On the 14th January, Skore ran its first event of 2020 in London. Hosted by Cloudreach, the Cloud Migration experts, the Skrum community met to share ideas, make connections and most importantly listen to inspiring speakers from the Digital Transformation sector.
Craig Willis got the event underway with a preview of Skrum events planned for this year. The success of Skrum events means bigger and better things are in the pipeline for 2020. More events, more advanced training options and additional opportunities for the community to get involved in the evolution of Skrum and the Skore software product.
The evening kicked off with Dave Chapman, Head of Customer Transformations from Cloudreach. Dave explored the 6 major trends in Cloud Migration. He illustrated to the community the considerations needed when embarking on an Enterprise Cloud Transformation.
Sam Leitch, Adroit Associates was our second speaker. Sam led the group through the £54 million restructure at Hull College. Elaborating on their process mapping methodology Sam was able to demonstrate the true benefits of thorough analysis and how Hull was able to reduce their staffing costs by £7 million, rebrand, restructure and improve corporate culture.
Our final speakers were Laura Copas and Steve Sewell from Get Real Change. Their fascinating talk covered the performance paradox and how performance levels alter in relation to the change we experience. Alongside a fabulous example given by Steve about how we slowly accept and embrace change, they expanded on Get Real Change’s success in the public sector in enabling change and transformation.
The evening ended with a trip to the local pub and an opportunity for further networking and learning. Our biggest event so far and the start of things to come in 2020.

At the end of 2019 we’d like to take some time to review what has been a year of great positive change at Skore. Skore Software has grown from strength to strength and we are excited for 2020. Here is a general round up of all the highlights.
Our Product.
The Skore platform has gone through a number of significant changes over the last year launching two new modules for the platform – Robotic Assess and Lean Assess. Making the most of the data captured from process discovery, these innovative modules enable users to instantly gain insights from their process maps and create robust business cases. Skore also introduced a number of features such as Custom Fields giving users the ability to capture any type of extra information (i.e Risks, Requirements, Costs etc) needed in a process map resulting in an enhanced experience and greater versatility of the platform. Behind the scenes Skore has also been working hard to assure a first class quality software product. The platform migrated to AWS (Amazon Web Services), initiated Automated Release Cycles to facilitate quick releases and fix bugs rapidly. Testing, Automation and Migration has meant a more powerful and secure Skore platform. This hard work will provide solid foundations for Skore, ready to build upon and offer new exciting features in 2020.
Our Company
In response to demand Skore’s workforce has continued to expand rapidly. In February we welcomed Roger Taylor, Business Advisor, as our Non Executive Director. Anna Roebuck joined us in June as our Marketing Manager quickly followed by Toby Reed, our new Dev Ops Engineer, Ruben Robles in September as our Back End Developer and finally Angus Sim, Strategic Business Development in December. Our newly expanded Sales and Marketing team and Technical team is just one symbol of the success Skore has experienced in 2019 and sets us up to embrace 2020 and our new objectives with enthusiasm and the necessary resources!
Our Business
Skore’s software platform has given us the opportunity to develop new partnerships (such as Lawrence & Wedlock) and consolidate existing successful ones (such as Marjolo). In fact our partners continue to grow solidly and will continue to form a vital part of our business model in 2020. Our increased sales have meant more workspaces being sold in a wide range of industries including Legal, It Services, Insurance and Construction. Skore’s strategic offering enables the platform to work with customers and partners from a wide range of different industries but who all strive to achieve a cutting edge approach to digital transformation.
Closer to home our training and certification programme has launched with great success. Our first Skore associates and practitioners are now certified and ready to take on the world of Digital Transformation. Skore has already run numerous training sessions and due to demand this looks set to become a monthly occurrence in 2020.
The Year Ahead
2020 will bring fresh changes and challenges to the Skore team. Exciting new product developments plus collaborations with Partners are planned to keep Skore at the leading edge of Digital Transformation. The Skore team looks set to grow and Skore will be relaunching the Skrum community as part of their push to empower people to deliver successful, harmonious and healing process improvement in their organisations.
All that is left to do is to wish you all a wonderful Christmas season. We look forward to working with all our partners and customers in 2020.

Skore’s Skrum community is growing and learning following another great evening event held in London with the Skore team and Skrum attendees.
On the 12th November the Skore team held it’s bi-monthly Skrum event at Tower 42, London. Hosted by Kofax – the Intelligent Automation Solutions provider, the Skrum community had the opportunity to meet other like minded Digital Transformation practitioners and listen to some great speakers.
First we had the chance to hear from Nick Wadsley, Senior Sales Executive from Kofax, who told us about the needs of organisations working within the Intelligent Automation sector. Next he outlined how companies must break through the ‘digital ceiling’ and truly focus on business outcomes by using end to end platforms to scale Intelligent Automation.
Our second speaker, Nicolle Anderson, Business Development Director was truly inspirational. A founding member of Business Clan, she told us about the success Business Clan have had building a thriving business around the concept of flexible working for all. Her presentation gave all of us some food for thought and sparked off lively discussion around the table.
Finally, to finish the evening with a bang, was Mark Jarvis, Director at Hunmoco Consultancy. Mark discussed the importance of conflict resolution in workshops. We discovered the importance of the three habits of Reconciliation and learnt how Skore itself can be used to work on conflict in an organisation.
With this revelation, our evening of discovery was complete. It was time for a swift round or two at the pub and the chance to make new friends and learn more. As one of our participants put it: “What a great feeling to be in the same room as a group of like minded people with such a positive attitude!”
We look forward to seeing you all again soon at a Skrum event.
Skore, along with Duena Blomstrom, Co Founder and CEO of People Not Tech, were honoured to be invited on to Cloudbusting, an insightful podcast from Cloudreach, hosted by Jeremy King and Dave Chapman. Jeremy and Dave are Thought Leaders in Cloud Computing. Together, they explore what it means for organisations and their business models when they move to the cloud. Their approach is to view cloud migration from a holistic point of view, including the impact on employees and customers.
Skore’s Chris Green, Partner Director and Craig Willis, Customer Success Director joined them last month. They discussed the importance of a human focused approach to process mapping and outlined the impact of Robotic Process Automation.
Why Skore?
Process mapping is an essential part of any change or transformation and cloud migration is no different. Process discovery allows organisations to re-evaluate their core processes and ensure they are the right ways of working for the modern world. This is an essential step in any cloud migration process.
