Schools that run as well as they teach.

Education

• Admissions is a sales process

  Private schools in the Gulf compete hard for enrolments. Enquiries left unanswered for days go to the school down the road.

• Inspection frameworks are demanding

  Inspectors in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across Europe expect evidence of process, not just outcomes.

• Investors are buying groups

  School groups are attracting private investment. Diligence asks for governance and data that many schools have never had to produce.

• The ERP or CRM went live and made things worse

  The system fits the vendor's process, not yours.

• Projects finish late and over budget

  Nobody knows a project is late until it is.

• Preparing for investment, acquisition or a bank facility

  Outsiders are about to look at how the company runs.

  Too many projects, none finish.

  Every department launches its own initiatives, people are stretched thin and nothing gets done. We set up a light PMO that decides what starts and what waits.

  Example Projects running at once: 23 → 9

  We're preparing for investment.

  Or a bank facility. Diligence questions expose how much runs on memory and goodwill. We set up governance, controls and records an investor or bank can rely on.

  Example Time to answer diligence questions: 3 weeks → 3 days

  We bought a CRM. Nobody uses it.

  The licences are paid, the data is out of date and sales still works from spreadsheets. We set the CRM up around how you sell and connect it to the rest.

  Example Duplicate entries per lead: 3 → 0

  We can't afford the wrong system.

  We need a new one. Vendors all promise the same, and the last selection went badly. We define what you need from how you work, run the selection and make sure you own the result.

  Example Candidate systems: 5 → 1 chosen, with reasons

  Program numbers never match.

  Finance always has different ones. For NGOs and development organizations, donor reports are rebuilt by hand from program sheets and finance exports. We connect the data so the report starts from one set of numbers.

  Example Donor report preparation: 10 days → 2 days
