Company overview

West Monroe is a business and technology consulting firm with 2,000+ employees across nine U.S. offices, plus resources in Costa Rica and London.

 

Challenge

Billable teams can’t afford downtime—every delay in IT or HR support directly impacts client delivery. With 80% of staff working onsite at client engagements, they needed to minimize downtime by resolving issues faster, reduce support costs without degrading service quality, and deliver innovative support experiences to a tech-savvy workforce.

Result

West Monroe resolved 8,000 tickets and accelerated another 4,000 in the first year, cutting Managed Service Provider (MSP) costs by 40% and software implementation times from 3–4 days to under 30 minutes—while improving employee satisfaction too.

 

 

 

Problem: Downtime was eroding productivity and satisfaction

Lost hours in the field reduced billable time and delayed project delivery. West Monroe faced fragmented support across portals, email, and phone, along with slow, manual processes for routine IT and HR tasks. Limited visibility into recurring bottlenecks made it difficult to address root causes, and scaling support required adding headcount. The firm needed a system that could deliver instant, in-flow support, streamline approvals, and free teams to focus on higher-value work.

West Monroe needed a system that could deliver instant, in-flow support, streamline approvals, and free IT to focus on higher-value work.

 

Solution: Scaling smarter with AI-powered support

To overhaul its support model, West Monroe deployed Moveworks—an agentic AI platform that meets employees in Microsoft Teams and Slack and is able to resolve many requests in seconds.

Key aspects of the solution:

Seamless integration

Connected to ServiceNow, Workday, and Salesforce to automate workflows end-to-end.

Always-on assistance

Real-time support in chat for IT and HR requests, without context switching.

Smarter operations

AI interprets natural language, automates approvals, and continuously improves.

Moveworks met our employees where they were—in Teams or Slack—and resolved over 8,000 tickets last year. That’s $1.4M in cost savings and a huge boost to productivity.
