Weigel explains, “Promapp’s BPM tool will help us to prioritize effective communication at Porchlight so our people can access information in one easy-to-find place within the organization. This will help to guide the team’s decisions and actions as we focus on continuous improvement, and show our team, partners, and customers that we care.” Although Porchlight reviewed several different BPM tools, the decision to use Promapp was an easy one, according to Weigel. “When we looked at Promapp, we immediately recognized that its ease of use and ability to help us communicate better would be an easy sell for our busy executives, all of whom appreciate efficiency. We also really liked the add-on features and visual aspects of Promapp’s software.” Porchlight Developments is one of Promapp’s latest North American clients.
