Aurora is a fast-growing, multi-entity energy services business. As they scaled, their core platforms NetSuite, Salesforce, SharePoint and Power BI needed constant improvement, not just one-off fixes. They couldn’t justify hiring four specialists internally, and they didn’t want four separate vendors.
They needed one cohesive team who knew their systems and felt like part of theirs.
Rebuilt Salesforce around how Aurora actually sells: weighted revenue forecasting by period, target-versus-actual tracking by account and segment, sales processes tailored to each business line, and dashboards giving teams and management a live view of the pipeline. Rollout with training across the US, Australia, Chile and the UK.
Extensive Configuration to meet multi-business line and country needs (UK, Australia, US). Reporting by business line with project profitability visible to finance and management, a custom rate structure so resource cost and charge-out rates flow correctly onto time entries. Tighter financial controls through project-driven purchase order approvals, automated invoice bank details, corrected payment due dates and enforced accrual reversals.
Built document management architecture, access controls and internal collaboration, integrated with Microsoft Power Automate to streamline business processes and automate workflows. This provided Aurora with a consistent and secure foundation for managing and sharing business information.
Data modelling and cross-system reporting giving leadership key performance information and replacing manual processes with live dashboards. Built dashboards spanning the business: a CFO view of financial performance, CTR data compared against actuals, a Salesforce manager view, and a personnel and competency dashboard.
Scale from part-time support to full-time delivery as demand changes. No long hiring cycles, no redundancy risk.
