GRANE / CONSULTING
Better workflows. Smarter systems. Less friction.
Most businesses don't need more software. They need their existing systems, people and processes working better together. Grane helps organisations understand how work moves through their business, identify inefficiencies and make practical improvements through better workflows, connected systems and intelligent automation.
Based in Brisbane, working with businesses across Australia.

Independent, technology-agnostic advice
Every organisation operates differently. Our approach begins with understanding the problem, not prescribing technology.
Sometimes the answer is improving an existing workflow. Sometimes it's connecting systems that already exist. And sometimes automation or AI can remove unnecessary manual effort.
We evaluate the options based on your team's needs, existing technology and operational goals.
Grane's consulting recommendations are not dependent on purchasing Grane software.

Who we work with
Experience & perspective
Grane was founded on firsthand experience leading creative teams, managing complex production environments and working across the systems that support them.
Our perspective combines operational leadership, creative production knowledge and hands-on technology experience.
We understand that effective workflows need to work for the people using them, not just look good on a process diagram.
Grane consulting + platform
Grane's consulting services help organisations understand and improve their operations.
The Grane Creative Operations Intelligence platform provides an additional way for suitable creative and marketing teams to monitor workflows, assess briefs, identify risks and improve operational visibility.
Consulting engagements can be delivered independently of the Grane software platform.
Common questions
A workflow consultant examines how work actually moves through your business — how tasks are requested, assigned, reviewed and completed. They identify where time, effort and information are lost, then recommend practical changes to processes, systems or automation that make everyday operations run more smoothly.
A workflow audit typically covers how work enters the business, task allocation and ownership, team handovers, approval processes, the systems supporting the work, and where manual or repetitive effort could be reduced. You receive a current-state assessment, identified bottlenecks and a prioritised set of recommendations. The exact deliverables depend on the agreed scope of the engagement.
Yes — in most cases that's exactly what we do. Many operational problems come from how systems are configured, connected or used, not from the systems themselves. We look for improvements within your existing platforms first, and only recommend new technology where there's a clear case for it.
Often, yes — but only where the underlying process is understood first. We assess where AI and automation can genuinely reduce repetitive work, improve access to information or support faster decisions, and where human review should remain. The goal is practical value, not technology for its own sake.
Yes. While Grane has deep experience in creative and marketing operations, the same workflow, systems and automation principles apply to professional services, operations teams and growing businesses managing complex processes. If your challenge involves how work moves through your organisation, we can likely help.
No. Our consulting recommendations are independent and technology-agnostic. Grane's Creative Operations Intelligence platform can complement a consulting engagement for suitable creative and marketing teams, but it is never a requirement.
Whether you're reviewing your workflow tools, exploring AI automation or simply trying to reduce operational friction, let's talk about where improvements could make the biggest difference.
