Utilimate

Award Winning Utility Connection Platform

Problem

Alconex was relying on paper job packs, Excel spreadsheets, and unstructured field data, which led to inefficiencies, missed information, and slow invoicing.

There was no real-time visibility into job status, making it difficult to take preventative action or plan effectively.

Solution

We built Utilimate, a work management app that gives planners a structured way to assign tasks and enables operatives to capture evidence and complete workflows on-site.

Designed with simplicity and offline use in mind, it streamlines planning, execution, and approval from the field to the office.

Results

Utilimate gave Alconex live job visibility, faster invoicing, and improved cash flow, while significantly reducing paperwork and admin time. Alconex now have a single source of truth for the status of their work.

Staff continue to praise the app for its speed, simplicity and reliability, and it went on to win the UK Digital Excellence Award 2025 for Stand Out App.

"We first engaged Throneware to design and develop a custom software platform tailored to the operational and strategic needs of Alconex. From the outset, they demonstrated a strong understanding of our industry and was proactive in learning the intricacies of our workflows, compliance requirements, and customer expectations.

Communication throughout the project was clear, consistent, and efficient. The team was highly responsive to feedback, open to change, and committed to delivering a high-spec solution. The collaborative approach and regular engagement with senior management ensured the development process ran smoothly from start to finish.

The result is a robust, purpose-built platform that not only supports our current operations but also positions us well for future growth. The software has already started to deliver measurable value across our business.

Collaborating with Throneware has exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to continuing our partnership."
