2025 Awards Case Study: Making customer service smarter, faster, and more efficient at Trainline

Trainline ditched a clunky old phone system and brought in a faster, smarter one. It routes calls better, saves cash, and makes coaching easier. Now teams have more time to focus on what really matters—helping customers.

2025 Awards Case Study: Reinventing customer service through innovation at The Guinness Partnership

2025 Awards Case Study: Workforce planning to support people and performance at NHS Business Services Authority

The team grew fast, but development didn’t keep up. So NHSBSA built a simple framework—Do, Think, Achieve. It gave staff structure, time to grow, and space to thrive. Now, internal talent is rising, and planning is stronger than ever.

2025 Awards Case Study: Transforming knowledge management at NFU Mutual

Info was everywhere — old, scattered, or just missing. So the team built a one-stop space that is clear, up to date, and easy to use. Staff trust the info again, and customers get better answers first time.

2025 Awards Case Study: Making WFM work for everyone at Newcastle Building Society

Planning was difficult. Forecasts didn’t match the real workload. So they simplified, introduced smarter tools, and brought everyone along for the ride. Now, service is quicker, people feel supported, and planning finally works for everyone—not just the system.
