Story
Consumer Staples work at Associated British Foods spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United Kingdom. Contract routing was splitting across regional habits. Legal and business owners asked for a shared way to run agreement management without freezing local judgment.
Smartsheet (WorkApps) is what they standardized on. Smartsheet is a work management platform that uses familiar sheet views to run projects, processes, and portfolios. Associated British Foods uses it as the system of record for contract routing, with legal and business owners as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
