CRM Implementation and Development

Design, configure and optimise CRM platforms that improve visibility, accountability and commercial performance.

A CRM system should do more than store contact details.

When implemented correctly, it becomes the central engine for sales management, customer visibility and revenue forecasting. When implemented poorly, it becomes an underused, inaccurate database that teams avoid.

Avrion delivers CRM implementation and development services that match technology with real business processes, ensuring adoption, clarity and long term scalability is viable

Why CRM implementations often fail

Many CRM projects struggle because:

Sales processes are not clearly defined before deployment
Overconfiguration creates complexity
User adoption is not prioritised
Reporting requirements are unclear
Data is unreliable
Integration with finance and marketing is overlooked

CRM should support how your teams sell, not force users into unnatural workflows.

A well-executed CRM project enables you to:

Define and enforce structured sales stages
Improve forecast accuracy
Centralise customer and account visibility
Reduce reliance on spreadsheets
Connect sales, marketing and finance data
Strengthen performance management
Improve data accuracy

The objective is commercial clarity, not technical complexity.

Custom modules
Bespoke fields and workflows

CRM integration and systems unification

CRM rarely operates alone.

We ensure it works with:

Finance and ERP systems
Marketing automation platforms

Creating a connected commercial infrastructure.

Built for scalability

CRM must support growth.

We design implementations that are:

Secure and permission-controlled

What do our customers say?

“Avrion is an agile, approachable, friendly company. They are easy to deal with and deliver on what they set out to achieve.”

Tom Crowther – Belvoir

“Avrion’s AI and automation solution transformed our operations. What used to take three full-time staff days to process now happens automatically - accurately, consistently, and at scale. We’ve reclaimed time, reduced errors, and empowered our team to focus on higher-value work. It’s been transformative.”

COO at a leading UK waste management company

“Connolly's Red Mills have been working with Avrion since 2017 with our Maximizer implementation and have found them to be a great company to deal with, projects completed in a timely manner to a high standard.”

David Dewberry – Connolly’s Red Mills

“Working with Avrion has been amazing from start to finish. We use Maximizer as a main system, however we required a bespoke quote tool building for our sales team. From start to finish, the integration of the software and support has been nothing short of phenomenal. Their entire team are very knowledgeable, efficient and nothing is ever too much. We look forward to using Avrion moving forward and continuing a great business relationship.”

Luke Hogg – Knoxford Fabrications

“Integrating over 30 acquisitions, meant harmonising over 60 customer databases. Impressive, but of little use if the data is unstructured. Maximizer meant structured data, yes it requires focus, but the output is efficient to say the least; the new improved pipeline made us twice as effective, cross selling across the 5 business units - closure went up 4-fold. Integrating this with front line operational calls gave us a holistic view, reducing hundreds of days spent on internal calls, joining up the dots for our customers. Opportunities grew by over 20% with straightforward data polishing. The icing on the cake was with GDPR, good process with opt-outs and customer choice on contact options. When you feed this into the business it allows us to be focussed on the day-to-day operation, the back-end processes of store, scan and shred just become slicker – our focus with customers substantially better. Hundreds of hours freed up for improvements on invoicing, value added services, the day to day delivery with document management. Our project involved coupling existing platforms with new CRM technologies, training and a complex project roll-out. Avrion managed the transition without fuss or any ‘catch-you’ extra fees – a job well done.”

David English – Restore plc

“After a feasibility study designed to ascertain which CRM to integrate into our business, I found that Avrion put together the best end scenario and product, Maximizer, to take our business forward. The team at Avrion showed their diligence and knowledge, which was a clear deciding factor in instigating our partnership. We look forward to strengthening our relationship going forward, as CRM evolution never stops! We can now see in real time how all of our opportunities are progressing. We also have automated reports in our Dashboard module showing the business sales performance and pipeline, which allows us to focus on each individual opportunity without any being left unnurtured. Avrion has now linked our Maximizer with Mailchimp to allow for focused marketing campaigns based on the data we add to the Address Book. We now have a clear sales process that can be tracked with clear ‘what’s next’ actions to implement.”

Craig Sansom – Prestige

“We first came across Maximizer Sales Leader Edition (SLE) when looking for a CRM system with quoting functionality to replace an aged manual system based mainly on Excel! From development to implementation, each stage was found easy to transact and made easy to understand with the support offered found to be exceptional. Our main area of focus was to improve systems to reduce stress on resource with minimal impact on the team – this was achieved with great success & the system welcomed.”

Liane Atherton – AAF Air Filters

“We found the team at Avrion really understood our needs. It felt like they’d seen it all before, and that gave us confidence from day one. With Maximizer CRM, what it really does is allow us to track that from start to result stage… it’s helped change the mentality of our business.”

Chris Harrison – Heidelberg Materials Contracting

“We found Avrion very professional, yet friendly and fun to do business with. They really gained our trust.”

Chris Howard – BearingNet

“We were looking for best service provider for our CRM system and we came across with Avrion in 2016 and since then we have never turned back in terms of CRM system. This was our best step to move with Avrion as they understood our requirement quickly with excellent solutions and also within our budget. Working with Avrion is wonderful experience; we never need to approach them for any issues as they are always one step ahead by taking regular follow-ups. They are quick and punctual in terms of completing project. We have undertaken many projects so far and are more than happy to say that their solution is up to the mark. Avrion's people are the greatest asset of the company. I really recommend Avrion not only CRM system but for many other IT solutions as well.”
