Every job gets one of four verdicts.

Department by department, each job in the business gets a verdict and a reason.

  • Build.

    Worth building.

  • Already have it.

    Software you pay for does it now.

  • Fix first.

    The process needs putting right before anything sits on it.

  • Leave it.

    It belongs with a person.

Three of the four send you somewhere other than a build. We give those as plainly as the first.

Sales

  • Quote from enquiry

    Build

    Needs your prices, past jobs and terms.

  • Quote follow-ups

    Already have it

    Booked with the quote. A reminder is a setting.

  • Measure visits booked

    Already have it

    The shared calendar does this now.

Customer care

  • Questions about a job

    Build

    The answers sit in the job file and in Pat’s head.

  • Snag list after fitting

    Fix first

    Kept on paper. Start one list per job.

  • Complaints

    Leave it

    Pat calls each one back. Keep it that way.

Marketing

  • Replies to reviews

    Leave it

    Pat writes them, in Pat’s own words.

  • Photos of finished jobs

    Fix first

    On three phones. Agree one folder first.

  • Website enquiry form

    Already have it

    It already sends to the inbox.

Operations

  • Fitting date offered

    Build

    Reads the workshop schedule, once it is one list.

  • Variations agreed on site

    Build

    Agreed by word on site. Pat needs it in writing.

  • Workshop schedule

    Fix first

    A whiteboard and a spreadsheet. Agree one.

  • Cutting lists

    Leave it

    Jo’s judgement, from the drawings.

Finance

  • Supplier bills to the job

    Build

    Timber bills sit apart from the job’s costing.

  • Final invoice

    Build

    Has to carry each variation and each bill.

  • Price list kept current

    Fix first

    Each change needs an owner and a date.

  • Payroll

    Leave it

    Kept sealed. Nothing we build holds a key.

People

  • New starter’s first week

    Build

    How the work is done lives in people’s heads.

  • Leave requests

    Fix first

    Asked for in three places. Make it one.

  • Hiring a fitter

    Leave it

    Who joins the team is Pat’s call.

Example job. The business shown is not a client.

Stop shopping for AI.

The tool was wrong because it knew nothing. It had never seen your prices, your rules or your people, and it answered anyway.

The next tool will not have seen them either. What makes AI useful to you has to be built around your business.

Your people, rules and systems, drawn as one map.

A goal such as getting from enquiry to booked job crosses departments, people and systems. So we write down how your business runs: who does what, which documents count, which rules and limits apply. You correct it.

As standard, we build every job to work from that one map, so a rule changes in one place.

AI speeds up whatever you give it. Including the mess.

A faster step is not a finished job. A job marked Fix first is fixed before it is built: the schedule kept on a whiteboard and a spreadsheet becomes one list.

A goal is then built in pieces. Each is a whole job, from the moment it starts to a result a named person uses or signs. The finding, drafting and checking happen before that person looks.

Every answer points to the line it came from.

As standard, we build each piece to cite the source material it used. Your reviewer can then check a figure where it came from.

Add the Business Knowledge Layer and your prior work comes in too: past quotes, price lists, policies. Every output is cited to its source.

Nothing leaves without your person.

We build the check in as a step of the job, not a habit. The job is built to stop there until the person you named signs, and their correction is kept.

One part of the system compares each draft with your rules and flags what does not match. It never approves.

We integrate with your tools.

Connections are scoped per installation. Before the system reads anything, we write down what it may read and who approves.

As standard, each part is given only the access its job needs, and none to what you seal, payroll for one.

Reading
What the system may read is written down before it reads anything.
Writing
Reading and writing are separate permissions, and write actions are listed one by one.
Access
Each working part holds a credential for its own job and nothing wider.

We start with what you want the business to do.

The first call asks where you want the business to go, then follows one recent piece of work through it. That is how we find the work that carries the goal.

The next step may be a simpler fix, a week’s check on your own cases, a piece to build, a later date, or nothing.

Larger organisations start the same way: one build, accepted in writing.

Service guarantee

Our guarantee, quoted. Not summarised.

You talk to a founder, and a founder builds it.

We are two founders, Richard Opondo and Rayan Ratego, working remotely from Australia with businesses in Australia and the United States. Richard spent five years in operations and helped scale a provider from zero to 26 homes. Rayan spent eight years in operations. Your Fit Call is with one of us, and we deliver a Build ourselves. A Programme adds engineers, each named to you.

Richard Opondo

Richard owns the fit and every claim we make.

Rayan Ratego

Rayan owns the build, the tests and the release.

Bring the goal, or only the question.

Come with what you want the business to do, or an early question about what AI could do. You need no technical plan, no measured baseline and no named reviewer.

The call is free, 25 minutes, and with a founder. A written note follows either way, including when the answer is not yet.
