Configuration leveraged Crazy Egg features such as heatmaps, scrollmaps, snapshot reports, and session recordings to instrument clicks and scroll depth across landing pages and product pages.

Implementation scope emphasized page tagging, snapshot segmentation, and time-windowed recordings to enable campaign and UX investigation.
Governance for the Crazy Egg implementation included naming conventions for snapshots, tagging rules for pages under test, and coordination with site consent controls for behavioral data collection.

| AutoRek | Legacy | AutoRek | Financial Consolidation and Close | EPM | n/a | 2017 | 2017 |
In 2017 AJ Bell implemented AutoRek as a Financial Consolidation and Close initiative to establish a centralized reconciliations engine for AJ Bell Securities Ltd in Royal Tunbridge Wells. The project was led by the Senior Reconciliations Administrator who served as the primary administrative lead and requirements owner for the implementation. The deployment focused on operationalizing automated reconciliation workflows and end user support within the finance control environment.
AutoRek was configured and validated through an end user test system built from scratch, where existing reconciliations were loaded and executed to confirm functional behavior. Configuration work included building reconciliation templates, scheduling and automation of matching processes, and exception handling workflows consistent with Financial Consolidation and Close functional practices. The test environment was used to refine rules and user access before promotion to the live system to ensure production readiness.
Integrations were explicitly scoped with systems in use, including Figaro and Microsoft Office to support data inputs, exception analysis, and reporting exports. The implementation included a cutover process that migrated tested reconciliation sets into the live AutoRek instance for day to day use by the reconciliations team. Operational coverage centered on the reconciliations function within the securities team at the Royal Tunbridge Wells site.
Governance and rollout were structured around iterative requirements gathering, daily project team conference calls, and weekly progress reports into senior management. Training of the existing reconciliations team was delivered as part of the go live, and the Senior Reconciliations Administrator remained the designated point of contact for ongoing queries and operational support. The AutoRek implementation was validated in test to perform as expected prior to live migration.
