GEERD

For schools and universities that choose their students.

“Has he paid?”

The answer is in the record, not in a meeting. One record, from admissions to alumni, so your institution’s teams search less and support more. Three platforms, set up with you.

What we hear

The mess is not something you see. It is something you hear.

Most institutions do not lack tools.

What they lack is one place where information stays consistent.

Often heard.
01

“Has he paid?”

“Hold on… let me check.”

02

“Normally, they re-enrol.”

The trouble often starts with “normally”.

03

FINAL_V3_GOOD_VERSION_2.xlsx

Somewhere, this file exists.

Every school has one.
04

“Can you send me his grade again?”

One piece of information. Several versions.

05

“Where is my transcript?”

The same question at the front desk, a hundred times a week.

06

“How many are at risk of dropping out?”

“We would have to ask the teachers.”

07

“Who followed up with this applicant?”

The answer is in someone’s phone.

08

“Do we have contact details for the 2019 alumni?”

The 2019 addresses no longer work.

The real problem

None of your tools are at fault.

The mess is between them.

Each tool does its job properly.

But when applicants, payments, pupils and students, grades, documents and conversations sit in different systems, your teams are the ones bridging it.

Less mess.
More clarity.

Each team sees what it needs, where it works.

See how GEERD works

What it costs

This mess has a price. Nobody has ever worked it out.

It does not show up in a budget. It shows up in your enrolment numbers, in your working days, and in what families say about you.

Elsewhere, this mess has already been measured. The figures alongside come from published institutions and studies: they give an order of magnitude, they promise nothing about your results.

The empty seat

“How many admitted students never came back to us last year?”

You do not know. Multiply that number by your tuition: that is what a campaign followed from memory costs.

Measured elsewhere

10–44%

of admitted applicants enrol at no institution at all the following autumn.

BCCAT, “Exploring Summer Melt for BC Post-Secondary Institutions”, 2024 (a review of three US school districts and one national longitudinal survey)US data, the school-to-higher-education transition. Counts only those who enrol nowhere: a single institution’s empty seats are more, since they include everyone who went elsewhere.

The time

“I rebuild the same file every Thursday.”

Those hours exist. They are simply written down nowhere.

Measured elsewhere

10,000 h

a year, recovered by one university after automating twenty-two administrative processes, admissions among them.

University of MelbourneCase study published by the vendor.

The error

“Three files. Three numbers.”

The decision was taken on the wrong one. You find out when it is too late to take it back.

Measured elsewhere

2.8%

of hand-entered fields contained an error: from 0.5% to 6.4% depending on the field.

Peer-reviewed study (421 records, 5,148 data points)Clinical records, outside education.

The document

“The certificate was retyped by hand.”

A typing mistake becomes an official document signed by your institution. It goes out, and it travels.

Measured elsewhere

Same day

instead of two to four weeks, to produce an official letter: five thousand requests a year.

University of MichiganOne document type. Case study published by the vendor.

The ceiling

“We can’t open another class.”

Not for lack of demand. For lack of hands to run it. Your growth is capped by your administration, not by your market.

Measured elsewhere

23,000 h

a year, saved by one university on repetitive tasks: student transcripts, purchasing, compliance.

University of AucklandMostly finance processes. Case study published by the vendor.

The lost link

“We have lost half of our graduates.”

Not gone: unreachable. A whole year group you can no longer call on: not for a testimonial, not for a gift, not to recruit the next applicant.

Measured elsewhere

55% → 85%

of alumni reachable by email, after eighteen months of work on processes and system integration.

University of San Francisco, 125,651 alumni (WSCUC accreditation report, 2023)One institution, self-reported.

The reputation

“That family has been waiting three weeks for an answer.”

They talk about it. To other families. For an institution that chooses its students, this is the most expensive cost, and the only one you do not get back.

Measured elsewhere

75–80%

of prospective students are disappointed when the first reply takes more than twenty-four hours.

RNL, 2022 Online Student Recruitment Report (1,609 prospective students surveyed)US population, fully online programmes.

None of these costs is inevitable. But none of them gets fixed while it stays invisible.

What GEERD changes

Start with what is costing you time.

01

Fill your seats

Admissions

Stop losing applicants between “interested” and “enrolled”.

Follow every application, every follow-up, every interview and every payment through to enrolment.

One number. No more applicants forgotten in someone’s phone.

02

Prepare the new academic year

Intake

Know who is coming back. Before September.

Next year’s classes and cohorts, fees, documents and existing records brought up to date before term starts.

You know who is coming back. In June, not in September.

03

Simplify academic life

Academic

Less copy and paste. More time with the people you teach.

Courses, timetables, attendance, grades, grade reports and documents stay connected to the same record.

A correct grade report, first time.

04

Track payments

Finance

“Has he paid?”: the answer is on the screen.

Authorised staff see the right status without searching through several files or calling the finance office.

The status is read, not asked for.

05

Run your institution

Leadership

Leadership should not have to become a search engine.

Each team has in front of it what concerns it, and leadership reads the same figures without having to ask.

The numbers reach leadership. It no longer goes looking for them.

06

Keep in touch after graduation

Alumni

The student journey does not end at graduation.

Contact details that stay current, a community that is alive, and graduates you can actually call on: for a testimonial, a job offer, a donation.

A network you can reach. Not a list of dead email addresses.

Every solution starts with a free diagnostic of the situation as it stands with you.

With what

Three moments. One record.

GEERD stays with each pupil or student before enrolment, throughout their studies and long after graduation.

BrightStep

Before enrolment

Admissions that move forward.

Applications land in one place, follow-ups go out on their own, and your team knows where every applicant stands.

Before / after

From mess to clarity.

BEFORE

SpreadsheetWhatsAppEmailPDFFormsPaperWe have always done it this way.

AFTER

  • One number, read the same way by everyone
  • Every applicant has an owner
  • A correct document, first time
  • A family that does not have to chase
  • Leadership that no longer has to search
There is another way.

How we work

We start by understanding how you work. The software comes after.

GEERD does not ask you to adapt your institution to a piece of software.

Three phases, always in this order.

01

DiagnosticFree

Half a day with leadership and the person who keeps the process running day to day. A written report, a recommendation.

02

Set-up

Together we define the stages, configure the platform on your process, migrate your data and train your teams on their own cases.

03

Support

We stay present through the first real cycle: a weekly session, one named contact, an answer within 48 hours. From then on, your team runs it without us.

The subject least talked about. The one that matters most.

Your institution’s data deserves better than a promise.

HOSTING

Data hosted in France, with OVHcloud (Gravelines and Roubaix)

100% European Union for the platforms’ data, with no transfer to a third country.

COMPLIANCE

GDPR and law 09-08 / CNDP

Data processing agreement on request.

CONTINUITY

Eight years in operation, continuous monitoring

Daily encrypted backups, multi-region failover.

ACCESS

Named accounts, roles per team

Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 sign-in, roles per team.

TRACEABILITY

Audit trail on admissions and payments

Every change attributed and timestamped, on BrightStep and on payment operations.

DOCUMENTS

Security questionnaire and security documentation on request

Compliance requests answered within five working days.

SECURITY

Encryption in transit and at rest

Encrypted backups, tested restoration.

SUPPORT

Human support, from people who know your institution

An answer within 48 hours.

Tell us what is costing you time.

No need to prepare a specification.

Just tell us how your institution works today, and what you would like to make simpler.

We start by listening.
