Increased efficiency and reliability in billing for Kali Group thanks to Boond.

Improving operational coordination

Kali Group is a consulting company founded in Lyon in 2021 by four founders: Fabien Triay, Corentin Averseng, Pauline Alexandre, and Shervin Kia. From the very beginning, their vision was clear: to rethink traditional consulting firm models by placing talent freedom at the heart of their approach. At Kali Group, consultants are not constrained—they are free to join the client company directly at the end of their assignment. Kali Group’s mission is to connect the right people, in the right place, at the right time.

As of 2023, Kali Group planned to open three new offices: Lille, Aix-en-Provence, and Strasbourg. Before launching this expansion, however, Kali Group wanted a business solution capable of supporting its growth and improving operational coordination. It was in this context that the firm chose Boond.

A solution to help admin and HR teams speed up operations

Before deploying Boond, Kali Group teams mainly relied on Excel and Word to manage invoicing. A significant amount of time was spent gathering information:

• Time tracking was handled in a separate tool.For each invoice, teams had to access the employee’s file, retrieve the information, and manually transcribe it into the invoice. Time was tracked in hours, while billing was done in days.The tool offered no validation workflow, meaning everything had to be constantly checked.
• Sales teams were constantly solicited to retrieve customer information and prepare project invoicing.
• Invoices were created in Wordand customers were contacted by email or phone.

Deploying Boond allowed Kali Group to centralize all activity within a single tool and ensure data reliability. It also enabled all business teams to collaborate more effectively by bringing sales, HR, and administrative teams together on one shared business solution:

• Consultants now enter their activity directly in Boond (time, expenses, absences). Onboarding was very fast thanks to a simple tutorial and the Boond mobile application, which was quickly adopted.
• Support teams manage all data in the tool, from opportunity detection to invoicing. Time entries automatically feed into invoices, no projects can be forgotten, and invoices and reminders can be sent in just a few clicks.
• Teams move faster and communicate better. Sharing and discussion threads on Boond records allow efficient collaboration without losing any history.

Switching everything to Boond and synchronizing all data has delivered significant time savings for teams. It has also helped reduce data entry errors. Boond’s alerting and control features enable Kali Group to manage its operations more effectively.

Before Boond, Kali Group spent one day per month generating 30 invoices. Today, 150 invoices are created and sent in a single day.

The fact that everything has been switched to Boond and that the data is now synchronized with each other offers a real time saver for teams. It also helps to reduce input errors. Indeed, Boond's alerting and control functionalities help Kali Group to better manage its operations.

Before Boond, Kali Group spent around four days per month following up with customers. With Boond, half a day is enough.

Teams can now track all invoices directly in Boond, send mass reminders using email templates, and monitor invoice statuses. All low–value-added manual tasks have been eliminated, allowing teams to focus on what really matters.

An ally for better financial profitability management

With Boond, sales teams can now quickly and easily qualify the financial data of their projects and access key indicators such as revenue, costs, margins, and profitability.

• Simple data entry - Sales teams simply enter the daily rate and the number of days sold. The tool automatically retrieves the consultant’s daily cost from their contract in Boond.
• Data synchronization - As soon as a need is converted into a project, all financial data is automatically carried over.
• Production monitoring - Once the project starts, time tracking directly feeds production indicators, allowing teams to monitor performance and check real project profitability.
• Billing tracking - Finally, invoicing enables real-time control over amounts billed for each project.

Boond, more than a tool, a real growth partner for Kali Group

The teams are unanimous: using Boond has really changed their How to work on a daily basis. The tool allows them to improve collaboration between the various divisions, to structure their operational excellence, and above all to strengthen the results-oriented culture within the group.

Beyond the tool, the support of the Boond teams also made the difference.

The onboarding on the solution was quick and pragmatic:

• Support in setting up the solution,
• A first grouped session to take ownership of the CRM and the candidate module,
• Several sessions to deepen the admin and HR areas,
• A simple tutorial on entering activity shared with consultants - they praised the intuitiveness of the solution!

According to Kali Group, the proximity, availability and advice of the Boond teams have greatly contributed to accelerating this increase in skills. The expertise of their trainer Paola, as well as the responsiveness of the Support team are highly appreciated: at the slightest doubt or need, the teams know that they can create a ticket and that they will receive an answer within the day. The fact of being able to contribute to the roadmap and regularly share suggestions for changes that are then developed is also highly appreciated by Kali Group. Finally, being able to meet the teams and also other customers of the solution during events organized by Boond is a real plus for enriching its network and detecting new business opportunities.
