However, as the company grew and employees began working from different locations, a knowledge imbalance emerged.

Solution	Americanflat found its solution in SweetProcess, a system that was recommended to the company's president, Giorgio Piccoli, by a friend. SweetProcess allowed Americanflat to document its business processes in a centralized location, making it easy for employees to access the information they needed to perform their duties. The system offered high-level security, ensuring that all documents were safe and could only be accessed by authorized individuals.
