Where the work started

Independent business advisory firm in Tacoma, Washington: 12 staff; one locally managed operation.

  1. 01

    The starting point

    Update requests for advisory consultations arrived as casual notes: something needs changing, somewhere, somehow. The precise text was rarely included.

  2. 02

    The problem

    With advisory consultations, publishers guessed intent and approvers signed off unseen wording. When the published text surprised someone, there was no record to consult.

The build

After launch

What changed

When it comes to advisory consultations, the person asking, the person approving and the person publishing all look at the same words. Routine changes stop generating meetings.

In the client's words

There is a record of every advisory consultations edit and its approver. The informality we used to call flexible, we now call risky.
