The company had implemented a system where employees were required to document their business procedures on paper, which were then compiled into binders for reference. Additionally, processes were also documented in Microsoft Word documents saved on a network folder. However, these methods proved to be inefficient as the paper documents would often fall apart and the digital documents were not readily accessible. This resulted in employees constantly searching for documents or asking questions, leading to a decrease in productivity. The General Manager, Austin Maxwell, recognized the need for a more efficient system to streamline their processes. Read More
