Sample case — pending client publication. This is a representative example of the kind of system we build for a professional services business. Figures and details are illustrative until the named client case study is published.

01  /  The problem

The business & where it was stuck

Client data sat in the CRM, time in one tool, and financials in another. Partners couldn't see project margin without a manual export, so over-servicing was only caught after it had already eaten the budget.

02  /  What we built

One system, engineered around how they operate.

01

A delivery hub that joins CRM, time tracking, and finance into a single, live view of every engagement.

02

Real-time project margin and utilisation, calculated from the systems the firm already runs.

03

An approval-gated workflow for scope changes, so budget impact is visible before work begins.

04

Automated client status updates, composed from project data instead of assembled by hand.
