Challenge

Improving productivity

The company needed a partner who could provide expertise in information technology, change management, and industrial processes. They wanted to optimize their decisions and make their work more efficient and predictable.

Solution

Empowering operations

The partnership started back in 2015 when the property management company engaged Zynka to help implement a data-driven strategy and to industrialize its processes. Zynka conducted a needs analysis and mapped the system to identify areas that needed improvement.

Based on the analysis, the team developed a roadmap and implemented a strategy that would be useful throughout the organization and its stakeholders.
