Case Study: Vaco achieves a 13,597% ROI and streamlined workflow with Planview LeanKit

Vaco Transforms Its Approach to Workflow Management with Virtual Whiteboards

Vaco, a Nashville-based staffing firm with 29 U.S. offices and more than 1,200 employees, relied on seven physical whiteboards to track work, forcing team members to perform time-consuming double-entry from their CRM. The manual boards were error-prone, only accessible in the office, and undermined productivity and growth by making accurate, up-to-date visibility into job orders difficult.

Vaco implemented Planview LeanKit™, a customizable virtual whiteboard integrated with their CRM, creating a single source of truth accessible from any device. The team saved at least an hour per person per day, gained real-time visibility and mobility, and realized about $286,000 in annual profit — an almost 14,000% ROI in the first year — while improving efficiency, scalability and competitive positioning.
