From Scratch to Success: How CMC Global Streamlined Device Leasing
In a world where efficiency and accuracy define success, CMC Global’s latest triumph stands out as a shining example of how technology can streamline complex operations. This is the story behind a project that not only earned the coveted Best Project award, scoring an impressive 96 in Customer Satisfaction Score (CSS), but also redefined the way our client conducts its daily business.?
From Manual Processes to Automated Precision
Our client, a global leader in multifunctional digital copiers, managed business services, and IT solutions, faced a daunting challenge. Every month, they needed to gather meter readings directly from office copiers at customer sites. These readings were then manually entered into spreadsheets to calculate billing, an error-prone process that consumed valuable time and resources.
While they had an in-house billing system, it was plagued by performance issues and bugs, rendering it unreliable and unfit for launch. That’s when CMC Global stepped in. Within just 3.5 months, and with a dedicated team of 9 members, we transformed a cumbersome manual process into a seamless digital experience.
Creating a Comprehensive Billing Solution
The solution we delivered is a robust billing platform that leverages technologies like Azure, C#, and Microsoft SQL. It remotely monitors device usage, automatically generates accurate monthly invoices, and ensures that equipment leasing aligns perfectly with actual usage. Our team didn’t just fix existing issues—we reimagined the entire workflow to drive efficiency and scalability.
“We had no existing documentation,” recalls Ms. Huy?n, the Project Manager. “We began by having in-depth discussions with the client’s billing team and end-users to understand their daily operations. We learned about the printing and leasing industry as we went along, and that deep understanding helped us pinpoint exactly what needed to be improved.”
Effective Communication & Teamwork
At CMC Global, communication is more than a process—it’s a value. Before starting development sprints, the team prepared detailed use cases to discuss with the client. This ensured clear, agreed-upon requirements and reduced future misunderstandings. Within the team itself, members were encouraged to share insights and collaborate closely, fostering a supportive environment that drove both innovation and accountability.
“Good communication and teamwork are at the heart of what we do,” notes Huy?n. “It’s how we ensure that our solutions meet and exceed client expectations.”
Overcoming Unexpected Challenges
No successful project is without its challenges, and this one was no exception. As the team delved deeper, unexpected obstacles and new tasks emerged. With a fixed cost structure and the need to go live on a bi-weekly basis, the pressure was high. The team sometimes worked extra hours, and workloads had to be balanced carefully to ensure timelines were met without compromising quality.
“We learned from every hurdle,” explains Huy?n. “We realized how crucial it was to anticipate potential issues early and maintain open, transparent communication with the client.”
Delivering Tangible Business Value
The impact on the client’s business was immediate and profound. What was once a tedious, error-prone routine on manual Excel became a streamlined, automated process. By collecting meter readings remotely and generating accurate bills automatically, the client saved time, reduced errors, and improved the level of service provided to their customers.
“The results were clear immediately. Our client gave us 96 points of CSS” Huy?n says proudly. “They can rely on a system that not only works but also evolves with their business needs. They were especially appreciative that we trained their team to manage the system themselves, fostering long-term independence and success.”
