Our aerospace client had difficulties with operational efficiency due to reliance on manual processes and offline communication. These challenges led to delays, errors, and inefficiencies which impaired our ability to deliver projects on schedule and within budget. We resolved these problems by employing cutting-edge technology and top-notch project management techniques.
Problem Statement
Our aerospace Client faced operational challenges that prevented us from achieving our goals. Our traditional processes were too slow, error-prone, and lacking in transparency. It was difficult to manage projects effectively, and communication among team members was fragmented. We needed to find a way to streamline our operations and improve collaboration to succeed in a highly competitive industry.
Analysis
We embarked on a comprehensive analysis of our operations to identify the root causes of our challenges. This included interviews with team members, mapping out our processes, and analyzing our data. We found that the majority of our work was done offline, leading to delays and errors. Our communication channels were also suboptimal, with email and phone being the primary methods of collaboration.
To address these issues, we developed a plan that focused on implementing project management software and adopting best practices in project management. We chose a platform that was highly customizable, user-friendly, and scalable. We worked with our team members to introduce new procedures for project management, including Agile and Scrum methodologies. We also emphasized the importance of regular communication and introduced new tools for online collaboration.
Quantitative and Qualitative Data
Our efforts yielded significant results, both in terms of quantitative metrics and qualitative feedback. Our projects were completed faster and with fewer errors, resulting in increased revenue and higher customer satisfaction scores. We also received positive feedback from our team members, who appreciated the increased transparency and collaboration.
Some of the specific metrics that we tracked include:
– A 25% reduction in project completion time – A 10% increase in revenue – A 15% increase in customer satisfaction scores – A 50% reduction in errors and rework
We also received positive feedback from our team members, who appreciated the increased transparency and collaboration. One team member noted, “It’s so much easier to know what’s going on with each project. I feel like we’re all on the same page and working together to achieve our goals.”
Results
Our aerospace client was able to achieve significant improvements in operational efficiency through our solution. We were able to complete projects faster, with fewer errors and greater transparency. Our improved communication channels facilitated better collaboration, resulting in stronger team relationships and higher levels of satisfaction among customers and team members alike.
Conclusion
Our journey to achieving operational efficiency was not without challenges, but we persevered and identified innovative solutions to our problems. By embracing project management software and best practices, we were able to revolutionize our processes and achieve results that exceeded our expectations. We now have a strong foundation for future growth and success and are confident in our ability to compete in an ever-changing industry.
Over the years, mostly all the private and government organizations gather and measure feedback through digital surveys, so they can make better decisions and drive impact. Government Organizations generally adopt inclusive surveys that are rooted in empathy, respect, and clear goals—from their language to their accessibility.
Our partner, Chandigarh’s department of education is concerned with formulating general plans and policies for education. They make sure that teachers and school leaders are the best they can be to ensure that children everywhere receive a great education. It often requires collecting and analyzing data from students and teachers residing in the 115 government schools and several colleges under their administrative belt. Hence the department of education contacted TEC to digitally transform this lengthy process and streamline the time taken to analyze and draw efficient insights from the data collected.
Challenges
The officials at the department of education were excellent at analyzing feedback and gauging how students are feeling about various initiatives, teaching methodologies and educational subjects delivered at several campuses, and until 2020, they gathered this feedback mainly through in-person workshops, meetings, and focus driven surveys.
Most of the state-led schools after the pandemic adopted digital means to impart education, which provided a useful collaboration and communication avenue for the remote students and teachers. But replicating some of the more engaging pieces of in-person education and brainstorms was difficult. They needed something to boost engagement virtually. To do its best work for students and employers, our client needed a solution to collect their feedback that would help the department of education to understand students attitudes toward complex teaching methodologies topics.
Solution
According to the officials of the department of education, they chose TEC’s solution due to its intuitiveness, quick time to value, and responsive customer support.
Initially, they planned to use digital surveys to serve two core goals: to capture students’ knowledge of, and attitudes toward, teaching methodologies and to continuously measure the impact of digital classroom education. TEC created anonymous and profile-based digital intake surveys with multiple language options and two delivery methods- online and android device based- to obtain trend data using surrounding questions drawn by education department experts. This allowed them to craft and send out digital surveys quickly, tracking student’s satisfaction scores long-term, dynamic location mapping which gave them more time to focus on process improvement.
To make sustainable improvement in set-up processes, TEC enabled aggregating and analyzing student’s responses efficiently. The solution was equipped with shareable analytics and dynamic insight reports to inform the department’s approach towards the desired goal of the digital surveys.
Further to address undesired data leaks and make the sharing of reports easier TEC enabled a greater collaboration within the solution, that allowed selective officials to share project leaders, team members, and executive sponsors to show real-time project digital survey scores, real-time location of students and areas where processes may need improvement.
Retain a competitive edge by truly understanding the voice of your customers. Customer satisfaction digital surveys help you connect at multiple touchpoints to find out exactly what your customers want, need and expect. Get your quote now to get that competitive edge.

Microsoft Clarity solution was integrated with their newly redesigned website to track each website interaction in the forms of heat, clicks, scrolls & heatmaps to get a better understanding of their customer behaviour and flow.
To increase customer engagement further, a virtual pop up store was designed using the appropriate AR and VR augmented tools to give the prospective customers the true experience of shopping in the digital era. Unique 3D touch UX feature was introduced for each product to give the customers the real feel and look of the fabric.
To address the issue of high exit rate at the point of checkout, integration of AI-enhanced Visual recognition and chatbot integration was achieved on the detail pages of the client’s e-commerce store, ensuring that customers will always find the right product. It helped them save time by designating appropriate tags when adding new products to the store. The chatbot solution assisted them to achieve customer-centricity and exponentially increased client retention by 35% and decreased the exit rate by 40%.
Lastly, to ensure safe and transparent transactions, a global payment ecosystem was set up by TEC experts that connects our client’s business and consumers everywhere.
