The workflow: Manage processes, track requests, coordinate across departments, maintain SOPs, report to leadership.
The problem operations teams solve with integrations: Operations is the connective tissue of an organization. Ops teams handle intake (requests from other departments), processing (executing on those requests), and reporting (showing leadership what happened). Each stage traditionally lives in a different tool: intake forms in Google Forms, processing data in Google Sheets, reports in slide decks or dashboards.
The ops coordinator — often the most overworked person in the company — spends their day stitching these tools together manually. Copy form responses into the spreadsheet. Update the spreadsheet with completion data from the monday.com board. Screenshot the spreadsheet for the leadership report. It's glue work, and it's endless.
How operations teams use the stack:
Google Forms handles intake. Internal request forms, vendor evaluations, employee surveys, incident reports — all embedded directly on the relevant monday.com boards. When someone submits a request through an embedded form, it creates a monday.com item automatically. The intake process and the work tracking happen in the same place.
Google Sheets is the processing hub. Operations teams embed their working spreadsheets — resource allocation models, capacity trackers, budget reconciliations — directly on monday.com boards. The spreadsheet isn't a separate artifact to maintain; it's a live view on the board that updates as data changes. The ops coordinator can process requests, update tracking data, and manage their board all from one interface.
Google Calendar provides schedule visibility. For ops teams coordinating across departments, seeing everyone's availability and meeting schedules alongside project timelines prevents the "I didn't know they were in meetings all day" problem that derails handoffs.
