The company was founded in Warsaw, Poland in 2017 and has grown to 500+ employees, 27 native languages, runs offices in Europe, MEA, and North America, and has been acquired by Stagwell (STGW) in 2022.
Before adopting Asana, Assembly Global was running complex operations for multi-country clients and its local offices, faced numerous challenges in managing their extensive workload. With over 300 projects to oversee each month, a team of 600 individuals, and hundreds of retailers they work with, Assembly needed to coordinate their efforts effectively. Using multiple project management tools made things more complex, with projects spread across different teams and platforms. The various communication channels (Teams, email, and peer-to-peer systems) added to the complexity, causing communication gaps and making it hard to track progress on many deliverables.
Assembly realized the need for a simpler approach and looked for a unified solution to improve project management and team collaboration. They aimed to simplify their operations and make work more enjoyable and efficient for their teams. The goals were clear: to unite everyone under a single system for tasks, use one tool for communication, have a central hub for project materials, and facilitate cross-team collaboration.
Assembly conducted a comprehensive evaluation of available project management tools to identify the optimal solution. After careful consideration, Asana was chosen as the preferred tool to meet the organization’s needs. This decision marked the beginning of an impactful and transformative journey for the organization.
Assembly carefully moved projects from different platforms to Asana to make the transition smooth. They created a standardized workflow and used consistent project names to make project management more effortless. They also held thorough training and open-door sessions to answer any questions or concerns, ensuring everyone knew how to use Asana effectively.
These combined efforts and actions not only made it easier for everyone to transition smoothly but also led to better teamwork, increased efficiency, and improved project management across the organization.
