The project connected thousands of manual operations in a large real estate company into a single automated environment within a business process management suite. The volume of document workflows that had to be automated included 830+ clients with 1700+ property units, each with different lease dates and notifications. The additional complexity of the project was preconditioned by the distributed team with 285+ real estate specialists in 25 offices around the globe.
- Project Description
-
SRS Real Estate takes full responsibility for the key notification dates of the real estate leases 20 to 50 years long for all of their partners, who are now counting more than 830 commercial buildings owners. Each retailer attracts tens of tenants to be further notified about any changes happening to their agreement. The Client's real estate brokers have to keep a track on a vast amount of legal documents and notify partners timely about any changes occurring within their lease agreements.
Previously, notification procedures were performed with an Excel-based approach that wasn’t scalable. As the company started to expand, the growth point of switching from manual lease parsing to an automated one became vital. Handling such a volume of services in leases and representing so many properties had to be guaranteed by a sufficient level of sustainability.
Solution:Without changing their business model, SRS built a system within CMW Lab business process management suite to get the highest performance over multiple leases, key dates and notifications, as well as to get even better partners’ experience than they had.
The project was built within 60 days.
For these purposes CMW Lab (IT supplier) designed a fully automated tracking and approval process that served a rapid and easy transition from manual work and workload decrease.
Based on the CMW Lab reporting tool the company also built a metrics system to measure their success: turnaround time, burn rate, employees KPIs.
