Brightwater
Sales and customer service software
Excel modelling helped us to create a highly effective web-based application, enabling our client to grow from a startup to over £5m annual turnover.
The brief
Brightwater wanted a tool that could integrate the Market Data Set (MDS) for over 200,000 supply points across Scotland. With a large sales force made up of Brightwater employees and affiliates, the tool needed to provide competitive, accurate and consistent estimates whilst protecting margins, which often varied by different partners and brokers. We also needed to ensure that the tool could adapt as the business grows to deliver its service at scale.
The result
The sales application contributed to Brightwater’s incredible growth, from a startup business in February 2016 to a supplier to over 4,700 premises in 2021. With a turnover in excess of £5m, we’re proud to say that our partnership has led to substantial, long-term results and an ongoing relationship with our client.
In addition, we developed a new suite of software tools that allowed Brightwater to consolidate their accounts from a series of spreadsheets to one coordinated workflow system. This improved efficiency and helped in ensuring their compliance with strict water and wastewater regulations.
