The Challenge
Toby's practice was profitable but capped by capacity. Manual document review, client communications, and report drafting consumed the senior team's time, leaving little room for the high-value strategic advisory work clients actually wanted.
How We Did It · The B.R.I.G.H.T. Framework
Audited the practice's most time-consuming recurring tasks. Identified 7 processes where AI could safely accelerate work, and 3 areas where it should never be used (a deliberate boundary).
90-day plan: practical, conservative AI integration. No replacing judgement, only accelerating preparation and drafting.
Claude + Notion + custom prompt templates for document summarisation, client comms drafting, and report-prep. Strict data-handling policy built in from day one.
Document review prep time cut by 60%. Client report drafts in minutes (was hours). Faster turnaround on every engagement.
Practical, no-jargon SOPs for the team. Every senior accountant trained on the new workflow. Full documentation of the boundaries (what AI does, what humans always do).
Reclaimed capacity is reinvested in strategic advisory, the highest-margin service. The practice grew advisory revenue without hiring.
