Rolling into the Future with Fergus

Rolling Renewables is a family-run business based in the heart of Worcestershire, specialising in renewable energy solutions. They offer a range of services including solar PV installation, battery storage systems, and EV charge points. As experts in their field, Rolling Renewables has built a reputation for providing sustainable energy solutions with a personal touch. Corey Revell, the Operations Manager, oversees the day-to-day operations of their growing team of installers. However, as the business expanded, managing multiple jobs and installers became increasingly challenging.

Life before Fergus

Before adopting Fergus, Corey and his team managed their business the old-fashioned way—using pen and paper. While this method worked in the early days, it soon became clear that they needed a more efficient system. Rolling Renewables experimented with various software solutions, but none seemed to address the specific challenges they were facing.

Managing multiple installers on the road, keeping track of job documentation, and ensuring job profitability were all constant headaches. It wasn’t uncommon for team members to waste valuable time searching for important job details, or for Corey to spend hours going through job notes to ensure everything was in order. Without a reliable system, even small administrative tasks started to eat away at their time, preventing them from focusing on growing their business.

"Documentation was a big issue," Corey recalls. "When you’ve got multiple installers, keeping track of what’s happening on the road, managing paperwork, and ensuring jobs remain profitable—it was overwhelming at times."

Game changing software

Everything changed for Rolling Renewables two years ago when they adopted Fergus Software. Fergus provided the structure and support they needed to overcome their operational challenges. The transition was seamless, and the results have been transformative.

"The guys have everything they need," says Corey. Using the Fergus Go mobile app, installers can access all necessary documents and information right from their phones. "When they get to the site, they just access the phone, they can go through all the docs—they’ve got everything they need."

The ability to communicate in real-time has been a game-changer for Rolling Renewables. With Fergus Go, the team can receive live updates, share job progress, and access important documents from anywhere. No more scrambling for missing paperwork or miscommunication between the office and installers. Fergus’ scheduling feature allows Corey to allocate jobs effortlessly, ensuring the right installer is in the right place at the right time.

"It’s a brilliant piece of software," Corey adds. "It’s completely revolutionised the way we work, basically."

Beyond communication, Fergus has given Corey and his team a complete overview of their operations. Through the Fergus platform, they can easily view past and current jobs, track job progress in real-time, and keep a close eye on job profitability. This overview means that nothing slips through the cracks, and they’re able to make informed decisions that benefit both the team and the business.

By eliminating inefficiencies, Fergus has allowed Rolling Renewables to grow with confidence. Corey and his team can now focus on what they do best—delivering high-quality renewable energy solutions to their customers—without being bogged down by administrative tasks.

For any installer or trades business struggling with managing jobs, team communication, or profitability, Rolling Renewables’ story is proof that Fergus can help you get back on track. The platform has allowed Corey and his team to streamline their operations and take their business to new heights. "It’s completely revolutionised the way we work," Corey concludes, highlighting the immense value Fergus has brought to his business.
