Case Studies:

Here are some examples of how Emergent Partners has helped achieve operational excellence:

Before Emergent: After Emergent:
  • A construction company could not complete an audit because data in system-generated reports was inconsistent
  • Problem was ongoing since system was implemented over a year prior
  • The software vendor had been trying to fix the issue without success
  • The company was facing penalties from lenders because the audit could not be completed
  • Emergent properly diagnosed and fixed the problem in five weeks
  • Emergent continued to assist fixing system configuration and process issues making significant improvements
  • The audit was completed and penalties were avoided
  • Subsequent audits were able to be completed much more quickly saving time and audit fees
  • Financial and management reporting capabilities were greatly improved allowing the company to operate more efficiently overall
  • A manufacturing company had to put the implementation of a software they purchased on hold because of errors during the configuration and omissions made by the software vendor
  • The company was having to use an outdated general ledger and reporting system with numerous workarounds to run the growing business
  • The Emergent Team organized project priorities and put together a concise project plan
  • Using its technical expertise, Emergent worked with the software vendor to correct the system configuration errors
  • Items the system would not be capable of addressing were isolated and effective workarounds were created
  • The company was able to proceed with the implementation project that had stopped for nearly two years
  • Due to an improperly implemented accounting and asset tracking system, an equipment rental company was having difficulty generating financial statements, tracking parts inventory, and maintaining their fleet
  • The software vendor and third-party implementer were unable to deliver adequate solutions
  • Specific system configuration errors were identified and addressed
  • The Emergent Team worked with key employees to develop new processes that integrated with the system improving accuracy and overall functionality
  • The accuracy of inventory management, accounting, and reporting was greatly improved allowing for better management of the company
  • After a recent implementation by a software vendor, a manufacturing company was left with a new system that was not functioning
  • Basic functions such as invoicing, payroll, and bill payments could not be performed
  • Historical data from the previous system was inaccessible
  • Staff had inadequate training and were not able to use the new system
  • The software vendor was not providing any assistance
  • Basic functionality issues were corrected in a matter of days allowing company operations to resume
  • The Emergent Team reviewed data configuration between the old and new systems and created templates to effectively transfer historical data
  • Emergent identified key areas where staff were not trained and worked one-on-one with individuals on how to use the new software
  • The company went from being nearly shut down to functional using the new system
