HelloFresh, a leading global meal-kit company, was facing significant challenges in managing and tracking incidents within the company. The company was using forms and spreadsheets on an ad-hoc basis, which proved to be inadequate with the growing operations and evolving needs. The challenges included error-prone and manual work, inability to identify and track bottlenecks, dependencies on multiple channels for cross-departmental collaboration, lack of traceability in task management, and lack of clean & accurate data for external and internal reporting. The company was in need of a service management solution that could standardize the approach to incident management and centralize information flow, leading to a single source of truth for all incident-related data.
