emc cuts project reporting time by 80% with ClearPoint Strategy

An electric membership cooperative (EMC) providing power to nearly a quarter million homes and businesses faced a cumbersome and inefficient project management process. Different departments used various tools, and the strategic planning team relied on a complex email and spreadsheet system that took over two weeks to complete for monthly reporting. This process lacked visibility and version control, preventing real progress on strategic initiatives. The cooperative turned to ClearPoint Strategy software to modernize its approach.

By implementing ClearPoint Strategy, the cooperative streamlined its entire project management workflow. The solution cut the number of process steps by 50%, which slashed the time required for monthly project reporting by 80%, finalizing updates in just one week instead of two or more. ClearPoint provided greater visibility for leadership, eliminated the need for PDF reports, and fostered better employee buy-in. The vendor's tool also enabled the organization to successfully introduce and track organizational KPIs for the first time.
