About the project

Small businesses often struggle to compete with larger enterprises due to limited resources and labor-intensive processes. Many of these businesses rely on outdated manual workflows that are prone to errors, time-consuming, and prevent scalability. Key internal departments, including finance, HR, marketing, and software development, lack access to tools that can enhance productivity and reduce operational costs. We can create a working custom internal tool in under 30 days, that can help SMEs automate their internal processes.

Challenges

Creating efficient workflow automation solutions presented several challenges:

Complexity of Internal Processes: Each business had unique processes and workflows that required customized solutions. Ascendro had to deeply understand the operations of each client in order to deliver effective tools.
Resource Constraints: Many small businesses lacked the financial and human resources to implement and maintain automated solutions. Ascendro had to ensure cost-effectiveness while maintaining quality.
Seamless Integration: The solutions needed to be flexible enough to integrate with the existing systems of small businesses and scalable to meet future growth needs.

Solution

We developed a suite of custom internal tools to help small businesses optimize workflows and automate their internal processes. Some key solutions include:

CV Generator: A tool that allows companies to present the skills and expertise of their employees without revealing their identities. This system streamlined the process of building proposals for clients while maintaining confidentiality.
Skill Matrix: Designed to identify the right experts for different projects, this tool helped businesses allocate resources more effectively, reducing delays and ensuring optimal project execution.
PM Autotools: A specialized automation tool developed by us for data aggregation and task processing within their own organization. PM Autotools optimized the company’s internal data management workflows, serving as a key example of efficiency redefined.

These solutions helped small businesses automate routine tasks, cut down operational costs, and reallocate resources to focus on growth and innovation.
