The Challenge
ParcelPoint, a rapidly growing logistics and supply chain company based in Australia, was facing significant operational challenges. The company's operations department was in a state of disarray, with team members executing tasks without a clear direction, leading to disorganization and chaos. The rapid introduction of new products and processes meant that team members were constantly playing catch-up, leading to inefficiencies and wasted time. Operations Manager Charlotte Wallwork was spending half of her day explaining things and answering the same questions repeatedly. The lack of a structured workflow management system was hindering the company's growth and sustainability.
About The Customer
ParcelPoint is a logistics and supply chain company based in Australia. Founded in 2011, the company has revolutionized delivery services by creating corner store connections among people, thereby bringing communities closer. ParcelPoint operates a network of over 1,400 locations across Australia for the delivery and return of parcels. These locations include convenience stores, service stations, and pharmacies that are open until late at night. By facilitating the movement of parcels from one point to another, ParcelPoint helps to build interpersonal relationships within communities.
The Solution
To address these challenges, Charlotte Wallwork decided to implement SweetProcess, a workflow management system. She signed up for a free trial and found the system to be easy to use and reasonably priced. SweetProcess helped streamline ParcelPoint's operations in several ways. Firstly, it fast-tracked employee onboarding and training, reducing the onboarding period from three to four weeks to just five to ten days. Secondly, it facilitated the documentation and updating of business processes, helping the team manage rapid developments in their department. Lastly, it created a knowledge base for reference, enabling employees to work independently and efficiently. Charlotte was able to train her team members remotely using SweetProcess, which was particularly beneficial as most of her team members were based in the Philippines.
Operational Impact
  • The implementation of SweetProcess had a transformative impact on ParcelPoint's operations. It brought order and efficiency to the operations department, enabling team members to work in a more structured and coordinated manner. The system's ease of use and affordability made it a practical solution for the company's needs. The streamlined onboarding and training process, coupled with the creation of a knowledge base, empowered employees to work independently and confidently. This not only improved their performance but also fostered a sense of pride and satisfaction in their work. The system also facilitated remote working, which was crucial given the geographical dispersion of the team. Overall, SweetProcess helped cultivate a winning culture within ParcelPoint, setting the company on a path of sustainable growth.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Reduced the onboarding period from three to four weeks to just five to ten days, saving time and resources.
  • Enabled remote onboarding and training of team members based in the Philippines.
  • Reduced the time spent on team management from 70% to 40%, freeing up 30% of Charlotte's time for project work.
