What this says
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Daniel Okafor sent formal renewal notice for the Enterprise subscription at £114k a year, ending 27 Feb 2026. Fiona Metcalfe wants a usage case first, will not renew without one, and will look at price only at renewal.
Ask: Fiona asked for the renewal figure in pounds, whether it includes anything beyond the subscription, and a usage case before anything is agreed.
Customer view: she must explain the cost to the board and holds price until renewal. Daniel committed to a usage case within a couple of weeks, and Lewis Kerr will confirm the figure with VAT.
Next: the thread does not show the renewal outcome.

- Daniel Okafor 28 Nov 2025 11:39Dear Fiona, I hope you are well. Just to close the loop on the contract calendar: your Enterprise subscription with BG-Demo runs to 27 Feb 2026, and this note is our formal renewal notice, sent in good time so that nothing has to be rushed at the end. The subscription is currently contracted at £113,500 a year, covering 160 licensed users. We have opened the renewal on our side with a target of 3 Feb 2026 to have the paperwork agreed, which leaves a comfortable gap before the end date. Before we talk about terms, I would like to put together a short usage case for you, so that you and the board can see what Strensall Merchants has had from B-Viz over the year. Usage across the branch, trade credit and key account teams has grown nicely this quarter, and I think the picture will speak for itself. I will include who is asking the most questions and where the teams are getting the most from it. Lewis is copied and will pick up the commercial side when you are ready. How is the team finding it day to day? I would be glad to hear anything you would like the usage case to cover. Best wishes, Daniel Daniel Okafor Customer Success Manager, BG-Demo
- Fiona Metcalfe 1 Dec 2025 11:41Daniel, Thank you for the notice, much appreciated. Two things. First, please confirm the renewal figure in pounds, and whether it includes anything beyond the subscription itself. Second, yes to the usage case. I will want it before anything is agreed. I do not renew without one, and I need to be able to explain the cost to the board. We will look at price at renewal, not before. Fiona Metcalfe
- Daniel Okafor 2 Dec 2025 16:36Dear Fiona, Thank you, that is very clear. On the figure: the contracted annual subscription today is £113,500, for 160 licensed users. I do not want to guess at what the renewal paperwork will say beyond that, so Lewis will confirm the renewal figure in pounds, with the VAT position set out, once you are ready to look at it. I will leave the pricing conversation with him and with you, as you suggest. I will come back to you with the usage case in the next couple of weeks. It will cover how many people are using B-Viz, what they are asking it, and how that has moved compared with the previous quarter. I will keep it to a page or two, in plain language. If there is a particular team you would like me to focus on, do tell me. Best wishes, Daniel
