The Opportunity for Excellence

When working with clients or prospects, I always relished and appreciated an “Opportunity for Excellence“. What does that mean? It means that when a client or prospect calls with a specific problem that is time sensitive and we, as an organization and team, jump on the problem and work to solve it.

We have had several “Opportunities for Excellence” in the past few months’ with our clientele. On two of them we worked through the Christmas holidays. We have had numerous times where we had several of our colleagues pull “all-nighters” just to respond to a client’s needs. We have met deadlines, pushed ourselves, strived to turn out the best work we could do.

This excellence at my organization can only be exhibited by the members i.e. our employees. When will you have an “opportunity for excellence”? When will you be called upon to deliver success in impossible timeframes and conditions?

Let me end by telling you this. When you go the extra mile for your customer and succeed, you go from being a vendor to being a strategic partner.

Technology adoption in streamlining Opportunity Tracking

Using spreadsheets to track Opportunities is a cumbersome and time consuming task. Most established and growing organizations today are moving away from traditional approaches of opportunity management and are adopting technology to streamline this process.

One of our esteemed customers also had a similar requirement – they wanted to deploy a web-based, interactive and robust platform to manage their booked and to-be booked opportunities across their process groups spread across multiple locations.

Consolidating those details on a day-to-day basis and generating reports in a presentable format was a huge challenge for the Operations and the Finance team.

As part of the Operations team, we were given a chance to provide a proof of concept to replace the manual process with an automated tool. We had limited time and resources to demonstrate a live working model within 2 weeks.

I had to single-handedly coordinate with team leads across business units to gather the business requirements and work with our team to develop a web based solution on Linux platform in less than 2 weeks.

It gives me immense satisfaction to state that I was able to successfully deploy the tool within the expected timeframe.
