Case studies

What a review actually looks like.

Each of these shows the problem, what we reviewed, what changed and what the business asked us to look at next.

Note for Energy Saving Guru: these are illustrative examples written for the launch of the site. Replace them with real customer stories — and only publish customer names, logos or testimonials where you hold written permission.

Hotel, central Scotland

Seven suppliers, one renewal calendar

The problem
A 40-bedroom hotel had electricity, gas, water, waste, broadband, phones and card processing spread across seven suppliers and five renewal dates.
What we reviewed
Twelve months of bills and every signed agreement, collected in one go from the office manager.
What changed
Energy contracts aligned to a single end date, waste collections resized, and terminal rental separated from processing so both could be reviewed properly.
Result
One renewal calendar, one point of contact, and a clear picture of what each service costs per month.
Added later
Business mobiles and a second site added the following year.

Illustrative example.

Bakery group, west of Scotland

The merchant statement nobody had read

The problem
Three shops taking most of their turnover by card, on a blended rate with separate terminal rental at each site.
What we reviewed
Three months of merchant statements and the terminal rental agreements.
What changed
Charges broken down transaction by transaction so the owner could see the real cost per sale before making any decision.
Result
A clear cost-per-transaction figure and a plan for the terminal contracts as they end.
Added later
Electricity and waste reviewed at the next renewal.

Illustrative example.

Logistics business, UK-wide

A missed notice period that won't happen again

The problem
A missed notice period had rolled one site onto out-of-contract rates before anyone noticed.
What we reviewed
Every supply across four sites, plus the mobile fleet.
What changed
All contract end dates and notice dates recorded in one place, with reminders set well before each deadline.
Result
No further missed notice periods, and renewals started months ahead rather than days.
Added later
Waste and broadband brought under the same review.
