Case Study: a leading design and OS&E firm achieves faster cross-team collaboration with Fohlio

Achieving the Impossible Here's How a Design and OS&E Firm Built Cross-Team Collaboration Using Fohlio

A leading design and OS&E firm based in Austin, Texas, faced significant delays due to a fragmented workflow between its design and OS&E teams. Using spreadsheets, the teams operated in a strict linear sequence, forcing the OS&E team to wait idly for the design team to finalize all specifications before they could begin purchasing, which resulted in unnecessarily long project timelines. They required a solution from Fohlio to enable real-time collaboration.

Fohlio provided a unified platform that allowed both teams to work simultaneously within separate but visible workspaces, using the same data. This solution, which included specification tools and a web clipper, broke down the linear workflow. As a result, the firm achieved faster project timelines, improved cross-team collaboration, and gained efficiency through features like automated reporting, client viewing for quick approvals, and streamlined budgeting.
