About The Customer
SRC Recruitment LLP is a staffing agency based in Singapore. The company specializes in providing domestic staff, including maids, to its clients. The agency manages personnel files of candidates seeking employment, which contain various documents such as CVs/resumes, letters of recommendations, and work visas. Similarly, the agency also manages folders for potential employers, which include information about their household or persons to be cared for. The company operates from two offices located in central shopping zones, making it easily accessible for customers to meet with them personally.
The Challenge
SRC Recruitment, a staffing agency based in Singapore, was facing several challenges due to its paper-based document management system. The company had to manually sort and store incoming documents in registers at two different locations. This led to high printing costs and difficulties in controlling the archived paper documents. It was challenging for the employees to quickly determine how long documents had been stored or when they were last updated. Moreover, the paper archive was taking up a significant amount of space, which was a major issue considering the high square footage price in Singapore. The company needed a solution that would allow them to completely digitalize their document handling and storage process.
The Solution
SRC Recruitment implemented DocuWare, a document management system, to digitally manage the personnel files of candidates seeking employment. The system allows the company to scan and store documents immediately in each of their locations. If documents are transferred digitally, they are also placed in the electronic file cabinet. The documents are indexed using a variety of terms, making it easy for employees to retrieve the documents they need. The system also ensures that all documents in the file cabinet are up to date and allows the company to easily check when visas are expiring. The implementation of DocuWare has resulted in a significant reduction in the space required for the paper archive and has improved the security of their documents.

SET Creative Ditches Google Vault for Datto Backupify
When Kienholz first started at SET, the staff was using Microsoft Outlook for email with no form of data backup. It became apparent that something needed to change as the staff was often burdened with trying to recover emails from departed employees. Kienholz transitioned the team to Google’s Gmail and implemented Google Vault for backup purposes. While SET employees quickly adjusted to Gmail, which many use for personal email, the same could not be said for Google Vault. “Unlike most Google products, Vault was not user friendly at all. It’s very hard to search for items. We never really figured out how to do a restore either,” explained Kienholz. Due to SET’s work with high-profile brands, projects often go through many rounds of revisions right down to the eleventh hour. This means that every bit of information - especially data living in project managers’ emails - is crucial to delivering clients a polished design at deadline.

Ballistic Echo, a software development house, faced a critical challenge when human error led to the deletion of thousands of lines of unique code. This incident occurred before the code was pushed to source control, resulting in significant loss of time, revenue, and work.

Pipeline Insight Case Study: YARCDATA
YarcData faced challenges in determining the conversion rates of prospects into customers through various marketing efforts and identifying the source of its leads. They wanted to know the percentage of opportunities in the sales pipeline that came from different marketing events, web downloads, or self-sourced sales opportunities. Additionally, they needed the ability to drill down into the data to guide where to allocate more marketing dollars based on the success of previous efforts. Previously, YarcData relied heavily on spreadsheets and Salesforce.com reports, which made it difficult to extract the exact information they needed. This reliance on spreadsheets represented about 70% of their data presentation.
