Background and Challenge Story
The client aimed to replace its existing Warehouse Management System (WMS) with Salesforce CRM to gain greater flexibility, scalability, and efficiency. Achieving this transformation, however, required overcoming several operational and organizational hurdles. Teams needed to quickly adapt to strict processes while maintaining continuous updates to documentation, ensuring that no detail was missed during the transition.
At the same time, multiple Scrum teams were engaged on the same solution, raising the need for tight coordination and conflict avoidance. Extensive managerial reporting consumed valuable time, while the involvement of many stakeholders increased the risk of misaligned expectations. To succeed, the project demanded a structured approach that balanced speed, accuracy, and collaboration across all parties.
CMC Global Solution
To address stakeholder requirements, the project team conducted a detailed analysis of REQ documents and clarified open points through regular workshops. A hybrid Salesforce approach was implemented, leveraging standard features for scalability and reusability, while introducing custom development to cover specific business needs and ensure full compliance with requirements.
