Case studies
Seventeen case studies from PPS Consulting India, each on its own page: the problem, the work and the outcome. Among them: nine workstreams run on one plan in a global finance transformation, an operating model of 100+ documents for a solar and storage contractor, a delivery startup taken from one location to five in four months, an Amazon seller's supply chain work done in half the time and a stalled tool rollout taken from under 40% to 85% adoption.
They are grouped by the kind of work: running a Project Management Office (PMO), setting up operational governance, building process systems, and getting tools adopted.
A small team that keeps every initiative on one plan, tracks decisions and risks, and reports to leadership every week.
90 days
from naming owners to the company's own team running the weekly cadence
Relevant if you are taking over a family business and the way it runs still lives with the founding generation.
Running now

Who decides what, the meetings that keep work moving, the numbers leadership reviews, and the rules for approvals and escalation.
100+ artifacts
8 master SOPs, 13 policies, 24 SOPs, 45+ trackers, role playbooks and hiring packs
Relevant if you are growing a project business and every approval still comes to you.
642 hours
leading the office through a finance and accounting transformation with a budget above US$5 million
Relevant if you have an internal team that takes requests from across the business and can't say yes to all of them.
One org chart
for every employee, contractor and outsourced team, with costs, budget against actual, and scenarios
Relevant if your people costs are spread across payroll, contractors and vendors, and nobody can show the total.
Workflows and SOPs people use every day, set up in the tools the business already has or ones we help it choose, with automation and AI once the process is stable.
5x locations, 7x fleet
from one pharmacy and location to two pharmacies and five locations in four months, and from 3 drivers to 20+
Relevant if you are about to open your second, third or fifth location, and the first one still runs on you.
50% less time
on supply chain management, with the same team, after 95 hours of work
Relevant if your procedures exist, but nobody follows them because they are too long.
Runs without the founder
SOPs for the recurring work, one workspace, and a weekly rhythm the operations lead now runs
Relevant if every client question in your business still reaches the founder.
One record
for each patient, from referral to discharge, with every view and the monthly report built from it
Relevant if your client or patient records live in several places and nobody trusts the count.
80% less manual work
lead handling three times faster, with no data entry errors
Relevant if your team copies the same lead or order details between two or three tools.
One view
of client delivery and engineering sprints, with nothing re-keyed between the two tools
Relevant if two teams use two tools, and someone reconciles them by hand every week.
Error-proof payouts
tips and minimum wage checked by a tool that flags duplicates, gaps and inconsistencies before payout
Relevant if you run the same kind of event every week and it still feels improvised.
60% automated
of the manual data work in brand evaluations drawing on 20+ sources
Relevant if your team rebuilds the same analysis from scratch for every client.
Getting a tool the business has already paid for into daily use: workflows that match the work, dashboards people act on, and a plan for the change.
85% adoption
up from under 40%, two years after the agency bought the tool
Relevant if you bought ClickUp, Monday.com, Smartsheet or similar, and most of the work still happens in chat and email.
Live on time
with historical records migrated from scanned files and each role trained
Relevant if you are moving to a new system with a deadline you can't move.
Every plan starts with the PPS Backbone Review: four weeks, at a fixed fee of ₹1,50,000 to ₹3,50,000 plus GST and expenses, depending on the size of the business. One fix is working by its end, and the plan is yours whether or not we build it with you.
Fees cover our time. Travel, stay and meals for in-person work are paid by the client at actual cost, wherever it takes place. International engagements quoted in USD.
What the fee pays for:
What changed in four of these cases:
Every number here comes from the engagement itself: measured before and after, counted at handover, or taken from the contract record. Client names are withheld because much of this work is under a non-disclosure agreement, and we never name a client without asking. The schematics show how the work was set up; they are drawn for this site and are not client documents.
Many of these engagements were contracted through Upwork, where client reviews and the Job Success Score are public. References are available after a first call, with the client's permission.
Who we areThe same method in each. We are not sector consultants: we learn your domain from the people who already have it.
Across Upwork and direct contracts, including the people on our project teams.
Yes, after a first call and with the client's permission. Much of this work is under a non-disclosure agreement, so we ask the client first and introduce you only if they agree.
Because much of this work is under a non-disclosure agreement, and we never name a client without asking. Each case says what kind of business it was, where it was, and what changed.
Possibly: these cases come from eight sectors, listed on this page. The method is what carries across, which is why the cases are grouped by the kind of work rather than by industry. If your kind of business is not here, we will say so on the first call.
They are what these engagements measured. Yours will depend on where your business starts, and finding that out is the job of the first four weeks, the PPS Backbone Review, before you commit to anything else.
It starts with the PPS Backbone Review: four weeks at a fixed fee of ₹1,50,000 to ₹3,50,000 plus GST and expenses, depending on the size of the business. A plan runs three to six months and typically costs from about ₹6 lakh to ₹20 lakh in all, the first four weeks included, plus GST and expenses, with fees that step down as your team takes over. International engagements quoted in USD.
