Case Study

GKW Wrought Iron

Custom CRM and job management system that transformed operations, saving hours of admin time and giving complete business visibility.

The Challenge

GKW designs and installs complex automated gates. As the business scaled, their legacy systems became a bottleneck. They were relying on memory, paper notes, and a partially broken off-the-shelf CRM that couldn't handle their specific workflow.

"We didn't know who was doing what, or when. Admin was eating up our weekends."

Data Chaos

Data was scattered across fragmented systems. Finding a client's history took minutes, not seconds.

Manual Overload

Admin staff spent hours manually cross-referencing paper diaries with digital records.

No Visibility

There was no clear visibility over who was doing what, or when projects would be completed.

Workflow Bottlenecks

Job tracking relied heavily on people's memory, creating delays and confusion.

From Fragmented Data to a Unified Digital Ecosystem

We moved beyond the limitations of off-the-shelf software to build a bespoke solution that maps 1:1 with GKW's operational reality. A single source of truth for the entire company.

Smart Workflows

Digitised the entire job lifecycle, reducing human error to near zero.

Mobile Field Companion

Engineers capture photos and client signatures instantly via tablet.

Legacy Data Rescue

Successfully sanitised and migrated years of fragmented historical data.

Real Business Results

Measurable improvements across the entire operation.

By replacing manual processes with intelligent automation, we delivered results that changed how GKW runs day-to-day.

Hours of Admin Saved

Automated workflows save countless hours of manual data entry every single week.

Complete Visibility

Real-time operational visibility across all active projects, from quote to installation.

Single Source of Truth

Jobs, clients, and paperwork are now unified in one accessible, secure cloud location.

More Time On-Site

Engineers spend more time working on-site and significantly less time on paperwork.

Designed for Efficiency

The interface was designed with GKW's daily workflows in mind. The scheduler view gives instant visibility over engineer availability and job assignments, while the client profile centralises all project history, communications, and documentation in one place. Every interaction was optimised to reduce clicks and cognitive load.
