The Challenge
Multiple SQL Instances without Tracking
- Issue: Riverside encountered challenges in tracking instances where a company could become an SQL multiple times.
- Implication: Lack of visibility into multiple SQL occurrences led to mismanaged data and hampered accurate performance evaluation.
Manual Process with Custom Object for Tracking:
- Issue: Riverside relied on a manual process involving a custom object to track SQLs.
- Implication: The manual process introduced errors and inconsistencies in data, rendering the company object to SQL mapping inaccurate and untrustworthy.
Absence of Pipelines in the "Educate" Stage
- Issue: Riverside lacked structured pipelines in the "educate" stage.
- Implication: Without a defined pipeline, tracking SQL conversions and managing the transition from SQL to other stages became cumbersome and prone to errors.
