The PAVR Method

From chore to running system in about eight weeks.

Pinpoint, Automate, Validate, Run. Each phase has a clear output, so you only commit to the next step once the last one has proved its value.

  1. Pinpoint

    Weeks 1 to 2

    Map your top suppliers, spend data and the gaps in your Scope 3 picture.

  2. Automate

    Weeks 2 to 6

    The Supplier Baseline Generator fills the gaps from invoices, spend and public filings.

  3. Validate

    Weeks 6 to 8

    Check estimates against supplier disclosures and what your auditors expect.

  4. Run

    Ongoing

    Carbon KPIs live in procurement workflows and refresh every month.

Outcome

A defensible supplier baseline in weeks, and carbon data that shapes buying decisions.

The first step · 2 weeks

Start with a two-week Pinpoint Sprint.

A fixed-fee, two-week sprint that finds the chore worth automating and proves whether AI can take it off your plate. If you go ahead with the build, the fee is credited in full.

  • Fixed fee, agreed up front
  • Credited in full against the build
  • Yours to keep, even if you stop there
Ask about a Pinpoint Sprint

You leave with

  • A map of the process and where the time and money go
  • A data audit: what you have, what is missing, what it would take
  • The one KPI we will be measured against, with today’s baseline
  • A business case with expected payback, and a clear go or no-go

Working with PAVRtech

In their words.

What founders and business leaders say about working with us, from first conversations to automation we have built for them.

  • We started speaking with PAVRtech earlier this year when looking for a solution to accelerate our bid and tender writing process. From the outset, Payal and Viral were brilliant at understanding and responding to our requirements, quickly developing well-thought-through concepts that helped us explore the possibilities and make informed decisions about the right way forward. Both came across hugely personable and technically brilliant, an absolute pleasure to work with. They genuinely feel like an extension of our team, with our interests at heart and a real commitment to finding the right solution for us.

  • As a founder, I knew AI could help but didn't know where to start. Payal took me through the basics in plain English, then automated our CRM process for us. Breaking down the big scary AI word to smaller chunks of automating process has saved me 2 to 4 hours per week on my CRM process.

Frequently asked questions

See all FAQs

What size of business do you work with?

Midsize businesses, which for us means £5m to £500m in revenue, or 25 to 8,000 employees, with real operational data but no in-house AI team. We started in climate, logistics and construction.

Where do you work?

We are based in the UK and work with clients across the UK and Europe. We are also open to projects in the US.

How do we get started?

With a two-week Pinpoint Sprint. It is a fixed fee, and you leave with a process map, a data audit, a KPI baseline and a business case with a clear go or no-go. If you go ahead with the build, the sprint fee is credited in full.

How long does a project take?

The PAVR Method runs about eight weeks from Pinpoint to Validate: two weeks to find the right problem, four to build, two to prove it on live work. Run is ongoing, on a monthly basis.

Who actually does the work?

Every project pairs an industry expert with engineers who have built AI at companies like Google, Snapchat and Monzo. The same people scope it, build it and stay for the results.

What happens to our data?

Your data stays yours. We sign an NDA before we see anything and agree up front where the data lives and who can access it. Details are in our Trust Centre.

What does it cost?

Projects are scoped for midsize budgets and priced as a fixed fee per phase, so you only commit to the next step once the previous one has proved its value. Most clients start with a fixed-fee Pinpoint Sprint, credited in full against the build. We share a quote after the first call.
