Fortune 500 Consumer Product ManufacturerSituation:Multi-billion dollar company needed to enhance product ingredient traceability.

Records have been automated and captured digitally, significantly reducing paperwork and user errors.Solution:Process and Workflow Improvement, Training and Adoption
Fortune 500 Automotive SupplierSituation:The client lacked a governance process and visibility for policies that applied to the entire company. The policy repository had become a holding place for many documents that were not actual policies. Additionally, many of the company-wide policies were over five years old.Impact:InfoWorks oversaw the overhaul of the policy governance process. The team assisted in standardizing the company-wide policies and eliminating documents that were not considered policy. Success was reliant on communication and alignment with stakeholders from five different departments. The team created and implemented a workflow to manage future policies and keep current policies up to date. The team also helped establish a committee to oversee policy governance going forward. The new and improved policy repository increased the number of unique users to 1500 from 30 in the first month and increased the internal click-through rate up 50% from average internal email communication.Solution:Process and Workflow Improvement
