Customer story / Healthcare

A Planned Parenthood health center.

About

Healthcare nonprofit: The affiliate operates health centers and related facilities. 17 health centers: Facilities service spans the organization’s open health centers. 22 buildings: A five-person staff coordinates work across the property portfolio.

The challenge

Manual SharePoint process

The team had used its in-house SharePoint workflow for more than six years, manually pulling emailed completion notes into the system each day.

Inconclusive completion notes

Incomplete contractor updates made tickets difficult to close.

Unnecessary travel

Staff sometimes arrived after work had already been completed.

Limited site visibility

Health centers lacked one view of their open requests.

The implementation

Facilities workflow

The team moved daily facilities requests into HappyFox.

Security requests

Security joined the shared service system.

Structured completion notes

Contractor work could be recorded against the relevant ticket.

Rules and reporting

The team used Smart Rules, tags, reports, and the mobile app.
