The Problem
Sound familiar?
Final_V12_UseThisOne(2).xlsx
The spreadsheet that runs everything — until someone sorts the wrong column and suddenly Dave's salary is attached to the wrong department. Instant chaos.
Copy. Paste. Repeat.
Time returns, attendance records, contact lists — manually copied between sheets every week because that's just how it's always been done. There's another way.
40MB and climbing.
That tidy little project tracker is now a monster that freezes when you hit filter. It was never a database. It was never meant to be.
There's a smarter way. It doesn't require a master's degree.
(Oisín has one anyway. But that's beside the point.)
