Atled Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Yasuhiro Okamoto), a leading provider of workflow systems, has published a case study of Aeon Pet Co., Ltd. (Location: Ichikawa City, Chiba; Representative Director: Ichiro Yonezu), which uses the cloud-based workflow 'X-point Cloud.'
### Background of X-point Cloud Introduction
Aeon Pet, which operates approximately 200 stores nationwide selling pet products and services, previously used two separate workflow systems for approvals and departmental applications. This led to inefficiencies and governance issues, such as:
- Confusion between the two systems leading to frequent rework of applications.
- Unknown design intentions of the old systems, making it difficult to judge if modifications were possible even when bugs occurred.
- Governance concerns, including approvals exceeding authority and self-approvals by applicants.
To resolve these issues and build a unified platform for the entire company, Aeon Pet introduced 'X-point Cloud.'
### Reasons for Selecting X-point Cloud
When renewing the workflow platform, Aeon Pet compared several products with a focus on resolving existing issues and building an environment for stable company-wide operation. The decision was based on:
- Comprehensive basic workflow features.
- Ability for stable operation while preventing future 'black boxing' of the system.
- Evaluation of the proposal, which included operational design.
### Effects of Introduction and Utilization
Currently, Aeon Pet centralizes all company-wide application and approval tasks through X-point Cloud. They have successfully consolidated approximately 280 types of forms into 130, achieving standardization of business flows. Furthermore, the system ensures correct approval routes based on authority regulations, significantly reducing rework and approval delays. This has led to faster decision-making from management to the front lines. Standard features such as an intuitive UI, direct remanding, and reminder emails have also facilitated smoother operations.
