East Tennessee business technology studio
865 Works helps established and growing businesses replace manual processes, disconnected software, and unclear data with practical technology that improves execution.
Four connected practices
We work across the full problem—not just one application, one dashboard, or one department.
Use AI and automation where they produce a measurable operational advantage—not because they are fashionable.
Replace workarounds and generic tools with focused applications designed around how your team actually operates.
Turn scattered business data into clear reporting, reliable metrics, forecasts, and management visibility.
Redesign the process before digitizing it, so technology supports a better operation instead of preserving dysfunction.
Who we serve
865 Works is designed for leaders who know their business can run better but do not want to assemble a full internal technology department to make it happen.
You have a proven company, experienced people, and years of accumulated workarounds. We help modernize the operating system without disrupting what already works.
Your team, locations, customers, or transaction volume are outgrowing current tools. We build the infrastructure needed for the next stage.
Representative solutions
Our work combines business diagnosis, process redesign, software development, data, testing, and implementation.
A custom operating platform connects sales forecasts, production requirements, equipment capacity, leftovers, daily execution, and management reporting.
A mobile-first system organizes scheduling, field reports, time tracking, customer records, document generation, and administrative review.
A customer-facing system guides inquiries, recommends options, estimates pricing, checks availability, and moves qualified prospects toward booking.
Client and project details are generalized to protect confidential operating information.
How we work
We begin with the operation, identify the highest-value constraint, and build in controlled stages.
Map the current process, systems, data, bottlenecks, risks, and desired outcomes.
Rank opportunities by impact, feasibility, cost, adoption difficulty, and speed to value.
Design, develop, test, and deploy the smallest complete solution that materially improves the operation.
Measure performance, gather user feedback, correct weaknesses, and expand what works.
Founder-led execution
865 Works was founded by Archer Bagley, an engineer, data and systems professional, sales leader, and former multi-unit restaurant owner and operator.
That combination matters. Technology projects fail when they are disconnected from frontline work, financial reality, customer behavior, and management accountability. 865 Works approaches every engagement as both an operating problem and a systems problem.
Start with the right problem
Request a business assessment. We will review the constraint, determine whether 865 Works can help, and identify the most practical next step.
