A Spatial Approach to Streamlining Operations

At COMPROSE, we are all about streamlining operations to get the best possible performance.  Often that involves crafting clear SOPs and policies with Zavanta software.  But there are other factors including how you structure your office. Here are a few ideas to consider.
