“A clean, smooth process compared to other systems – a clear winner”
Pure Fitout Financial Controller Anthony Doyle is a man preparing for phenomenal business growth. When it came to selecting a software provider to support his growth ambitions, RedSky was the natural first choice.
Anthony is no stranger to Summit – his previous organisation has been a RedSky customer for around 15 years. After moving to fittings specialist Pure Fitout in 2017, he found it challenging to work with the company’s existing system: SAGE Line 50. “The SAGE package doesn’t have a contract ledger,” he said. “That makes it harder to understand contract costs from a cash valuation reconciliation position.”
“Things are really taking off at Pure Fitout: year one turnover was just over £4 million; we’ve just completed year two, with a turnover of £9.2 million; and we’re projecting around £13.5 million for year three. We needed a system capable of supporting that accelerated growth.”
Anthony invited bids from four vendors, including RedSky. He said: “When it came to the final choice, I took a step back, because of my previous relationship with RedSky, and let my Managing Director decide.
“What swung it for him was Summit’s ability to operate in functions outside of the Finance department, through its document management system. He felt RedSky was a clean, smooth process compared to other systems – a clear winner.”
Having signed the contract at the end of January, Anthony will have a project kick-off meeting with RedSky at the end of February and expects Pure Fitout to go live in June or July this year.
When asked what he hopes this new partnership with RedSky will achieve, Anthony said: “It will facilitate our business growth; give us greater visibility on contract costs; enable us to achieve efficiencies through technology; and allow us to interpret our information better, leading to stronger, more informed business decisions.”
