Project snapshot

Before, build, and operating change

A lightweight view of the problem, the intervention, and what changed after the system shipped.

Before / Problem

  • Training and enrollment follow-up depended on staff updating several disconnected tools by hand
  • Provider directory and membership updates did not track CRM state in real time

Build / Fix

  • Training enrollment and follow-up on autopilot

    Enrollments, reminders, and handoffs moved to automated triggers so timing and downstream updates no longer depended on staff chasing each step.

  • Provider directory and membership in sync with CRM

    Provider status, listing visibility, and membership changes were wired to one layer so the public map and internal records match.

After / Outcome

The Growth Engine runs as a connected program, not a list of one-off tasks. Training and provider workflows need less day-to-day coordination, and leaders see pipeline and performance in the same place.

Why it mattered

At national training scale, manual process drag compounds quickly. Each extra handoff increases response lag, data inconsistency, and missed follow-up windows. This engagement converted high-friction operations into a reliable system layer.

What was broken

  • Training and enrollment follow-up depended on staff updating several disconnected tools by hand
  • Provider directory and membership updates did not track CRM state in real time
  • Attribution and analytics data existed but did not roll up to clear weekly decisions
  • Support work repeated the same questions with no shared templates or routing

What was built

01

Training enrollment and follow-up on autopilot

Enrollments, reminders, and handoffs moved to automated triggers so timing and downstream updates no longer depended on staff chasing each step.

02

Provider directory and membership in sync with CRM

Provider status, listing visibility, and membership changes were wired to one layer so the public map and internal records match.

03

Attribution and reporting you can act on each week

Attribution and performance views were organized around pipeline stages so the team could prioritize by outcomes, not isolated activity metrics.

04

Smarter, repeatable support responses

Recurring support questions were organized into shared patterns and routing so answers stayed consistent without growing manual support load.

Operating impact

The Growth Engine runs as a connected program, not a list of one-off tasks. Training and provider workflows need less day-to-day coordination, and leaders see pipeline and performance in the same place.
