Introduction

With over 2,000 different processes in his business operations, Adam Radulovic, CEO of XL.net, soon realized that being efficient in business was not about having too many processes. In the face of what he described as a “massive garage worth of processes,” it was difficult for employees to understand what was working and what was not working. Overwhelmed by it all, they could not even use most of the processes. The time, resources, and efforts spent in creating them were a waste. The need for an effective workflow management system was long overdue. Adam explains how the organization got rid of the clutter and streamlined their processes by using SweetProcess. Before we dive into it, let us have an overview of the organization.

The Moment of Truth

As a system-oriented tech company, XL.net had systems in its organization. In a bid to have a process for every task executed, they created 2,500 processes within their business. The result they expected from these were different from what they got. It was counterproductive. Rather than being efficient, employees were thrown into a state of confusion as they struggled to separate the useful processes from the fluff. Radulovic quickly realized they were in over their heads:

“For probably the last eight or nine years, we’ve been doing a decent job of documenting our processes, procedures which we called work instructions previously and policies. And over the years, we got to a point where we now have close to 2,500 different processes, procedures, and policies. And the management of them became extremely difficult.”

One thing was apparent: their goal of efficiency was futile. They had the motivation to do things right, but they lacked the right system to actualize it. They needed a system that could streamline their processes in the shortest way possible.
