Bookkeeper cannot get necessary information from remote operations staff who avoid paperwork, causing delays and lack of accountability.
Existing communication methods (email, phone, shared drives) are not effective for getting consistent, structured information from field/operations staff who dislike paperwork, leading to missing data and no accountability.
Workarounds Described
- Uses email/phone to chase operations staff for information
- Relies on operations staff to voluntarily provide paperwork they hate doing
Implied Software Gaps
- Mobile app that makes it easy for field staff to submit required financial information on the go
- Automated reminder and escalation system to ensure timely submission without manual follow-up
