Take on New Challenges

The Challenge

Planning for an annual exercise an organization budgeted the standard amount of time to get this process done, which would take them anywhere from a year to 18 months. Historically, they would use their standard tech stack, including Word, PowerPoint and Excel.

Focused on digital transformation, they leveraged the opportunity to modernize their planning process - with Onebrief.

The Onebrief Solution

Areas of the platform that produced outcomes include:

Single source of truth: In the platform, all users could simultaneously update, validate, and confirm information on Onebrief, which functioned as the central interface for making changes.

Data Visualization: Onebrief’s user-friendly interface includes easily modifiable cards and lists. Users were able to understand, analyze, and communicate more easily than ever before.

Seamless collaboration: Allowed multiple users to update sections in real time, impacting the change on the slides or documents.

Version Control: Being able to see the tracked changes and when the changes were made, the users could tell right away how up-to-date the information is and which inputs are most recent, versus which inputs are outdated or pending updates.

Outcomes

The team was able to be onboarded into Onebrief quickly and took to the platform seamlessly, and were able to complete this in a fraction of the anticipated timeline.

This process normally takes 12 to 18 months, but the staff delivered a complete plan in the expected format in just 6 months with Onebrief - a 75% resource reduction.

Long term, this has revolutionized the way the team works. Collaboration is simple, teams work off of a single source of truth, and change management is frictionless.
