What this says
Current to 11 Oct 26Marcus Bell asked Helen Varley to book the QBR; she accepted a Thursday 14:00 slot and asked for usage by trust, delivery queries and the renewal. The contract end was 30 Apr 2026.
Ask: Helen wants to know whether rising usage comes from the same few people or the wider team, whether delivery queries are visible to the account managers, and what happens next on the renewal.
Customer view: she is engaged and is bringing account managers, but she is probing both breadth of use and value.
Next: Marcus will break usage down by trust and by person and bring Priya for the renewal. The evidence does not show the outcome of the review or the renewal.

- Marcus Bell 11 Mar 2026 13:24Hi Helen, It's time to book your quarterly business review. I've pulled the numbers and usage is up on last quarter, which is nice to see after the quiet spell before Christmas. I'd like to cover: - usage and questions asked, by team - what the key-account managers are using the brain for most - anything you want changed before the contract end on 30 Apr 2026 Could you suggest a couple of slots for next week? An hour should do it. Thanks, Marcus
- Helen Varley 12 Mar 2026 13:42Marcus, Good news on usage. What's driving that? I'd like to know if it's the same few people or the wider team. Thursday afternoon works, say 14:00. For the agenda, three points from me: - usage by trust, please - delivery queries: are they showing up where the account managers can see them? - the renewal, and what happens next I'll take it to the account managers so some of them can join. Thanks, Helen
- Marcus Bell 13 Mar 2026 15:36Hi Helen, Thursday at 14:00 is booked, and I'll send the invite to you and the account managers you mention. On your first question, I'll break usage down by trust and by person so you can see whether it's a few people or the wider team. On delivery queries, I'll check what the brain is pulling in and show you on screen. I'll leave the renewal itself to Priya on the day, and I'll make sure she's there. Thanks, Marcus
