Warner Music Group / Delivered workflow

Move a request from intake to closure

The problem

Each request needed repeated setup, and progress was spread across disconnected handoffs.

My contribution

I built a Microsoft 365 workflow connecting the request, records, tasks, updates, and closure.

Delivered result ≈96% less setup time

Request setup fell from roughly two hours to five minutes. People could see ownership and status.

One request. See what happens.

Interactive reconstruction

Fictional sample of the workflow I built. Edit the form or explore a stage. Nothing is sent or saved.

The right questions, up front.

Choose a change type. The form asks for the context that matters.

Use fictional details only.

The setup takes care of itself.

One submission creates three connected pieces of work.

Close the loop with the people affected.

The workflow generates a Service Request Bulletin. After a person reviews it for accuracy and approves it, publication and notifications to the requestor and impacted group happen automatically.

What this demonstrates.

I turn a business need into a connected workflow, with clear ownership from submission to closure.
