Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 31 July 2025 |
The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 July 2025. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The company is engaged in the provision of I.T. knowledge management consultancy. |
Turnover for the year to 31 July 2025 was £8,681,008 an increase of 4%.on the previous year. |
The company closely monitors the margins achieved on its sales, the margins have decreased during the year from 45% in the previous year to 34%.This has been a result of more expensive resources being used in the delivery of projects in the year. |
The result of the above is that Net Assets have increased by 9% to £5,722,306, and cash balances increased by 17% to £4,883,999.. |
At the year end the company is enjoying stable turnover which provides it with opportunities to fund future growth. The company has sufficient resources to implement its overall strategy and achieve its growth objectives for the next twelve months. |
The company has completed year 2 of our refreshed strategy. Our investment in the development of a fully integrated platform for Change Management and large-scale Training programmes is garnering significant interest and yielding positive returns, with agreed partnerships and customers being onboarded. |
The new strategic objectives will see Sysdoc pivot into a Software with a Service (SwaaS) business, building on the best of our legacy services, amplified by the power of AI. |
Two notable platform developments are: |
Serendata - Transformation Intelligence Platform, comprising 4 modules: |
· Insight |
· ChangePlan |
· Pulse |
· Business Benefits - Return on Investment Tracker |
SysdocAI - AI-Powered Process Optimisation:· Process transformation underpinned by AI.. |
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Key business risks remain the operation in a fast moving and technically innovative business environment. The company monitors the cost of its operations on a monthly basis. The company's operations expose it to a variety of financial risks that include the effects of geopolitics, changes in credit risk and liquidity risk. |
Given the size of the company, the directors have not delegated the responsibility of monitoring financial risk management to a sub-committee of the board. The company carries out appropriate credit checks on potential customers before sales are made and actively manages it's cash flow to ensure that funds are available to maintain operations. The company is not exposed to significant foreign currency risks. |

Strategic Report |

The company does not enter into any formally designated hedging arrangements. |

DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT |
The company has chosen in accordance with Companies Act 2006, s. 414C(11) to set out in the company's strategic report information required by Schedule 7 of the Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 to be contained in the directors' report.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES |
| The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
| Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: |
| - | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
| - | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
| - | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
| The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
| So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |
| Each director who held office at the date of approval of this report confirms that so far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information needed by the company’s auditor in connection with preparing their report of which the company's auditor is unaware and •the director has taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a director in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditor is aware of that information. |

Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
| In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
| The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. |
Turnover |
Revenue is the amount derived from ordinary activities and is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the provision of services Revenue is stated net of VAT. |

the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; |
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company; and |
specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities., |
Intangible assets |
| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. |
| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful |
| life. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
Foreign currencies |
| Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
Employee benefits |
| Short-term employee benefits are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. |
| The obligations for contributions to defined contribution scheme are recognised as an expense in the period they are incurred. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund. |
Trade and other debtors |
Trade and other debtors that are receivable within one year and do not constitute a financing transaction are recorded at the undiscounted amount expected to be received, net of impairment. Those that are receivable after more than one year or that constitute a financing transaction are recorded initially at fair value less transaction costs and subsequently at amortised cost, net of impairment. |
Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. |
Trade and other creditors |
Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost. |
3. | TURNOVER |
The turnover and profit before taxation are attributable to the one principal activity of the company. |
