Improving content production efficiency for a major retailer

At this large retailer, content production is one of the main cost drivers of marketing spend. Small improvements can create huge ROI, but knowing where to start is difficult. That is why this company turned to Avaus for advice. The case involved deep analyses of existing business processes, a business case that revealed large cost-saving potential, technical advisory, and clear target state recommendations.

  • Large team spread across different locations
  • Inconsistent processes and ways of working 
  • Lack of alignment and transparency between teams
