Management asked for a chart of pending and completed applications. Behind the request was a disorganized set of Excel files that made the chart impossible to trust.

What I built

  • Built an application management app in Nitro Studio on top of a SharePoint list, so staff manage each application in one place.
  • Imported the existing Excel entries so nothing was lost in the move.
  • Added workflow triggers for routing and status changes.
  • Built a Power BI dashboard with a management-only page: applications processed per analyst, month-over-month and year-over-year.

What changed

  • One digital workflow instead of scattered spreadsheets.
  • Queue and throughput numbers refresh every 1 to 2 hours.
