The operating challenge

Prove the operating model before a broader rollout.

Goodman wanted a bounded way to assess contract creation, approval routing, e-signature and document storage around a repeatable property workflow before connecting the platform to wider group systems.

  1. 01

    Test lease agreements and pre-lease questionnaires with a focused Tokyo group.

  2. 02

    Measure the effect on document creation, approvals and agreement tracking.

  3. 03

    Identify the IT, training and integration requirements for a later rollout.

What was implemented

A sandboxed pilot designed around the real lease process.

The Tokyo team worked in a controlled environment with onboarding and biweekly check-ins. CRM and cloud-storage integrations were intentionally reserved for a later phase, keeping the initial test focused and low-friction.

01

Real documents

The trial covered lease agreements and pre-lease questionnaires used by the Tokyo team.

02

Workflow evaluation

Users tested document generation, approvals, e-signatures and centralized tracking together.

03

Supported adoption

Onboarding sessions and biweekly check-ins supported the pilot group throughout the trial.

04

Phase-two clarity

The pilot defined the CRM, cloud-storage and regional training work needed for expansion.

The operational result

A clearer process, with the evidence kept inside it.

The trial reported faster document creation, a more streamlined approval and e-signature process, and easier access to centrally tracked contracts—while giving Goodman evidence for its rollout decision.
