This workflow automates the process of collecting, analyzing, and reporting KPIs for consulting firms. Designed for strategy, management, and IT consulting agencies, it pulls data from client dashboards or internal tools, aggregates it in Google Sheets, and generates actionable executive summaries using GPT-4o-mini. Alerts and detailed reports are sent to Slack channels and email, ensuring your team and clients are always informed. Critical KPIs trigger immediate notifications, allowing fast responses to underperforming metrics.
