The Challenge
XL.net, an IT company based in the United States, was struggling with the management of over 2,000 different processes in its business operations. The company's CEO, Adam Radulovic, realized that the multitude of processes was causing confusion among employees, making it difficult for them to understand what was working and what was not. The time, resources, and efforts spent in creating these processes were largely wasted, as employees were overwhelmed and unable to utilize most of them. The company was in dire need of an effective workflow management system to streamline their processes and improve efficiency. Despite being a system-oriented tech company, XL.net's goal of efficiency was futile due to the lack of a suitable system to actualize it.
About The Customer
XL.net is a US-based IT company dedicated to helping businesses, particularly small and medium-sized ones, succeed by leveraging technology. The company recognizes the impact of technology in the modern business landscape and provides a practical approach to managing the technology needs of businesses from start to finish. With a team of expert IT personnel and years of experience, XL.net works closely with organizations to investigate problems, plan resolution strategies, and maintain them through regular check-ins for optimal performance. The company currently has 30 full-time employees.
The Solution
The solution to XL.net's problem came in the form of SweetProcess, a workflow management system introduced to them by a client. After a trial, the company decided to adopt SweetProcess to streamline their processes. The system allowed them to migrate their processes in an easy-to-manage way, thereby eliminating the chaos and confusion that previously existed. SweetProcess also helped the company maintain quality assurance by ensuring that standard operating procedures were strictly adhered to, resulting in predictable and consistent results. Furthermore, SweetProcess empowered employees by documenting processes and procedures in a centralized system, making them accessible to everyone and closing the knowledge gap. The system's simplicity made it easy for anyone with basic computer skills to operate, further simplifying adaptability and operations. The migration to SweetProcess was done in phases, starting with the leadership team and then training members of their departments.

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
