Client
A US-based B2B service company.
Opportunity
The client was seeking to create a centralized system to track and record employee availability and projects. The centralized system’s desired specifications included the following features:
Availability tracking for project managers and employees.
Future forecasting to identify over/under utilization of resources.
Identify available resources with appropriate skills.

Solution
SG Analytics analyzed the existing processes and legacy software to derive a new software architecture that fulfilled the client's requirements:
The team utilized SharePoint Online to design & implement the new system for internal users.

The solution has made the internal users extremely satisfied with the new system and has helped the organization to achieve more productivity with the same number of employees.
