Managing Director Gary Nicholls explained how Freeman Clarke helped Swiftclean:

“Over the years, our IT systems had grown organically. We’d purchased a number of ‘best of breed’ systems but failed to make the most of them or integrate them. As a result, there was a lot of manual data re-entry and a huge reliance upon Excel spreadsheets. We knew the situation had to change but recognized that most suppliers are trying to sell their own products. I needed an independent expert to get to know us, understand us, and challenge our thinking through digital innovation.

I was introduced to David Tellis by Freeman Clarke because of his background, cultural fit and locality. He quickly became a trusted partner to Swiftclean and has invested a huge amount of time working with us to build a close working relationship. Following an extensive requirement capturing exercise and market review, David introduced us to a shortlist of suppliers and systems. With his help, we chose a bespoke development route with a company that has turned out to be extremely responsive. David even helped us to secure the funding for the project. Together, we are building a system that completely meets the current and future needs of Swiftclean, enabling us to be more efficient than our competitors and therefore grow over time. Meanwhile, David continues to look for ways to increase efficiency and save money in other IT-related areas.”
