Tanners Hatch hostel fit-out
- Who it's for
- A volunteer-run independent hostel in woodland on the National Trust's Polesden Lacey Estate in the Surrey Hills, getting ready to re-open.
- The problem
- Re-opening meant choosing and costing a long list of items for every room, and the people approving the spend needed clear, comparable figures: price with and without VAT, plus delivery, which often only shows at the basket.
- What we built
- A repeatable workflow. Someone adds a product link to the fit-out spreadsheet; our tooling reads the page, fills in the row, captures a dated screenshot with the real prices and delivery cost, and adds it to a catalogue document for approval. Dozens of items across the whole building, in one session. We did not build their website.
