Study Notes
Week 1: Foundations of Filevine and CRM Basics
- Scenario: Departments often struggle with inconsistent documentation, missed deadlines, and unclear workflows. Filevine aims to streamline processes.
- Objective: Learn Filevine basics, identify key process components (triggers, trackers, storage, reporting), and apply Filevine to departmental needs.
-
Topics Covered:
- What is Filevine? Overview as a CRM tool, benefits for process management.
-
Main Process Components:
- Triggers: Events initiating workflows (e.g., client onboarding, task creation).
- Trackers: Monitor progress and completion (e.g., lead status, expense tracking).
- Data Storage: Organize and retrieve documents and data for centralized access and retrieval.
- Reporting: Analyze performance, identify efficiencies, and pinpoint bottlenecks for process improvement.
- Example Scenario: A process walkthrough (e.g., medical record requests) broken down into components.
-
Assignments:
- Navigate the Filevine interface (Projects, Tasks, Reports).
- Identify a department-specific process, break it into components.
- Create a basic Filevine project (e.g., Marketing Campaign Setup, Client Intake, Budget Tracker).
Week 2: Advanced Filevine Utilization and Hands-On Testing
- Objective: Build, test, and refine workflows in Filevine, collaborate on simulated scenarios, learn advanced features (notifications, automations, custom reports).
-
Topics Covered:
- Workflow Building and Testing: Create workflows for departmental needs, add custom fields, triggers, trackers, simulate real-world scenarios, and adjust workflows as needed.
- Advanced Reporting and Metrics: Generate and analyze performance data (e.g., task completion rates, lead conversion rates, expense tracking), improve task delegation and collaboration.
- Filevine Features in Depth: Automations (notifications, task assignments, follow-ups), integrations (document management, financial tools, client communication platforms), custom reports creation.
-
Assignments:
- Build a workflow for a specific departmental process (with emphasis on efficiency and accuracy).
- Test the workflow with teammates, simulating real scenarios and evaluating potential bottlenecks.
- Refine the process based on test results and create a report analyzing workflow efficiency, providing recommendations for improvement.
Week 3: Data Management, Analysis, and Office Matrix Distribution
- Introduction: Data and collaboration are key to improving workflows.
- Objective: Learn to store, manage, and analyze data in Filevine, enhance team efficiency.
-
Topics Covered:
- Data Management in Filevine: Centralized data storage (documents, financials, task logs), best practices for organizing and retrieving data, ensuring data accuracy and completeness.
- Matrix Distribution: How tasks and responsibilities are allocated across departments, resource sharing, cross-functional collaboration, accountability, and performance tracking.
- Advanced Reporting: Generate, analyze, and utilize data reports to analyze workflows, identify inefficiencies, measure and track performance metrics, and provide actionable insights for process improvement.
-
Assignments:
- Create and analyze a process report (campaign success, financial accuracy, document requests), focusing on identifying success and failure factors, and recommending solutions.
- Design a cross-departmental collaboration matrix, showing task allocation and accountability for each member of the team and department.
- Discuss data management and matrix distribution, providing concrete examples on how these concepts can improve team efficiency, and suggest improvements in case of inefficiencies.
Week 4: Value Stream Mapping and Process Optimization
- Introduction: Using value stream mapping to identify and eliminate inefficiencies in workflows.
- Objective: Apply value stream mapping to optimize workflows, combine triggers, trackers, data, and reporting for end-to-end process improvement.
-
Topics Covered:
- Value Stream Mapping: Identify value-adding vs. non-value-adding activities, visualize workflows to highlight inefficiencies, focusing on streamlining processes and improving productivity.
- Process Optimization: Streamline workflows based on mapping results, incorporate automations and integrations to boost productivity, focus on automation and integration for reducing manual work and improving efficiency.
- Comprehensive Process Design: Bringing together triggers, trackers, data management, and reporting into a cohesive system for a more efficient workflow, including error prevention and feedback mechanisms.
-
Assignments:
- Develop a value stream map for a department workflow, focusing on identifying steps contributing to waste and eliminating them to optimize.
- Optimize the workflow by incorporating automation and triggers (e.g., approvals, reminders, automated tasks, notifications, custom reports for tracking), and creating triggers and trackers for workflow refinement.
- Present a process improvement proposal (supported by value stream mapping and Filevine features), with a focus on implementation strategies and quantifiable metrics, and include a timeline/implementation plan.
Key Takeaways After 4 Weeks
- Filevine Proficiency: Confident navigation and use of various Filevine features.
- Process Design Expertise: Ability to tailor workflows to different departments, focusing on efficient task distribution and minimizing bottlenecks.
- Performance Analysis: Utilize data and reports to monitor success and identify inefficiencies, including developing strategies for efficient reporting.
- Collaboration and Optimization: Enhance team efficiency through matrix distribution, value stream mapping (improving flow and efficiency), streamlining process improvement, and automating tasks.
