Turning complex approval processes into streamlined digital workflows
The challenge
McGill University’s Advancement Office relied on complex, paper- and email-based processes involving multiple departments, approvals and signatures. These processes were time-consuming, difficult to track and created bottlenecks that could delay requests for days or even weeks.
The solution
Intellera worked closely with McGill to understand and redesign these processes, then implemented automated workflows using WorkflowGen integrated directly with McGill’s CRM. The solution eliminated duplicate data entry, provided visibility into every stage of the approval process and gave staff a simple, user-friendly way to manage their work.
The impact
Weeks became days. Processes that previously took weeks could now be completed in days, while McGill gained greater visibility, faster approvals and the ability to identify and address bottlenecks as they occurred.
“Intellera and WorkflowGen made the process really user-friendly. With the new Planned Gift Request workflow, what used to take weeks now takes days.” — Joanne Morris, Portfolio Manager, McGill University Advancement
