Problem
Staff struggled to find documents across scattered systems. Writing reports and locating policies consumed time needed for frontline work.
Approach
The organization introduced Microsoft 365 Copilot within its existing Microsoft applications. It began with 150 early adopters and provided practical training. Staff used the assistant for policy review and document drafting.
Results
Takeaway
Reported savings concerned individual tasks; Microsoft did not provide an organization-wide productivity measurement.
