Case Study: Sympany achieves more transparent, accountable decision-making with Draft.io

Sympany streamlines PI Planning for 500 employees with Draft.io

Sympany, a Swiss insurance company, faced the challenge of breaking down departmental silos and increasing transparency to remain competitive against new market entrants. To support its adoption of the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), the company sought a solution for effective virtual collaboration during its PI Planning events, especially after the shift to remote work. They turned to the vendor Draft.io to implement a digital solution for their planning boards.

Using Draft.io, Sympany built comprehensive virtual PI Planning Boards, including a Program Board and Risk Roaming matrix, which integrated with Microsoft Teams. This solution from Draft.io enabled seamless remote collaboration, better documentation of decisions, and easier tracking of actions. The results included a more accountable and transparent decision-making process, with Julian Gerstacker, the Agile Transformation Manager, becoming viewed as a strategic asset. Draft.io provided a more innovative way to work, allowing everyone to be creative from home.
