Case Study: Multinational Manufacturing Company achieves 14-day faster packaging cycles and streamlined design processes with Adobe Workfront

In-House Design Team at Multinational Manufacturing Company Formalizes Processes and Quantifies Value with Workfront

A four-person in-house design team at a multinational manufacturing company supporting more than 20 sales and marketing staff and nine product lines was overwhelmed by nonstop requests coming in via email, IM, phone and Post‑it notes. The team lacked a single intake process, clear priorities, and measurable output, and its review handoffs were inefficient, making it hard to quantify the value of the in‑house group.

The department implemented the cloud-based Workfront work-management solution to formalize intake, visualize workflows, and collaborate with external agencies. As a result they completed 1,036 requests and 957 projects in a year (92% closure), reduced weekly meeting time from 300 to 60 minutes, cut artwork revisions by about a third, halved task‑management time, and accelerated packaging cycles by 14 days (from three weeks to one).
