce costs and support global CO₂ emission targets, we developed a fuel monitoring and optimization solution.
Leading a team of four interns, we built a real-time monitoring platform powered by a live data warehouse that automatically collected data from fleet fuel sensors, which:
- Analyzed fuel consumption patterns and visualized insights in a live dashboard
- Enabled operators to track daily performance at both fleet-wide and detailed levels
- Allowed proactive decision-making to prevent excess fuel consumption
By leveraging IoT data, behavioral insights, process automation, and data visualization, the initiative led to 8% fuel savings within the first year.
What would an 8% reduction in your fuel costs mean for your business?
Improving DEPARTMENTAL QUALITY & cross-team ACCEPTANCE
A department faced ongoing challenges in meeting quality standards and gaining acceptance from other operational teams. These issues led to rising costs, service delays, and friction between departments.
Working alongside the management team, we implemented a multi-layered strategy; balancing short-term impact with long-term sustainability. Each initiative had a clear objective, ensuring immediate improvements while building a foundation for future success.
By introducing new team members, refining job roles, proactively addressing operational challenges, and leveraging technology for data analysis and visualization, we significantly improved cross-departmental collaboration, reduced defects, and strengthened team morale.
What would it mean for your business to achieve seamless collaboration?
