We're at our best in operationally painful, admin-heavy businesses — where an owner or MD knows a process is broken but has no internal tech team to fix it. Facilities management and construction are where our operator experience runs deepest — decades on the frontline. The sectors below are where we've proven the same method, not where we claim the same depth.
Reactive-callout SLAs breach — not because work isn't happening, but because chasing is manual and slips. Jobs, deadlines and evidence live across inboxes, spreadsheets and a CAFM nobody fully trusts.
Quoting eats afternoons, variations get missed, and the operational glue between estimating, ops and finance is a person copying numbers between systems. Margin leaks in the gaps nobody owns.
Not decades of sector experience here — the same proof-first method, applied where it's already delivered.
Good firms lose bids they should win — answers that miss what the evaluator scores, claims they can't always back, and quality that swings with whoever's free that week.
The best opportunities are buried across public registers and private datasets no one has time to join up. Projects get scoped across spreadsheets and silos, with no single place to run the work.
Expiries, renewals and audit packs live in someone's head and a colour-coded spreadsheet. One missed date is a lapsed accreditation, a failed audit, or a lost contract.
Invoices nobody chases, double entry between systems, inboxes that swallow the day. The work is essential, repetitive, and quietly expensive in people's time.
Proofworks is led by its founder — decades spent inside facilities management, construction, energy, bids and commercial operations, doing the work, not documenting it. Thirty of those years in FM and construction: we know an FM contract from a slide, we know where the margin hides on a build, and we know the difference between a clever demo and a system a team on site will actually use. That's the head start you're buying.
The industry matters less than the process. If you can name the one that annoys you most, we can show you what it's costing — and prove the fix on your own data before you commit.
