• Disparate Systems: Various teams managed operations through different tools, leading to data silos and inefficiencies.

• Vendor Coordination: Coordination of Job Work with multiple vendors for semi-finished and finished goods was cumbersome.
• Retail Expansion: Managing retail stores across locations, along with POS systems, required a robust unified platform.
• Volunteer & Donation Management: Their large volunteer base and donation channels lacked proper integration and visibility.
• Event & Educational Program Management: Organizing events and yoga programs needed a structured backend.
• Accounting and Compliance: Ensuring accurate accounting and approval workflows across subsidiaries was complex and error-prone.
