Angle Auto is a young business preparing for growth. Its change team manages technology and non-technology initiatives across the organization. One change manager role has grown into a team covering change, process improvement, continuous improvement, and learning and development.

The pace was fast, with a busy technology agenda and a large share of change outside IT. The team needed a consistent way to manage it all.

The challenge

Before ChangePlan, the team managed change across SharePoint, PowerPoint, Excel and other files. Each tool held a different part of the work. Keeping them current became harder as change grew.

The team needed to handle short timeframes and a growing workload with less admin. Too much time went into joining up plans, activities and reports instead of supporting people through change.

“We had a lot of manual processes … SharePoint, PowerPoint packs, Excel spreadsheets … and so it’s tedious.”

— Tina Leonardi, National Manager, Enterprise Change & Comms

Why ChangePlan

Angle Auto wanted one place to manage change. ChangePlan stood out because it was simple, easy to navigate and suited to the team’s work.

The Change Canvas let the team manage lower-impact changes without building a full plan each time. They could use the same platform for simple changes and complex initiatives.

How the team uses it

Angle Auto now keeps its change information in ChangePlan. Some intake data still starts in SharePoint, but the team sees value in bringing it into one shared system.

Regulatory and compliance deadlines can shift plans at short notice. The team can adjust dates in ChangePlan and keep its core strategy intact, without rebuilding materials each time.

Leaders can also see missing dates, incomplete fields and gaps in plans. They can check what is done, what is missing and where to follow up.

“I don’t want to spend my time doing that. I want to spend my time connecting with the right people in the business, bringing people along for the journey … not creating a macro with colours.”

— Tina Leonardi, National Manager, Enterprise Change & Comms

What changed

The team now has one place to manage change information. It can use a consistent approach while adapting plans to different initiatives.

The team spends less time maintaining files and more time engaging stakeholders, explaining the change and helping people adopt it. That matters as Angle Auto grows: the team needs to focus on outcomes.

Angle Auto is still early in its use of ChangePlan. The team is reducing its reliance on spreadsheets and building a way to manage change as the business grows.
