Our process

The process behind every review‑ready file.

Important transactions depend on a complete record, verified details, and controlled decisions. Scellus designs that process and runs it.

Assemble.

Get the record in order.

Transactions depend on information from different people, organisations, and systems. Scellus brings it together against agreed requirements and follows through until it is complete.

You receive

An organised, traceable record, and a clear view of what is outstanding and who owes it.

  1. Collect
  2. Read
  3. Chase

02 / 03

Verify.

Find the problem before it reaches your desk.

Scellus checks the record against agreed requirements, reconciles what should match, and gives every gap an owner and a path to resolution. Anything that needs legal, financial, regulatory, or commercial judgment goes to your authorised reviewers.

You receive

Verification results, a gap register with owners and status, and a traceable resolution history.

Ready for sign-off.

Scellus turns the record into a review-ready file: the documents, the verification results, the decisions, and any open items, clearly disclosed. Outputs that need approval stay under your review and release controls.

You receive

Review-ready files, verification summaries, decision records, and status reporting across matters.

The six Blocks

Six capabilities. One accountable process.

Every matter runs on the same six Blocks. Each one does a defined job, and each one knows when to hand the work to your team.

  1. 01Assemble

    Collect.

    Gathers documents and information from each party and system into one controlled, traceable record.

    Comes to your team when

    A document is missing, unreadable, duplicated, or needs confirmation from the original source.

  2. 02Assemble

    Read.

    Extracts names, dates, amounts, and references from source documents into a structured, traceable record.

    Comes to your team when

    A value is unclear, a reference is incomplete, or details differ between source documents.

  3. 03Verify

    Verify.

    Checks the structured record against agreed requirements, reconciles key details, and flags anything that fails.

    Comes to your team when

    A check fails, a required detail is missing, or a figure does not reconcile.

  4. 04Assemble • Verify

    Chase.

    Follows up on outstanding documents, approvals, and responses, keeping each request with a named owner.

    Comes to your team when

    A request is sensitive, needs escalation, or depends on a relationship your team owns.

  5. 05Verify • Deliver

    Review.

    Presents open items with their sources, requirements, and context so your team can decide.

    Comes to your team when

    An item needs a decision. A qualified person on your team chooses what happens next.

  6. 06Deliver

    Deliver.

    Prepares the agreed documents, checks, and decision records for review and release under your controls.

    Comes to your team when

    An output needs sign-off, an open item needs acceptance, or a release needs your approval.

Operating model

  1. 01

    We design it.

    Design the process.

    Scellus builds the process around your systems and requirements, defining what complete means, which checks apply, how gaps are routed and escalated, where review happens, and how progress is reported.

  2. 02

    We operate it.

    Run the process.

    Scellus runs the process within an agreed scope, with named owners, clear review points, defined service levels, and acceptance criteria. Your team can see exactly what Scellus owns and answers for.

  3. 03

    You oversee it.

    Track the progress.

    Your team sees what is ready, what is blocked, who needs to act, and which deadlines need attention. Track progress on each matter and across the portfolio, with open items clearly reported.

How we handle your data is set out in data handling.

Your team’s role

Checking is ours. Judgment stays with you.

Scellus identifies gaps, assigns each one an owner, and prepares the information for review. A qualified person on your team makes the decision. Your team authorises the file’s release.

Traceability

Every gap leaves a record.

Source, check, gap, decision, output. This is the record for the matter in Fig. 01, as it appears in the review-ready file.

Fig. 02Record ⬝ CV-2606
  1. Source

    The SPA, received from the vendor’s solicitors on Sep 18, and Lender A’s letter of offer, received on Oct 1. Both are filed in the matter record.

  2. Check

    Scellus compared the purchaser’s name on the letter of offer with the SPA and the identity document. The SPA and identity document read “Nurul Aisyah binti Kamal”. The letter of offer reads “Nurul Aishah binti Kamal”.

  3. Gap

    Gap GR-14 opened on Oct 1 and assigned to your team for an instruction. Under the example’s acceptance criteria, names must match across the SPA, loan documents and identity document, so the gap blocks Ready for review.

  4. Decision

    Question put to the firm’s lawyer on Oct 1: ask Lender A to reissue the letter of offer, or proceed another way? The lawyer’s instruction, recorded on Oct 2: ask Lender A to reissue it with the name as it appears in the SPA.

  5. Output

    Scellus followed through with Lender A. The corrected letter of offer arrived on Oct 7 and the re-check matched. Gap GR-14 closed, and the matter moved to Ready for review on Oct 8. The review-ready file includes the gap record and the lawyer’s instruction.
