Case study · Vercel
Vercel cut weekly ops meetings by 62% and consolidated vendor approvals into one system.
The problem
By the start of 2024, Vercel's operations team was running its recurring cadence across four disconnected surfaces: a wiki, two spreadsheets, an approvals inbox, and a project board. Weekly ops meetings were a 6.4-hour scrub to consolidate state before anyone could decide anything, and vendor approvals sat in a thread of DMs that nobody could confidently audit six weeks later.
What changed
OpoSoft became the single system of record for two of the highest-friction recurring workflows at Vercel: weekly ops review and vendor procurement. The team kept Linear as the engineering work-record and continued using Slack for conversation; both feed OpoSoft natively, so the operations view is now assembled from them rather than maintained by hand.
The numbers
- 6.4h → 2.4hweekly ops-meeting time, by the end of Q2 2024
- ~5 days → ~1 daymedian vendor approval cycle, measured over 90 days
- 1system of record for ops review and vendor procurement
“We stopped rebuilding the same status page every Monday. OpoSoft holds the workflow state, Linear holds the engineering state, and we hold the meeting for an hour instead of a day.”
