// The services
Five named services, plus the bespoke work in between.
Each line stands on its own. Stitch them together where the work spans disciplines — one partner, one point of contact, whichever route you take.
Cut the subscription bill.
Overlapping SaaS tools and CRM modules you barely use. We audit your software spend and replace what matters with apps built for you — one supported service, not a stack of bills.
Explore ConsolidateNetworks that just work.
Network design, FTTP coordination, WiFi rollouts. Single sites or multi-property portfolios — built, tested, supported.
Explore NetworkingRooms that perform.
Audio-visual installs for offices, boardrooms, event spaces and venues. Specced, installed, integrated with the rest of your tech.
Explore AVStudios, broadcast-ready.
Podcast and streaming setups — audio chain, acoustic treatment, multi-camera, and the bits behind the wall nobody else gets right.
Explore PodcastApps, managed.
Ongoing managed support and user administration for systems already running — ticketing, provisioning, escalations. We own the queue.
Explore SupportThe in-between work.
Bespoke technical work that doesn't fit the named services. AI & automation, system integration, technical governance, audits.
Explore ATFI Consulting// What spans every service
Multi-disciplinary by design.
Hardware, software, and consulting — under one roof so the in-between work doesn't get dropped between vendors.
The physical layer
Networks, FTTP, WiFi, AV installs, podcast studios, structured cabling. We've been on roofs and in lofts.
Working applications
Custom apps, dashboards, CRM replacements, ticketing platforms, integrations. Shipped and maintained — not prototypes parked on a server.
Strategy & implementation
Technical architecture, AI agents, multi-vendor coordination, governance and audits. The thinking that turns into shipped work.
// AI Agents & Implementation
Real AI work. Not pilot theatre.
We build and ship AI agents that actually run in production — not prompt-engineering demos that go nowhere. Document intelligence, email triage, workflow automation, custom agents that plug into the tools your team already uses.
Pull structure out of anything.
Extract structured data from contracts, invoices, PDFs and forms — at scale, with the audit trail your compliance team needs.
Multi-step automations.
Agents that read your inbox, update your CRM, generate documents and post to Slack — with humans in the loop where it matters.
Bespoke, not bolted-on.
Agents built on Claude, GPT-4o, or open models. Integrated with your data, secured to your standards, supported by us.
Less glamorous, more revenue.
n8n, Power Automate, Zapier — used where they fit, replaced with bespoke code where they don't.
// Selected work
Real engagements, shipped.
A sample across sectors and service lines. We ship working things and stay involved — these are still running.
A 9,000-user support operation, consolidated.
Inherited helpdesk with no ticketing and fragmented user management. We built a custom ticketing app, user-provisioning workflow, and a single source of truth — the team finally on top of its queue.
Power Platform governance for DEFRA.
Designed a governance framework for citizen-developed apps inside a 4,000-person organisation. Tenancy strategy, environment hierarchy, security model, review process — adopted as the standard.
HubSpot ↔ MRPeasy, integrated.
Stitched a manufacturer's CRM to its manufacturing/ERP layer so commercial and ops finally saw the same numbers. Bespoke middleware, error handling, and a small dashboard for the team to watch the pipe.
Connectivity across a property portfolio.
FTTP coordination, ISP procurement, and WiFi rollout across a multi-site housing portfolio. End-to-end — from Openreach paperwork to commissioning the kit on site.
// Sectors we know
Strongest where the operations are.
Not every consultancy fits every sector. Here's where ATFI's mix of hardware, software, and consulting actually compounds.
Housing & Property
Multi-site connectivity, user management, custom property-ops software, AV for shared spaces.
Public Sector
Power Platform governance, citizen-developer enablement, integration with legacy systems, compliance-led delivery.
SME Operations
Growing teams outgrowing off-the-shelf tools. CRM replacement, automation, ticketing, IT support.
Studios & Content
Podcast studios, AV installs, streaming infrastructure, network kit that handles the bandwidth.
// Why ATFI
One partner, not a chain of vendors.
Single point of contact
You call one person, not a project office. Faster decisions, less admin, no internal blame-passing.
End-to-end delivery
Audit, design, deliver, support. We don't write strategies and walk away — we ship working things and stay involved.
Strategic and hands-on
Architecture and governance experience paired with practical engineering. As comfortable in boardrooms as on roofs.
Bristol-based, UK-wide
South West and South East coverage. Bristol, Bath, Wiltshire, Berkshire, Surrey, Oxon, London. Happy to travel further for the right work.
Long-term partner
We monitor, support, and extend what we build. A relationship that compounds value as your operations grow.
Multi-disciplinary on purpose
Most consultancies cover hardware, software, or consulting. ATFI covers all three — which is where most of the interesting and inconvenient work lives.
// Common questions
Frequently asked.
Most consultancies cover one of hardware, software, or consulting — rarely all three. ATFI is built around the in-between work that's hard to assign to any one supplier: AI automation that needs to integrate with a custom internal tool, software that needs the network designed for it, multi-site IT that needs both. We complement an existing supplier on a defined project, or take on the whole technical remit.
Both. We do the architecture and strategy and we ship working things — software deployed and maintained, networks installed and tested, AI tooling integrated and supported. We've been on roofs and in lofts as well as in boardrooms. Practical engineering, not just slide decks.
Engagements range from a single-site network upgrade or a focused automation build, through to multi-month software-and-infrastructure programmes. We work to a day rate for short pieces of work, project-based for defined scopes, and on a retainer for long-term technical-partner relationships. We always start with a free 30-minute call and a clear written proposal — no obligation. Email [email protected] for a tailored quote.
Yes. Each service line operates independently. You can engage just Networking, just Consolidate, just Support — or stitch them together where the work spans disciplines. The bundle is the option, not the requirement.
ATFI is Bristol-based and delivers across the UK — particularly the South West (Bristol, Bath, Wiltshire, Somerset, Devon) and the South East (Berkshire, Surrey, Hampshire, Oxfordshire, London). We're happy to travel further for the right engagement.
