As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Proposal dated 5 Aug 2024 for a Starter B-Glass: £20k first-year subscription plus £6,000 implementation, £26k total Year 1. It states no availability or P1 response figures and is unsigned, so it is an open proposal, not a contract.
What it is: a sales proposal from Tom Ashdown, Account Executive, to Marsden Vale Recruitment. It offers the Starter tier with 15 users (soft limit) and up to 4 connectors (hard limit) over CRM, accounting system, email and call recordings.
Commits: nothing binding. The investment table gives "Starter subscription (first year)" at £20k and "Implementation (4 weeks)" at £6,000, with "Live by: September 2024" as the target.
Unusual: the scope is three two-week phases, discovery, build and launch, which is six weeks in all, against the four-week implementation priced. No discount is stated.
Not settled: the stored status is final, but the text shows a proposal that still asks to "Sign the order form and Master Service Agreement". The evidence does not show whether it was signed, and the executed order form would override this document on price and terms. No service levels, payment terms or renewal date are stated.

Body
Marsden Vale Recruitment, B-Glass Proposal
Date: 5 Aug 2024
Executive Summary
Marsden Vale Recruitment spends significant time reconciling client accounts, open roles and invoices across multiple systems. B-Glass will unify this data and allow the team to answer key questions instantly: which clients are active, which roles are live, and what revenue is at risk.
Current Challenges
- Recruitment records held in CRM, invoices in accounting system, separate spreadsheets for role management
- Sales team manually cross-references systems to build client views
- Decisions delayed whilst team members search multiple systems
- No single source of truth for live roles and client status
Proposed Solution
B-Glass is an AI-queryable layer over Marsden Vale's data, deployed inside the customer's own Snowflake account. The brain can answer natural language questions about clients, roles, invoices and outcomes in seconds.
Tier: Starter Users: 15 (soft limit) Connectors: up to 4 (hard limit) Data Sources: CRM, accounting system, email, call recordings
Scope
This proposal covers:
