The Pilot Framework
The 7-Step Controlled Pilot
We believe in earned trust. Here is how we run a structured pilot on your chosen client file:
1
Select a Suitable Client File
Choose an active bookkeeping backlog, quarterly VAT return, or small company year-end file.
2
Agree Scope, Inputs & Deadline
Lock down turnaround time (e.g. 5 business days), software access, and working paper format.
3
Agree Success Criteria Upfront
Benchmark error thresholds, turnaround SLA, and target UK review time saved.
4
Ferret Completes Production Work
Allocated accountant reconciles transactions, lead schedules, and draft accounts.
5
Senior Reviewer Checks File & Issues Query Sheet
File passes through internal senior QA gate; single consolidated query sheet prepared.
6
UK Practice Reviews Output & Saves Time
Your manager reviews working papers, checks query resolutions, and audits review time saved.
7
15-Minute Bilateral Performance Review
Both teams evaluate performance against agreed criteria before deciding on scale.
Proposed Pilot Success Benchmark
