Challenges Faced by Tecma
Previously, Tecma used outdated software for investor relations, leading to operational difficulties.
Manual, Time-Intensive Data Collection
Tecma's team spent over 50 hours quarterly to request information from their 100+ portfolio companies, often waiting a month for responses. This process diverted focus from their primary role: fostering growth in their portfolio companies.
Disorganized and Inconsistent Data
Received data was often disordered, spread across numerous files and formats, complicating tracking and analysis efforts. This situation resulted in wasted time searching for specific data, where timeliness was crucial.
Managing Expanding Portfolio Data
As Tecma expanded, handling the growing data of portfolio companies and monitoring their own progress became challenging.
