Professional Services • Cape Town, South Africa
Eliminating 30 Hours of Weekly Admin
A Cape Town professional services firm was drowning in admin. Their senior consultants were spending more time on paperwork than client work. We automated their back-office operations.
The Challenge
- Senior consultants spending 30+ hours per week on non-billable admin tasks
- Time tracking done in spreadsheets with manual weekly compilation
- Client proposals taking 2-3 days to prepare from templates
- No visibility into project profitability until after completion
- Onboarding new team members took 3+ months due to undocumented processes
The Solution
- Implemented automated time tracking integrated with project management
- Built a proposal generator that creates branded proposals in 15 minutes
- Created real-time project profitability dashboards for partners
- Developed comprehensive SOPs and digital onboarding portal
- Automated monthly client reporting with data pulled from live systems
