The flagship engagement
The Bullhorn Cleanup Sprint
A fixed-scope engagement that takes your Bullhorn from "nobody trusts it" to clean, documented, and actually used. Diagnose, clean, document, train — with a clear start and a clear finish.
Why a sprint, not "consulting"
Open-ended consulting on a messy system tends to produce meetings, decks, and a bigger mess. A sprint has a defined scope, a fixed fee, and a deliverable you can point at: a cleaned-up system, written standards, and a trained team. When it's done, it's done — and you can run it without me.
The work
Three phases, in order
The Systems Audit
Every sprint starts with a fixed-fee audit. I go through your Bullhorn environment and map what's actually there:
- Data health — duplicates, stale records, incomplete candidate and contact data
- Structure — how leads, contacts, companies, and jobs are actually organized, versus how they should be
- Fields, stages, and statuses — what exists, what's used, what's noise
- Workflows — where the recruiting and sales process breaks inside the system
- Usage — how each role actually works today, and where the system gets bypassed
- Reporting — why leadership can't get numbers they trust, and what has to change first
You get a written findings report with a prioritized fix list. If you stop there, you still have a map any competent admin could execute. Most clients continue into the sprint.
The Cleanup
The sprint executes the audit's priority list. Depending on what your system needs, that typically includes:
- Duplicate and inactive record review and cleanup
- Candidate and contact record cleanup and re-categorization
- Lead / contact / account structure repair
- Field, stage, and status rationalization — fewer, clearer, actually used
- Workflow repair so the system matches how your team really sells and recruits
- CRM/ATS usage standards: who enters what, when, and how
Documentation & handoff
Cleanup without adoption is temporary. The sprint ends with:
- Written usage standards in plain language — not a binder nobody opens
- Role-based walkthroughs for recruiters, salespeople, and admins
- A handoff session with whoever owns the system internally
What it costs
Fixed fee, known up front
The audit and the sprint are both fixed-fee, scoped to the size and state of your database on the cleanup call. No hourly meter, no open-ended retainers required. You'll know the full number before anything starts.
What I'll need from you
Three things
- Admin access to your Bullhorn environment
- About an hour a week from someone who knows how the team really works
- A leader willing to say "this is how we use the system now"
