Custom spreadsheet solutions
Turn an everyday business task into an Excel tool built around the way you work.
Not every problem needs a new software platform. Sometimes the right answer is a well-designed spreadsheet that guides the user, performs the repetitive work automatically and gives the business a clear, consistent result.
Useful automation does not need to be enormous.
A ten-minute task repeated several times a day can consume a surprising amount of time over a year. It can also become difficult to delegate when one person has memorised all the rules. A tailored Excel tool can make the task faster, clearer and easier to hand over.
Good spreadsheet design matters as much as automation
We focus on layout, input controls, formulas, validation, protection, instructions and error messages as well as the automation itself. Users should know where to start, what to enter and what happened after they clicked a button.
Built for the people who actually use it
Previous projects have included planning models, dashboards, risk tools, reporting workbooks, data-cleansing tools and operational trackers used by teams with very different levels of Excel confidence.
A strong example: resource planning
One custom Excel resource planner was designed for around 30 users including team leaders and managers. It combined staff availability with a forward-looking four-week plan and was estimated to save around 250 staff hours every three weeks.
