Role

Operations modernization lead

Team context

Cross-functional enterprise modernization work spanning operations, support, and internal enablement stakeholders.

Responsibility scope

  • Redesigned high-friction operational workflows around self-service and governance patterns.
  • Structured the SharePoint information architecture and support-routing experience.
  • Introduced targeted automation where manual approval and request handling created repeated drag.

Stakeholders

  • Employees navigating onboarding and support requests
  • Operations teams handling recurring approvals and equipment workflows
  • Support and knowledge owners maintaining internal resources

Decision points

  • Centralize onboarding and request routing around one employee-facing hub.
  • Move critical content away from VPN-dependent shared drives to improve access.
  • Target repetitive friction points with automation instead of adding broad tool sprawl.

Problem and constraints

Reduce operational friction caused by redundant paper-heavy workflows and fragmented internal request handling.

Architecture approach

  • SharePoint-led governance and information architecture used as a central operating system.
  • Centralized Concord Hub for onboarding resources, request routing, SOPs, and support links.
  • Targeted internal automation for print workflows, equipment checkout, and request approvals.

Outcomes

  • Improved turnaround time by replacing repetitive manual steps with self-service flows.
  • Increased reliability and remote accessibility by shifting away from VPN-dependent shared drives.
  • Improved support readiness through internal chatbot QA and employee-facing Copilot Studio agents.

Next iteration

Expand measurable operational KPIs to better quantify workflow cycle-time and support-load changes.
