THE CHALLENGE

Inefficiencies in Valuation Processes Threatened Growth

The EMEA division of a global CRE leader, operating across 100+ countries with over 100,000 employees, faced significant operational challenges in its valuation processes. Manual workflows, inconsistent practices, and limited visibility into progress created inefficiencies that hindered the division’s ability to deliver timely, accurate valuations.

Key challenges included:

Manual Processes: Valuation workflows were time-consuming and prone to errors
Lack of Standardization: Teams across regions followed inconsistent practices, leading to inefficiencies
Limited Monitoring: Workflow progress lacked visibility, making it difficult to track performance

Industry Context: Research from McKinsey highlights that companies with fragmented processes are 40% more likely to experience delays and errors, directly impacting customer satisfaction and profitability.

Without addressing these issues, the client risked losing operational efficiency and its competitive edge in the global CRE market.
