The problem

  • No single system of record across the business.
  • Compliance obligations tracked by a third-party contractor, not the business, creating supplier lock-in and data sovereignty risk.
  • Maintenance history lived in an account the business could not access or control.
  • No prioritisation framework. Whoever escalated most persistently set urgency, not risk or impact.
  • Knowledge fragmented across inboxes, spreadsheets, and memory, leaving with roughly one staff member per year.

The result

For the first time, the business knows the status of every active job, who owns it, and when it needs to be resolved.

  • Every active job carries a priority level, a named owner, and a due date.
  • Inbound reports logged at the point of contact.
  • Maintenance history owned by the business, not a third party.
  • Documented workflows replace institutional memory that used to leave with every departure.
  • Compliance shifted from reactive to proactive internal ownership.

Inbound automation

Six hours of admin a week, gone.

A lettings agency was manually fielding and booking viewing requests coming in from portal adverts. We automated the response and booking flow end to end, freeing more than six hours of admin every week and letting the team pursue more business with the confidence they could handle the influx.

The pattern is replicable to any source of inbound email requests, from any provider. Simple, and very effective, because the workflow underneath it was sound first.

Your operation is the next one we map.
