The Customer:

One consumer packaged goods company, known for its bold food and beverages, turned to Rego Consulting for help with improving strategic visibility.

Founded in the early 20th century, the company needed to modernize how it tracked and managed projects. Project priorities and strategic alignment were difficult to establish. Plus, with expansive global operations — including more than 2,000 employees and partnerships with over 700 farmers worldwide — real-time insight was essential.

Enter Rego Consulting.

The Challenge: Reliable Project Information

Employees lacked a single source of truth for project timeliness, stage gates, workflows, and intake. Instead, they used Excel documents to track projects. It was chaos. Without clear priorities, it was difficult to know which projects to pursue — or how those projects aligned to corporate goals.

The company needed to adapt to a modern workforce where employees wanted more self-service and better access to information to support decision-making. They also required a flexible solution that could integrate with their broader ecosystem, including Azure.

The Solution: Modernization and Automation

With deep experience in similar transformations, Rego delivered a smooth and accelerated rollout. Within five months, Clarity was fully implemented and in use by employees across the organization.

Here’s how the Rego team helped the client succeed:

• Leveraged Clarity’s out-of-the-box capabilities to reduce costs and save time
• Identified project champions and engaged users to increase adoption
• Provided training to ensure full tool usage, including:
  • Classroom instruction
  • Instructional videos
  • Mentorship and ongoing support
• Loaded and tested data for accurate understanding of projects, priorities, and alignment

The Results: a Modern Project Portfolio Management System

This food and beverage company got exactly what it needed — a project portfolio management (PPM) system worthy of its premium brand. Even better, the implementation was fast. Within months, the company met its key objectives.

The Road Ahead: Doing More

The company is thrilled to have gained automation and strategic insight.

Next up? Although employees at this consumer packaging company haven’t announced their plans, it’s easy to imagine they’ll want to expand Clarity usage beyond planning and visibility. More resource and demand management could support their employees across the world. In addition, they may gain efficiency and productivity with more software integrations.

And when they’re ready, Rego will be there to guide the way.
