More time
for what matters.

Management and technology/AI advisory improving your operations in weeks, not months. We identify the bottlenecks in your business and implement pragmatic solutions to solve them quickly.

What we do, concretely.

Six things we deliver for expertise-led firms, each ending with something that runs in your business.

  • Operational & technology audit

    Structured interviews, process walkthroughs and a review of every tool you pay for, vertical by vertical.

    A prioritised issue list, an impact/effort matrix and a 12-month roadmap.

  • ERP & business software

    Selection, implementation, data migration and day-to-day management of your ERP and core systems, with automations built on top.

    One system of record that fits how you work, migrated cleanly and kept running.

  • Process automation

    We automate the recurring manual work: reporting, reconciliations, onboarding, document flows, client follow-ups.

    Working workflows in production, documented and owned by you.

  • AI integration

    Document intelligence, drafting assistants and KYC/AML workflows embedded where the work actually happens.

    Models in production, measured against a clear before/after baseline.

  • Custom internal tools

    Small, sharp software for the gaps your vendors don't cover: cockpits, portals, calculators, trackers.

    Source code, hosting and data in your name.

  • External CTO

    A senior technology lead on your side for roadmap, budget, vendors, security and the team.

    Regular steering sessions plus on-call support when decisions can't wait.

From manual processes
to a scalable engine

We identify the bottlenecks in expertise-led firms and implement technology-driven solutions to remove them.

How we work, end to end.

Three movements, one loop. Each engagement runs as a cycle, not a line. Last quarter's evidence shapes next quarter's roadmap.

With whom we work.

Fermi works with Swiss SMEs in regulated, expertise-led and operations-heavy sectors: firms where the right systems and processes free up time for the work that matters.

The pain

Since FinIA, independent managers carry FINMA-level compliance with small teams. Portfolio data sits at several custodian banks, client reports are assembled by hand, and onboarding files are chased by email.

Our solutions

Custodian data consolidated in one place, client reports generated automatically, a digital onboarding and KYC file, and an assistant that prepares each client meeting from the CRM and the portfolio.

The pain

Clients send receipts and statements in every format. Hours go into keying entries, chasing missing documents and rebuilding the same closing files, and billable time goes unrecorded.

Our solutions

Automated document intake and pre-accounting, a client portal for collecting documents, closing checklists, time tracking linked to billing, and a clean link between your accounting software, document store and portal.

The pain

Associates spend hours finding the right precedent and rebuilding standard documents. Time entries are reconstructed at month-end from memory and calendars.

Our solutions

AI search and first drafts on your own documents, kept inside your environment. Template and clause libraries, contract review checklists, and time capture that feeds billing directly.

The pain

Confirmations, invoices, letters of credit and shipping documents are handled by hand between the trading system, email and spreadsheets. Every new counterparty means another KYC file built from scratch.

Our solutions

Automated trade confirmations and document flows, a counterparty onboarding and KYC workflow, and position and P&L reporting fed directly from your trading system and ERP.

The pain

Small desks with data spread across brokers, market data terminals and spreadsheets. Each morning someone rebuilds positions, P&L and risk by hand, and analysts lose hours gathering information.

Our solutions

Data pipelines and dashboards for positions, P&L and risk, AI assistants that pull research, news and market data for the desk, and daily and compliance reports produced automatically.

The pain

Plant operators and utilities run on a mix of ERP, SCADA, maintenance tools and Excel. Production and availability reports for owners and partners are compiled by hand, technical documentation is hard to search, and many ERP platforms face end-of-support migrations.

Our solutions

Maintenance planning and work orders connected to your ERP, automated production and availability reporting for owners, partners and regulators, AI search across technical documentation, and ERP migration and integration.

The pain

Orders, stock, production and quality live in an ageing ERP patched with spreadsheets. Planning depends on a few people who know the workarounds, and traceability for audits and certifications takes days to assemble.

Our solutions

ERP selection, migration and rollout, production planning and stock visibility, automated traceability and quality records for audits and certifications, and links between ERP, shop floor and customer portals.

The pain

Orders arrive by email, PDF and phone and are keyed into the ERP by hand. Stock levels, customer prices and delivery status differ between systems, and margins are only visible at month-end.

Our solutions

ERP selection, migration and rollout, automated order intake from email and PDF, a B2B ordering portal or EDI link, stock and price data kept in sync, and margin reporting by customer and product.

Advisory powered by our own platform and AI.

Traditional advisory hits a human bottleneck: slow, costly and often far from day-to-day reality. With our own platform and AI, we deliver evidence-based recommendations and working solutions in weeks, not months.

A short call. Usually enough to know whether a diagnostic is the right next step.
