From Resistance to Results: £417,500 Projected Annual Impact
A London-based contractor (£22M turnover) had been losing tenders despite solid pricing. Their operations director resisted automation at first, insisting the bid process was "too complex to streamline." Haus of KLAR proved otherwise.
[ TIMELINE ]
4 Weeks
[ CHALLENGE ]
Bid preparation averaged 10 days, while our competitive intelligence showed three rival firms had already reduced to 4–5 days. Each week lost meant bids missed and revenue slipping away. Pipeline analysis showed £750K in bids at risk over the next 12 months if they didn't act.
[ SOLUTION ]
OPS mapped inefficiencies across the bid-prep process, automated document assembly, and streamlined approvals. The build took 15 days, with a critical challenge on day 8: their quantity surveying software used a proprietary format that wouldn't export cleanly. We reverse-engineered the data structure and built a custom parser overnight, keeping the project on track. Using sector intelligence, we demonstrated how competitors were already winning 30–40% more bids due to speed, convincing the board to act.
[ RESULTS ]
£117,500
Annual admin waste eliminated
70%
Faster turnaround (10 → 3 days)

3 additional contracts won worth £300,000 Projected 12-Month Impact: £417,500
