# How Meridian Cut Reporting Time by 80%

**Industry** Logistics · **Team** 12-person ops group · **Using Inkrun since** 2025

## The challenge

Meridian's operations team produced 40+ client reports a month
in a shared doc template. Every copy-paste drifted the format a
little further, and senior staff spent Fridays fixing fonts.

## The solution

Reports now live as Markdown generated from Meridian's data
pipeline. A single templated render step turns each one into a
branded PDF — no hands on formatting, ever.

> "The first month we got Fridays back. The second month our
> clients asked who we'd hired to redesign the reports."
> — **Ava Chen, Head of Operations**

## The results

| Metric               | Before | After  |
| -------------------- | ------ | ------ |
| Time per report      | 95 min | 18 min |
| Format defects/month | 23     | 0      |
| Reports per analyst  | 9      | 34     |

## What's next

Meridian is rolling the same pipeline out to client-facing
QBR decks and compliance summaries.
