IMAA: a single source of truth for a national network

A custom monday.com CRM replaced scattered spreadsheets with segmented, automated member and partner management.

100% of contact data centralised

The challenge

As IMAA expanded its reach, it identified opportunities to strengthen internal systems to better serve a growing network of members and partners:

  • Member and partner data was spread across multiple systems.
  • Onboarding, communications and invoicing relied on manual workflows.
  • Visibility into stakeholder engagement was limited.
  • There was no way to segment communications by role, state, or agency size.

The solution

Axela implemented a custom monday.com CRM tailored to IMAA’s needs:

  • Segmented contact management boards
  • Automated workflows for onboarding and communications
  • Dashboards for leadership visibility
  • Contact ringfencing by state, role, and agency type

IMAA now operates with a single source of truth, and leadership has real-time access to segmented data and reporting.

The impact

  • 100% of contact data centralised across members and partners
  • 70% reduction in manual comms time through tracked email workflows
  • 90% decrease in spreadsheet dependency across the team

In their words

“Axela helped us replace manual processes with a system that works for us. We now have full visibility across our contacts and communications, and the whole team is working from the same source of truth.”
