Case Study: Androscoggin Bank improves execution and strategic visibility with AchieveIt

Androscoggin Bank boosts project success with AchieveIt and keeps cancellations under 5%

Androscoggin Bank, established in 1870, faced a significant communication challenge in its strategic project management. The bank relied on a manual process using Excel spreadsheets to track project updates, which led to multiple versions circulating and a lack of real-time visibility for leaders. This made it difficult to provide timely support and ensure decision-makers had current information, causing frustration. The bank turned to the vendor AchieveIt for a solution using its platform for strategy execution and project management.

By implementing AchieveIt's easy-to-use platform, the bank enabled real-time monitoring of all projects. Automated reminders kept information current, and a strategic dashboard gave leaders immediate visibility into project status. This allowed leadership to quickly identify and intervene in failing projects. As a result, AchieveIt helped the bank improve the quantity and quality of execution, leading to more successful on-time project completions and a project cancellation rate of less than 5%. The solution was key to supporting the bank's cultural values of ownership and empowerment.
