Case studies

Work we can describe in detail

Four projects for small businesses that were spending too many hours on admin. Each one started with a single process, a clear measure of success and a short pilot before anything went live.

  • Harbourline PropertyProperty management

    Tenant correspondence sorted before the office opens

    Harbourline looks after about four hundred units across three towns, and every morning began with an inbox of repair requests, notices and invoices in no particular order. We added a reading step that classifies each message, pulls out the unit reference and files it against the right tenancy, with anything unclear held for the office manager.

  • Ridgeway BrokersInsurance

    Policy wordings read and compared in one pass

    Ridgeway quotes commercial cover for trades and small manufacturers, which meant reading long policy documents by hand before every renewal. The tool now lifts limits, excesses and endorsements into a single comparison table that the broker checks and signs off before it reaches the client.

  • Calder and Stone SupplyWholesale

    Purchase orders entered without anyone retyping them

    Calder and Stone receives orders as PDFs, spreadsheets and scanned pages from close to two hundred stockists, and two people spent their mornings keying them in. Each order is now read, matched against the product catalogue and written into the order system, with low confidence lines queued for a person to confirm.

  • Elmgrove Medical PracticeHealthcare

    Referral letters summarised for the morning list

    Elmgrove takes referrals from six local surgeries in a mix of letters, faxes and portal exports, and the reception team read every one before triage. A summary step now drafts a short structured note for each referral, which the practice team reviews and edits before it reaches a clinician.
