The challenge

Granite had been running their recruitment operations on Bullhorn – a platform that had become costly and difficult to use in day-to-day. They made the decision to move to JobAdder, a more modern and cost-effective recruitment system.


The migration wasn’t straightforward. JobAdder needed to integrate with their timesheet portal – a separate platform used to process contractor timesheets – and the whole project had to be completed in under a month. Granite needed someone to take ownership of the project and coordinate all three parties.

How Mokora helped

1. Project management & coordination

Mokora took the lead on planning and coordination across Granite, JobAdder, and the timesheet portal – keeping all three parties aligned, managing the timeline, and making sure nothing fell through the gaps.

2. Data migration

We handled the full data migration from Bullhorn into JobAdder – including the integration with the timesheet portal. The software vendor had quoted £2,500. By doing it ourselves, Granite paid £1,000 and saved £1,500 – more than half the migration cost.

3. Testing & quality assurance

We defined the testing scenarios, coordinated user acceptance testing, and worked through issues with the integration before go-live – so Granite’s team could go live with confidence.

Results

  • Migration completed in under a month
  • Delivered on time and under budget
  • Granite’s team tested and signed off before go-live
  • £1,500 saved vs. software vendor’s own quote
  • JobAdder and timesheet portal fully integrated
  • Clean data migration from Bullhorn to JobAdder

Why it works

End-to-end ownership

Mokora took full responsibility for planning, coordination, and delivery – so Granite’s team didn’t have to manage three separate parties themselves.

Tight timelines, no drama

A one-month migration window is tight. Mokora’s structured approach to planning and testing meant there were no surprises at go-live.

Cost-conscious delivery

By handling the data migration directly rather than passing it to the vendor, we saved Granite £1,500 – more than half the migration cost.
