We Do Not Start with Software. We Start with Your Business.
A successful system must understand the information people need, the decisions they make and the pressures they experience during a normal working day.
Pringle PCS works with managers, employees, IT teams and customers to understand the complete process before recommending a solution. This allows us to remove duplication, reduce manual administration and connect departments that may currently be working from separate spreadsheets, emails and databases.
We can implement an existing Gekko product, customise a platform around your organisation, integrate with established systems or develop a completely new solution from the ground up.
The result is not simply another application. It is a structured business system supported by practical training, implementation guidance and long-term technical expertise.

Gekko 365
The Customer, Sales and Business Management Centre for Your Organisation
Every successful business is built around its customers, prospects, employees and relationships. Gekko 365 CRM brings these essential areas together within one structured system.
Instead of information being spread across spreadsheets, emails, notebooks and individual employee memories, Gekko 365 creates one central business record. Authorised staff can see customer details, contact history, outstanding jobs, sales opportunities, campaigns, quotations and invoices.

CRM, sales, tasks, invoicing and reportingCRM Is the Central Control Point of a Customer-Focused Business
A CRM should be more than a list of names, telephone numbers and email addresses. It should help the organisation understand every customer, manage every opportunity and ensure important work is not forgotten.
Gekko 365 has been developed and refined since 1995. It provides a structured platform for managing customer relationships, sales, marketing, staff activity, tasks, reporting, invoicing and commercial information.
Customer knowledge belongs to the organisation, not only to one salesperson or account manager. When information is recorded properly, another authorised employee can support the customer if the usual person is absent, changes role or leaves the business.
One Platform Connecting the Complete Customer Journey
Gekko 365 connects customer information with contact history, internal tasks, sales opportunities, marketing, invoices and management reporting.
Customer & Prospect Records
Maintain one organised record for every customer, prospect, supplier or business contact, including addresses, contacts, notes and commercial information.
Complete Contact History
Record calls, emails, meetings, quotations, conversations and agreed actions so the complete relationship remains visible.
Sales Pipeline Management
Track leads, opportunities, estimated values, next actions and conversion progress from first enquiry to confirmed business.
Internal Tasks & Staff Jobs
Create and assign jobs, follow-up calls, customer requests and departmental tasks with ownership, priorities and due dates.
Sales & Marketing Campaigns
Create targeted customer groups, personalised mailshots, campaign follow-ups and new sales opportunities.
Invoices & Commercial Records
Create and manage invoices, review customer transactions and connect financial activity to the wider relationship.
One Complete Customer Record
Employees should not need to search through multiple systems to understand the customer they are supporting.
- Company and trading information
- Multiple contacts and departments
- Telephone numbers and email addresses
- Customer preferences and requirements
- Quotations and opportunity history
- Previous invoices and transactions
- Outstanding tasks and follow-ups
- Supporting documents and notes
Never Lose Customer History
Important customer knowledge should not remain only inside one employee's inbox, notebook or memory.
- Record telephone conversations
- Store meeting notes
- Maintain email history
- Record requests and complaints
- Document agreed actions
- Identify the responsible employee
- Create reminders for future contact
- Allow colleagues to continue the relationship
From First Enquiry to Invoice
Gekko 365 provides a clear sales process so that opportunities are not lost through missed calls, forgotten emails or unclear responsibility.
Capture the Lead
Create the prospect and record where the enquiry came from.
Record the Conversation
Save requirements, questions and agreed actions.
Assign Follow-Up
Create a task for the correct employee with a due date.
Develop the Opportunity
Track value, probability, stage and next action.
Create the Sale
Progress the opportunity into a quotation, order or invoice.
Measure the Result
Review conversion, sales value and campaign performance.
Connect Customer Activity to Internal Staff Tasks
A customer request should not disappear inside an email or depend on somebody remembering it. Gekko 365 allows a task or job to be linked directly to the relevant customer, contact, opportunity or invoice.
Tasks can be assigned to an employee or team, given a priority and due date, monitored through dashboards and transferred when responsibility changes. This gives management a clear view of what has been completed and what still requires action.
Create Sales & Marketing Campaigns
Use customer information intelligently to create relevant communications rather than sending the same message to every contact.
Create Targeted Campaigns
- Select customers by location
- Select customers by industry
- Use previous purchasing history
- Identify inactive customers
- Create prospect groups
- Send personalised email mailshots
- Promote services and special offers
Turn Marketing into Sales
- Record campaign responses
- Create follow-up tasks
- Convert interest into opportunities
- Monitor calls and meetings
- Record quotations
- Measure conversion rates
- Review resulting invoice value
Invoicing, Reporting & Management Control
Gekko 365 connects customer activity to commercial results, helping management understand whether sales and marketing work is producing genuine invoiced business.
Invoice Management
Create invoices and maintain a clear
customer transaction history.
Sales Performance
Review pipeline value, completed sales
and conversion rates.
Staff Activity
Monitor calls, jobs, meetings,
follow-ups and outstanding tasks.

in a clear and measurable format.

Stop Collecting Information That Nobody Uses
Many organisations collect important information through paper documents, Word templates, spreadsheets, emails and disconnected online forms. The information may be difficult to find, incomplete or unavailable when management needs it.
Gekko Forms creates a clear process from the moment a form is designed through to final submission, reporting and follow-up. It allows authorised users to see what has been completed, what remains outstanding and where action is required.
Forms can support inspections, audits, surveys, checks, applications, maintenance, incidents, claims, meter readings, stock processes, deliveries and almost any other business requirement.
Build the Form Your Business Needs
Standard forms can be created through a straightforward form builder without coding. More advanced workflows and specialist widgets can be developed by Pringle PCS.
Easy to Build. Powerful to Use.
Create straightforward forms quickly while retaining the flexibility required for complex business processes.
Drag, Drop, Done

Better Evidence
Photographs, recordings, signatures and location information remain linked to the relevant form and business record.
- Reduce uncertainty and missing information
- Support investigations and customer queries
- Maintain a complete audit trail
- Improve the quality of inspection records
- Provide stronger evidence for compliance
Better Accuracy
Required fields, validation rules and approved choices help employees collect consistent information.
- Reduce incomplete forms
- Prevent invalid number entries
- Standardise wording and classifications
- Record responsible users and completion times
- Improve reporting reliability
Work Offline. Synchronise When Connected.
Employees may need to complete forms in warehouses, buildings, vehicles, plant rooms, construction sites and other locations where internet access is limited or unavailable.
Gekko Forms can support offline working on approved devices. Information is stored securely and synchronised with the central platform when a suitable connection becomes available.
- Continue working without an active connection
- Reduce dependence on paper backup forms
- Synchronise completed information later
- Give remote teams access to approved forms
- Maintain one central business record
AI-Assisted Professional Reporting
The Gekko AI assistant can review submitted statements and suggest clearer, more professional and consistent wording.
The employee remains responsible for reviewing and approving the final statement. AI supports the user; it does not remove professional judgement.
Original statement
The area was messy and not very safe.
Suggested wording
The work area was cluttered and did not
meet the expected housekeeping standard,
creating a potential safety risk that
requires corrective action.
Turn Form Data into Management Information
Submitting a form should be the beginning of the management process, not the end. Gekko Forms turns collected information into dashboards, trends, reports and actions.

Created to Solve a Real Pringle PCS Business Challenge
Pringle PCS originally created Gekko Planner for its own use—not as a product to sell. As a small family business, we needed one practical place to manage customer support requests, training projects, implementation work and bespoke software development.
As the company grew, relying on emails, spreadsheets, notebooks and individual memory became increasingly difficult. We needed to know which client required help, which employee was responsible, what had already been completed and what needed to happen next.
Gekko Planner helped us introduce structure without making project management unnecessarily complicated. It became one of the systems that helped a small family business grow into a recognised training, support and database solutions provider.
We use the same practical experience to help other organisations plan work, support clients, manage resources and maintain control as their own workload grows.
Everything Required for Everyday Project Control
Gekko Planner provides a clear structure for projects and tasks while remaining simple enough for employees, managers and authorised clients to use confidently.
Projects & Milestones
Create projects, define objectives, identify major stages and monitor progress towards completion.
Tasks & Actions
Break projects into clear tasks, actions, deliverables and follow-up requirements.
Ownership
Assign each task to an employee, department, supplier or agreed project resource.
Dates & Deadlines
Record start dates, target dates, deadlines and important project milestones.
Status & Priority
Show whether work is new, planned, in progress, waiting, completed or overdue.
Notes & Communication
Keep project comments, updates, decisions and client communication linked to the work.
Files & Documents
Attach specifications, reports, screenshots, correspondence and supporting documents.
Dashboards & Reports
Review project progress, outstanding work, deadlines and team activity.
From Request to Completed Project
Gekko Planner turns an email, telephone call or client request into an organised project with ownership and visible progress.
Capture the Request
Record the client request, internal idea, problem or business requirement.
Create the Project
Define the objective, customer, project lead and required result.
Build the Task List
Break the work into manageable actions, milestones and deliverables.
Assign Resources
Give responsibility to employees, departments and supporting resources.
Track Progress
Update status, comments, dates, completed work and outstanding actions.
Complete & Report
Confirm completion, retain the history and report the project outcome.
A Better Support Experience for Your Clients
Pringle PCS support clients can use Gekko Planner to submit requests and follow agreed projects without relying on a chain of separate emails.
- Log a support or development request
- Describe the required work
- Attach supporting files or images
- See who is managing the request
- Review current project status
- Read agreed progress updates
- View target or completion dates
- Maintain one clear project history
Better Control for the Internal Project Team
Employees and managers receive the structure required to plan and deliver work consistently.
- Assign the correct project lead
- Allocate work to team members
- Record priorities and dependencies
- Identify work waiting for the client
- Review overdue and upcoming tasks
- Move tasks when responsibility changes
- Report progress to management
- Keep client and internal updates together
Project Visibility for Long-Term Clients
Gekko Planner has supported the way Pringle PCS manages customer requests and bespoke development projects for long-standing clients. The approach has been used to provide project visibility for organisations including Nissan and Renault.
Authorised stakeholders can review planned work, current actions, development progress, outstanding decisions and completed activity. This creates a clearer relationship between the customer and development team.
Rather than waiting for a formal meeting to discover what has happened, the client can see agreed live information and the project team can maintain one controlled history of the work being delivered.
Simple Planning with an Advanced Route
Connected Project Working
Gekko Planner and Microsoft Project
Gekko Planner is designed for straightforward daily planning. Microsoft Project provides the advanced scheduling and resource-management tools required by specialist project managers.
Gekko Planner
The accessible project and task environment for employees, managers, clients and everyday contributors.
- Easy project and task creation
- Client request management
- Simple task ownership
- Live status and progress
- Shared comments and files
- Practical dashboards
- Minimal specialist training required
Microsoft Project
The advanced planning environment for project managers requiring detailed scheduling and resource analysis.
- Gantt charts
- Task dependencies
- Critical-path analysis
- Baselines and project variance
- Advanced resource assignment
- Workload and capacity analysis
- Detailed project reporting
Export for Advanced Project Planning
Where configured, approved project and task information can be exported from Gekko Planner into Microsoft Project. This allows project managers to continue using Gantt charts, dependencies, timelines, resources and advanced scheduling without requiring every project contributor to work directly inside Microsoft Project.
Pringle PCS delivers Microsoft Project training from introductory planning through to advanced scheduling, resources, tracking and project-control techniques. We can therefore support both the simple Gekko Planner workflow and the advanced Microsoft Project environment.
Purposefully Simple and Cost-Effective
Not every employee needs a complex professional project-management application. Many people only need to see their tasks, update progress, attach information and understand what must be completed next.
Gekko Planner provides a shared online environment that reduces dependence on individual spreadsheets, separate project files and conflicting document versions. Everyone works from the same authorised plan.
The commercial structure can be designed around the organisation and agreed use of the system, reducing the pressure to purchase and manage specialist project-planning licences for every occasional contributor.

Gekko Planner can be used across departments, customers and different project types.
Client Support
Manage customer requests, incidents and follow-up actions.
Software Development
Track requirements, development, testing and release activity.

Make Better Use of the Screens Already Inside Your Business
Many organisations have televisions or monitors in reception areas, meeting rooms, warehouses, canteens and employee spaces. These screens are often switched off, showing an ordinary screensaver or displaying information that has not been updated for months.
Gekko Display turns these screens into practical communication tools. Images can be uploaded, organised into named slideshows and displayed continuously in a professional full-screen loop.
The content can support marketing, employee communication, health and safety, training, company branding, customer information and internal performance awareness.
When information needs to change, an authorised user updates the slideshow through the portal. The approved display then shows the new content without somebody having to manually replace files on each individual screen.
From Image Upload to Full-Screen Display
Gekko Display is designed to make digital signage straightforward for organisations that do not need a complicated broadcasting platform.
Create the Content
Prepare a branded poster, safety notice, promotion, statistic or company message.
Upload the Image
Add the approved image to the secure Gekko Display portal.

White-Label Software Development
Your Brand. Your Client. Your Commercial Opportunity. Our Development Expertise.
Pringle PCS can design, develop and support professional software solutions that are presented entirely under your company’s branding. You retain the customer relationship, control your selling price and build a new product or service offering without having to recruit and maintain a complete development team.
Our highly experienced developers work behind the scenes, giving your organisation access to decades of database, web, integration and business-system development experience while your brand remains at the front of the customer relationship.

Pringle PCS Support
Launch a Professional Software Product Without Starting from an Empty Page
Creating a successful business system takes much more than writing a few screens and database tables. It requires process knowledge, architecture, security, user permissions, reporting, testing, deployment, support and continuous development.
Pringle PCS has spent decades developing customer management systems, operational databases, web portals, workflow tools, dashboards, integrations, stock solutions, invoicing platforms and secure online services.
A white-label partnership allows your organisation to benefit from that experience immediately. Instead of beginning at the first line of code, your project can begin from proven development methods, established system structures and reusable technical foundations.
This can move a project forward considerably faster, reduce technical risk and give your company a professional product that can be sold as part of your own service portfolio.
What Can Be Developed Under Your Brand?
The solution can be built around a specific customer requirement or developed as a product that your company can sell repeatedly to several clients.
Business Databases
Customer, staff, stock, asset, task, project, case, compliance and operational management systems.
Customer Portals
Secure branded portals allowing customers, partners or suppliers to submit, review and manage information online.
CRM & Sales Systems
Customer records, contact history, sales opportunities, campaigns, tasks, quotations, orders and invoices.
Workflow Automation
Replace repetitive administration with approvals, alerts, automatic task creation and structured departmental workflows.
System Integration
Connect existing applications, databases, finance systems, Microsoft 365 services and approved external platforms.
Reporting & Dashboards
Create branded reports and live dashboards that turn operational information into meaningful management insight.
You Own the Customer Relationship and Control the Commercial Opportunity
Your company determines how the product is positioned, how it is marketed and what the end customer is charged. You issue the customer invoice and retain 100% of the revenue invoiced by your company .
Pringle PCS charges only the development, hosting, licence, maintenance or support fees agreed directly with your organisation. We do not automatically take a percentage of your customer invoice or interfere with the commercial relationship you have developed.
This gives your business the opportunity to add a new service, increase customer value and create recurring revenue while retaining complete control over your pricing and client relationship.
A Clear White-Label Relationship
The end customer sees and works with your company. Pringle PCS provides the technical development and support behind the service.
Your Customer
The customer purchases the branded product and receives the service through your organisation.
Your Company
You manage the brand, customer, pricing, contract, invoice and commercial relationship.
Pringle PCS
We provide agreed development, technical expertise, hosting, maintenance and support behind the scenes.
From Commercial Opportunity to Branded Product
The partnership is structured so that responsibilities, ownership, branding, pricing and support are clear before development begins.
Identify the Opportunity
You identify a client requirement, market gap or potential software product.
Define the Partnership
Agree branding, responsibilities, ownership, commercial terms and support arrangements.
Design the Solution
Map workflows, users, permissions, interfaces, reports and customer requirements.
Develop and Brand
Build the solution using your branding and the agreed technical architecture.
Test and Launch
Test real customer scenarios, train users and introduce the product professionally.
Sell and Develop
You sell the product while both teams support and continue improving the solution.
Choose the Partnership Model That Suits Your Business
White-label development can be structured around your technical resources, commercial objectives and preferred level of ownership.
White-Label Hosted Solution
Pringle PCS develops, hosts and maintains the system while it is presented to customers using your branding.
- Your branding and client relationship
- Pringle PCS technical management
- Agreed hosting and support charges
- No need for an internal development team
Branded Product Resale
Your company sells the solution as part of its own product range and determines the end-client price.
- You control customer pricing
- You issue the customer invoice
- You retain your invoiced revenue
- Pringle PCS charges agreed partner fees
Co-Development Partnership
Pringle PCS works alongside your developers, sharing project responsibility and transferring practical knowledge.
- Joint architecture and development
- Developer mentoring and support
- Internal knowledge transfer
- Continued Pringle PCS escalation support
Source-Code Assignment
The agreed project-specific source code can be released and legally assigned to your company under a written ownership agreement.
- Access to agreed source code
- Your developers can continue development
- Optional ongoing Pringle PCS support
- Clear ownership terms before development
Clear and Flexible Code Ownership
The code is designed and authored by Pringle PCS. The legal ownership and usage rights are then determined by the partnership model selected and documented in the project agreement.
| Option | Ownership | Your Development Team | Pringle PCS Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard White-Label Licence | Pringle PCS retains ownership of the software and grants your company agreed rights to brand, use and resell it. | Your team can administer and use the solution but does not automatically receive the complete source code. | Development, maintenance, hosting and technical support remain managed by Pringle PCS. |
| Project-Specific Source Release | Agreed project-specific code is released under the licence or ownership terms stated in the development agreement. | Your developers can review, maintain and continue developing the released project-specific code. | Pringle PCS can remain available for support, mentoring, development and specialist escalation. |
| Full Ownership Assignment | Legal ownership of the agreed project-specific material transfers to your company following completion, payment and formal written assignment. | Your development team can independently maintain and extend the assigned solution. | Pringle PCS can continue supporting the system if requested, but your company is not locked into mandatory development support. |
Created by Pringle PCS, with Full Ownership Available Where Required
Every solution remains designed and created by Pringle PCS. Under the standard white-label arrangement, Pringle PCS retains legal ownership and provides the partner with agreed rights to brand, sell and use the product.
Where your organisation requires full ownership, ownership of the agreed project-specific source code can be formally transferred through a written assignment. The code remains originally authored by Pringle PCS, but your organisation becomes the legal owner of the material included within the assignment.
This allows your own developers to continue improving and expanding the product internally while still retaining access to Pringle PCS for technical support, specialist development or additional project capacity.
How Reusable Development Benefits Every Project
Pringle PCS has spent many years developing frameworks, reusable modules, utilities, reporting tools, security controls and proven technical methods. These assets can move a new project forward much faster than beginning every solution from nothing.
Unless an exclusive assignment is expressly agreed, Pringle PCS retains ownership of its pre-existing frameworks, reusable components, generic utilities, development methods and technical know-how. We may use these non-confidential foundations to support and improve other projects.
This balanced approach allows each new project to benefit from years of development while protecting the confidential and commercially valuable elements that belong specifically to your organisation and customers.
Continue Development with Your Own Team
Where source-code access or ownership has been agreed, your internal developers can take an active role in maintaining and expanding the solution.
- Review the agreed source code
- Add new functions and modules
- Create additional reports
- Develop customer-specific enhancements
- Maintain internal integrations
- Build internal technical knowledge
- Reduce dependence on one supplier
Retain Pringle PCS Support
Transferring source-code ownership does not mean losing access to the original development team. Pringle PCS can continue supporting your developers and the live solution.
- Technical escalation support
- Architecture and database guidance
- Developer mentoring
- Code and security review
- Additional development capacity
- Hosting and deployment support
- Long-term system improvement
Protecting Your Brand, Clients and Commercial Position
White-label development depends on trust, confidentiality and clearly defined responsibilities.
Confidentiality
Client information, business processes and commercially sensitive project details are handled according to the agreed confidentiality requirements.
Secure Development
User access, development environments, permissions, data protection and deployment responsibilities are defined for the project.
Written Agreements
Branding, ownership, licensing, exclusivity, fees, support and source-code rights are confirmed before development begins.
The Commercial Benefits
A white-label partnership gives your company a credible development capability and a new route to recurring product and service revenue.
Important Ownership and Licensing Information
Final ownership, licence, resale, exclusivity, confidentiality, source-code, hosting and support terms will be confirmed within the written proposal and development agreement before work begins.
Any third-party or open-source components used within a solution remain subject to their applicable licences. A full project-specific ownership assignment does not automatically transfer ownership of pre-existing Pringle PCS frameworks or third-party components unless they are expressly included within the written agreement.

Bespoke System Development
Software Designed Around the Way Your Business Actually Works
Your organisation should not have to change its most important working processes simply because an off-the-shelf system cannot support them. Pringle PCS develops bespoke software, databases, web portals and integrated business systems designed around your real operational requirements.
We begin by understanding the people, departments, information, pressures and decisions behind the process. We then create a practical solution that removes unnecessary administration, connects systems and gives management the information needed to control and improve the organisation.

Bespoke Development in Action
Databases, portals, integration, automation and operational reportingBespoke Development Is About Removing Workarounds
Businesses often outgrow the software they originally purchased. Employees begin creating additional spreadsheets, duplicating information, manually copying data between departments and relying on individual knowledge to keep important processes moving.
These workarounds create hidden costs. They consume employee time, increase the risk of mistakes and make the organisation dependent on a small number of people who understand how everything fits together.
Pringle PCS replaces fragmented processes with a structured solution. The objective is not to add unnecessary technology. It is to make the operation simpler, more accurate, easier to manage and ready for future development.
Complete Bespoke Development Capability
Pringle PCS can manage the complete project or work alongside your existing IT and development teams.
Process Mapping
We study the existing process, information flow, responsibilities and operational problems before recommending the solution.
Database Development
Structured databases designed to manage customers, staff, stock, assets, tasks, applications, claims and business information.
Web Portals
Secure online portals allowing customers, suppliers, employees, schools, laboratories or approved partners to submit and review data.
System Integration
Connect existing software and external services, including enterprise, finance, warehouse and operational platforms.
Barcode & Scanning
Barcode, mobile and scanning tools supporting warehouse movements, assets, cages, stock, picking and product returns.
Workflow Automation

Reporting & Dashboards
Turn operational information into clear reports, dashboards, rankings and management performance information.
Secure User Access
Role-based access, individual accounts, audit trails and controlled visibility for internal and external system users.
From Business Problem to Working Solution
Every project is planned around the organisation, the available information and the measurable outcome the system needs to achieve.
Discovery
Understand the business problem, users, departments and required outcome.
Process Review
Map the current process and identify duplication, delays and operational risk.
Solution Design
Define the database, workflow, interfaces, permissions and reporting structure.

Build the agreed solution using controlled, documented development stages.
Testing & Training
Test real scenarios and train users around their actual roles and responsibilities.
Support & Development
Support the live system and continue improving it as the organisation changes.
Integrate Existing Systems
A new solution does not always require the replacement of every existing platform. Where appropriate, Pringle PCS can connect established systems and create a controlled exchange of data.
- Finance and accounts platforms
- Sage and related business applications
- Enterprise systems such as A400
- Microsoft 365 and reporting tools
- Warehouse and barcode systems
- Customer and supplier portals
- Existing databases and spreadsheets
- Third-party services and data feeds
Build a New Platform
Where no suitable system exists, Pringle PCS can create a new web-based platform around the complete operational requirement.
- Secure internal business systems
- External customer and partner portals
- Application and approval systems
- Stock, asset and resource management
- Claims and returns platforms
- Laboratory and testing schemes
- Performance and productivity systems
- Bespoke management dashboards
Work Alongside and Upskill Your Development Team
Pringle PCS can support an internal development or IT team without replacing it. Our developers can provide practical guidance, additional project capacity, architecture support, code review and assistance with difficult integration or database requirements.
We can also mentor employees so that they understand the solution and become more capable of supporting, maintaining and developing it internally. This protects organisational knowledge and strengthens the capability of your existing team.
Selected Bespoke Development Experience
Our solutions have supported commercial, manufacturing, health, education, laboratory, public-sector and wholesale operations.
Nissan, Renault & GXO
Warehouse integration, productivity, claims, scanning, assets and dealership returns
Pringle PCS has supported a long-running programme of operational system development connected to Nissan and Renault warehouse, distribution and dealership processes.
The work developed through several major phases, beginning with support for bringing operations together within a shared warehouse environment and creating systems to improve visibility, productivity and operational control.
Warehouse Consolidation
Support for the movement of Renault and Nissan operations into a shared warehouse environment, connecting information and helping the operation function as one controlled resource.
Operational Systems
Expansion into productivity and timesheet management, perpetual inventory, barcode scanning, asset returns, cage management and supporting HR-related systems.
Dealer Claims & Returns
Further development of dealership claims and returns processes, connecting barcode information and allowing dealerships to review associated cages and book parts for return.
Productivity and Workforce Management
A dedicated timesheet and productivity-management system was created to help monitor employee and warehouse activity. The solution supported management reporting and provided greater visibility of team performance over many years.
Claims and Dealer Returns
A claims platform was developed to allow dealers to submit return claims and progress them through the required Nissan and Renault process. This reduced manual administration and provided a clearer history of each claim.
Barcode, Cage and Asset Management
Barcode information was connected to the bespoke system so that cages, assets and returned parts could be associated with the correct dealership and operational process.
- Timesheet and productivity management
- Warehouse and regional visibility
- Dealer claims and parts returns
- Perpetual inventory management
- Barcode scanning
- Asset returns
- Cage management
- Supporting HR systems
Health & Safety Executive
Laboratory testing, asbestos schemes, performance assessment and reporting
The Health & Safety Executive required a system to assess the performance of laboratories involved in identifying asbestos within bulk materials.
The Asbestos In Materials Scheme, known as AIMS, is managed by HSE Testing and Monitoring. It supports laboratory registration, membership, sample distribution, participant results and performance assessment.
Secure Laboratory Portal
Pringle PCS developed a dedicated website that enables participating laboratories to sign in securely and record their test results through one controlled platform.
Performance Assessment and Reports
The system processes participant information and generates detailed performance reports for each laboratory. It also creates a complete summary report for each testing round, improving consistency and reducing manual data processing.
Expansion Across Multiple Schemes
The platform was subsequently expanded to support laboratories participating in additional schemes, including:
- AIMS
- AISS
- LACS
- RICE
- SEMS
- Secure participant access
- Laboratory result submission
- Individual and round-summary reporting
This allows laboratories to participate in several programmes through one platform, simplifying registration, testing, reporting and scheme administration.
NHS Placement Management
Pringle PCS created an online interface to help students from schools across South Yorkshire apply for work-experience placements within a teaching hospital.
Connected Approval Process
The platform connected students, schools and the NHS through one structured process. Schools could review and approve the student before the placement application progressed.
- Student applications
- School approval
- Placement administration
- Status and progress visibility
- Secure people-management information
Coca-Cola Production Support
Pringle PCS supported the use of production-line management software, helping the organisation improve how maintenance, system updates and production-line activity were recorded and reported.
Maintenance and Reporting
The work helped the team use the system more effectively when planning and recording maintenance runs, reviewing updates and producing operational information.
- Production-line management
- Maintenance-run visibility
- Update management
- Operational reporting
- Practical system guidance
BHI Order, Stock & CRM System
In 2014, BHI required greater control over internal orders and stock as the organisation continued to grow.
Pringle PCS developed a bespoke database solution that streamlined inventory and internal order management.
CRM and Online Ordering
The solution was expanded with an integrated CRM system to improve customer management and was connected to an online ordering platform, allowing customers to submit orders more efficiently.
- Internal order management
- Stock and inventory control
- Integrated CRM
- Customer information management
- Online customer ordering
Development Team Support
Pringle PCS can join an existing project when additional development capacity, integration knowledge or database expertise is required.
Build Internal Capability
We can work alongside internal employees, explaining the architecture and transferring practical knowledge so that the organisation is better equipped to manage future development.
- Developer mentoring
- Database guidance
- Architecture support
- Code and process review
- Internal knowledge transfer
Wider Public-Sector Experience
Pringle PCS has also delivered systems work for organisations including Doncaster Council. A more detailed case study can be added once the approved project description and publication wording have been confirmed.
Complete Ownership Without Artificial Lock-In
Our normal approach is for ownership of the bespoke project code to be clearly defined and transferred to the client in accordance with the written project agreement, subject to any separately licensed third-party components.
We do not want customers to remain with Pringle PCS because they have been deliberately prevented from accessing their own system. We want clients to continue working with us because they value the quality, support and long-term partnership we provide.
You use Pringle PCS because you want to—not because you have to.

Pringle PCS AI
Researching the Future. Building Practical AI. Teaching People to Use It.
Pringle PCS maintains a dedicated AI development and research team focused on understanding emerging technology, testing its practical value and turning the strongest ideas into useful business solutions.
Our research feeds directly into Gekko development, client consultancy, employee training and new AI-powered services. This helps our clients adopt AI with structure and purpose instead of purchasing tools without understanding how they should be used.

Continuous
AI Is Moving Quickly. Your Business Needs More Than the Latest Subscription.
Artificial intelligence is developing at an extraordinary speed. New models, assistants, automation tools and services appear constantly, but not every new feature is suitable for every organisation.
Pringle PCS does not begin by selling an AI subscription. We begin by understanding the business problem, the information available, the employees involved and the result the organisation needs to achieve.
Our AI development and research team evaluates emerging capabilities before they are introduced into commercial solutions. We examine whether the technology is useful, accurate, secure, affordable and capable of improving a real working process.
The strongest developments then filter into our Gekko products, bespoke systems, consultancy and training. This gives clients access to practical AI improvements without expecting them to research every new development themselves.
What the Pringle PCS AI Team Does
Our team connects research, software development, business consultancy and employee training within one practical service.
Emerging Technology Research
Review new language models, voice tools, visual recognition, automation methods and AI-assisted development techniques.

AI Should Strengthen Your Workforce, Not Remove Human Responsibility
The strongest AI solutions do not simply replace an employee. They remove repetitive work, provide faster access to information and help skilled people produce a more consistent professional result.
Employees remain responsible for judgement, customer relationships, approval, safeguarding, management decisions and the final quality of important work.
Our objective is to create AI assistants, not uncontrolled AI authorities . This approach increases productivity while also improving employee confidence and skill.
What AI Can Help With
- Summarising approved information
- Drafting emails and reports
- Transcribing voice messages
- Creating structured draft records
- Identifying missing information
- Suggesting clearer professional wording
- Searching approved business knowledge
- Classifying forms and requests
- Creating tasks and reminders
- Identifying patterns and trends
What People Continue to Control
- Final approval and business decisions
- Customer relationships
- Legal and regulatory judgement
- Safeguarding and confidential matters
- Financial authorisation
- Employee-management decisions
- Quality checks and professional review
- Exceptions and unusual circumstances
- Ethical responsibility
- Accountability for the final outcome

Commercial Experience Meets Academic Learning
Industry-Led AI Lectures at the University of Sheffield
Pringle PCS delivers industry-led lectures and practical technology demonstrations at the University of Sheffield, sharing commercial development experience with students and academic staff.
These sessions help learners understand how AI and software development operate outside a textbook environment—where data quality, user requirements, security, deadlines, budgets and business responsibility all affect the final solution.
Academic engagement also helps Pringle PCS remain connected to new ideas, future technical talent and emerging development approaches. This relationship between learning and real-world application strengthens our own research, training and product development.
- Real commercial AI examples
- Software-development architecture
- Responsible and ethical AI use
- Business automation and integration

Practical AI Training for Employees, Managers and Technical Teams
AI can only improve productivity when employees understand how to use it properly. Pringle PCS provides practical training that connects AI to real roles, tasks and business objectives.
Training can be delivered using demonstrations, workshops and approved business examples. We help employees understand both what AI can do and when human review remains essential.
AI Awareness
Understand AI terminology, opportunities, limitations and common business uses.
Effective Prompting

Responsible AI Is Part of the Solution, Not an Optional Extra
AI-generated information can be useful, but it can also be incomplete, inaccurate or inappropriate. Pringle PCS designs solutions around controlled information, clear user permissions and appropriate human approval.
Continuous Research. Controlled Development. Measurable Improvement.
AI development does not finish when the first system goes live. Models, providers, regulations and business needs continue to change.
Monitor New Developments
Review relevant new models, tools, providers and emerging commercial capabilities.
Test in Controlled Environments
Evaluate potential functions before placing them inside client-facing or operational systems.
Measure Business Value
Review whether the solution saves time, improves quality or supports stronger customer service.
Continue Improving
Refine prompts, workflows, permissions and training as requirements and technology evolve.
The Business Result
The purpose of AI is not to make your business appear modern. It is to create a measurable improvement in how people work and how customers are supported.
AI Development and Service Information
AI functions, providers, integrations, data access, model availability, usage costs and results will depend on the agreed project, licences, information quality and service configuration. AI output may contain errors and should be reviewed by an appropriately authorised person before it is used for important business, financial, legal, medical, safety or employment decisions.
Understand AI. Train Your People. Build the Right Solution.
