Simplified Processes and Project Management

Every organisation, irrespective of size and nature of business, has a whole lot of processes based on which it functions. Back in the day, everything was done manually — from routine ledger entries, to attendance, to work management, to tracking sales and everything that happens at an organisation. With the rapidly changing and growing technologies, a whole lot of work can now be streamlined and done better, thanks to tools available in the market.

At a large enterprise that has multiple departments, layers of hierarchy and different verticals working on different projects or recurring tasks, the use of collaboration tools has helped improve efficiencies and increase productivity. Amongst many advantages of using collaboration tools and softwares, some pertinent ones are to help increase teamwork and collaboration, while ensuring visibility across the work being done, share knowledge and best practices online, overall improving the productivity that translates into money!

Tangish, is a collaboration tool that helps you do just that, and much more. It allows you to subdivide your work into infinite levels and keep track of it at every level. For any work you’re doing, you can create different tasks and give them headers based on what you’ve to action in them. You can further create sub tasks with the respective tasks, based on the deliverables and action items.

At each task and sub task level, Tangish also allows you to assign due dates, mark priorities and add your colleagues/ external partners and vendors as viewers or assignees. Viewers, would typically be a fellow colleague or senior who only needs to ‘know’ what’s happening on the particular task/ sub task, without the need for being actively involved in it. Assignees, are the ones who are assigned the task/ sub task and have an active participation in either working on it, or making suggestions on it. The Owner of any task/ sub task remains the one who creates it. Clearly defining and breaking down the tasks to sub tasks at an infinite level — ensures clear accountability of the same as well as gives visibility to all marked on it.

Small and Medium Enterprises, or even start ups can use Tangish, as there is a whole lot of coordination amongst the teams, either internally or with external vendors. Tangish helps you cut the clutter and noise and helps you focus on the most important tasks first, so that important timelines can be adhered to. Given that there is a lot of multi tasking that happens at smaller organizations, Tangish comes handy to plan work better.

The benefits of organized communication, better coordination, ability to interact with external stakeholders etc. make it important to function better, and lead to improving overall productivity across any organization.

Data Security

Data Security and Privacy has always been — to individuals, and more so to businesses, of any shape, size and nature. Data security concerns go beyond the IT industry overall. Any organization that uses or gathers customer information or data needs to have security and privacy controls. Most businesses today rely on data storage and transactions as their daily operations rely on them. Data, used the way it should be — increases business profitability as well as efficiency. That also has potential security threats, which is why it is an important part of any business.

Studies also claim that 30% of data breaches happen as a result of employee actions, whether accidental or intentional. Other causes of data breach are often misplaced documents, lost or stolen devices, fraud and social engineering.

Tangish buzz, an official chat platform that allows you to communicate as well as share files and documents on the platform — has military grade data security. It is ISO 27001 certified and GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).

Remote working, Wi-Fi, portable devices — all can increase the threat to data security, and are part of modern day work practices these days. Another important aspect to take care of is data encryption — and the key is to encrypt data at all levels. Tangish has it all covered.

What that also means is, once an employee leaves the organisation, you don’t have to stress about them carrying sensitive information or data with them — with all the security checks in place, everything remains within the organization.

All your data remains in-house with Tangish.

Banking:  Pending approvals and long task list?

The banking industry is among those to have been drastically affected by disruptive technologies. With increased competition from Fintech companies, ever-changing business models, rules and regulations changes etc, the industry is seeing a constant shift in the way it operates. Interestingly, in 2017 alone, retail banks in the US spent $20.2 billion on digital transformation, and that’s expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.5% into 2020. According to the global retail banking research director at IDC, some of the largest incumbent banks are spending over 40% of their IT budgets on digital transformation — a trend that banks in India are fast emulating.

Technology is forcing the industry to change the way it functions. However, the internal workforce stays the same — more and more perplexed as ever. Most of the banking institutions today are at a crossroad, walking a tight rope between relying on traditional methods of working (manual processes and systems) and adopting automated processes. Banks today actively need to focus on creating a culture that promotes innovation, and that puts technology as a helping hand to optimize processes and reduce human error. The workforce in banking today is still dealing with long pending approvals and even more extensive tasks lists for processes.

However, investment in the right kind of technology for your workforce can ease this pain significantly. The right tool will also ensure better efficiency and, in turn, quick closure of tasks with fewer errors. taken by assigning tasks to the relevant people, marking due dates and priorities, thereby making the entire process easy and seamless. Tangish also provides military grade data security, thus effectively addressing one of the biggest concerns in the industry — data protection.Banking is one of those industries that are designed to cater to the younger and the older generations simultaneously at all times. This makes it even trickier to understand how to satisfy both these generations.

A Hybrid banking model amalgamates digital experiences into traditional bank branches. The key here is to remember that it is as essential to integrate the same for your workforce and your employees. For a banking institution to be able to deliver a complete hybrid experience to its consumers, it needs to ensure that the employees completely understand the functioning of this model.

A recent study found that 62% of senior leaders in the banking industry believe that the digital talent gap, or the disparity between the supply of qualified people with digital expertise and the demand for those candidates, has been widening in recent years. The right tool and investment in the right technology can easily take away most of the workload from your employees and have them focus on important tasks and not repeat actions, to make banking a more seamless and painless process for all users.

Consulting :Processes, policies and repositories

The consulting industry has seen a visible year-on-year growth in the last few years. This growth rate, however, has differed from market to market — a gap especially visibly in the mature and emerging markets. The global consulting sector, however, is one of the largest in the professional services industries, with a total value of around $250 million. The industry revenue is anticipated to expand at an annualized 3.4% to $259.4 billion over the five years to 2019, including expected growth of 3.2% in 2019.

The growth for the industry is largely attributed to the professional help it brings to individuals or other companies in terms of their required field. However, what is an industry without its people? Interestingly, the consulting industry is responsible for over 2 million jobs when looked at as a whole in just the United States. Despite the huge amount of employment it brings, and the amount of human resources involved, the industry still faces the issue of majorly slow adaptation to technology.
