The Challenge

As Incorporatewear continued to grow, its operational requirements were becoming increasingly complex. The business needed to create greater capacity across key functions while maintaining service quality, improving visibility and keeping pace with changing demands. Incorporatewear needed additional capacity and specialist expertise without proportionately increasing the UK headcount.

  • Capacity Under Pressure Growing volumes were placing greater demands on existing teams and processes, making it harder to maintain consistent operational capacity.
  • Service Expectations Customer queries required a more consistent and responsive approach to maintain service quality as demand increased.
  • Operational Visibility The business needed greater insight into performance, workloads, and service levels to identify gaps and manage operations effectively.
  • Functional Support Finance, Procurement and IT required dedicated capability to keep pace with growing business needs and operational demands.
  • Future-Ready Operations The business needed a model that could adapt, automate and scale as requirements evolved over time.
ZOUMA have been instrumental in establishing our India office. They have worked tirelessly across the whole set up, not just the office itself but the people and recruitment, the training, the processes and the day to day running, and they have really driven our operations forward. Throughout, they have acted as a true partner to WWUGL rather than a supplier, and at this point they feel like an extension of our own team. We could not have got the India office to where it is today without them.
