How we work

A consultant, not a software reseller

As business automation consultants, we don't sell a fixed list of automations. Every engagement starts with a free audit of how your business actually runs, then we build whatever will save the most time for that business specifically.

Audit before anything else

We map your business before recommending a single automation.

Microsoft 365 automation consultant

Most clients are already on Microsoft 365, so that's usually where we build.

Workflow automation consultant

Custom workflows built around your business, not a template.

Managed after launch

We maintain and improve what we build, we don't hand it over and vanish.

No obligation, and no package to commit to until you know what you actually need.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Are you a workflow automation consultant, or do you build custom software?

We're a workflow automation consultant. We build automations inside tools you already use, most often Microsoft 365, rather than building standalone software from scratch.

Do you offer Microsoft 365 automation consultancy specifically?

Yes. Most of our clients are already on Microsoft 365, so a large part of what we do is Microsoft 365 automation consultancy using Power Automate, SharePoint and Outlook.

Do you only work with businesses in Sussex?

No. We're based in Worthing and visit clients across Sussex in person, but Foundation, Automate and Transform are all available to businesses anywhere in the UK.

Can I move to a different plan later?

Yes. Most clients start smaller and move up once they see what automation does for their admin. There's no penalty for changing plan.

What happens if we go over our plan's headcount?

Extra seats beyond your plan's band are billed per person, rather than forcing you to jump to a bigger plan early.

Is there a contract, or can I cancel any time?

Plans run monthly. We'd rather earn the renewal by the work being worth it than lock you into a term.

How is your ongoing consultancy retainer different from hiring an operations person?

It gives you an ongoing automation consultancy retainer rather than a fixed job description. We keep finding and building automations as your business changes, without the overhead of a full-time hire.

Do the automations you build come from a fixed list?

No. What you get is chosen from your free audit based on what will save your business the most time, not picked from a pre-built menu.
