Sapere were approached by North East based Castle Construction to help them manage all their paper based processes for managing contracts, orders and invoicing with the creation of a bespoke web application CRM.
Due to year on year growth the company felt that the manual processes and the paperwork in the businesses were becoming ever more time consuming and problematic.
Problem
The system was developed in part to help the company manage individual jobs, from the ordering of materials through to assigning labour to the work right through to generating and invoicing the client. Before the system was developed the process was very time consuming, invoices were missed, materials weren’t tracked or sometimes missed off invoices. The more work the company won the more staff that were needed, the bespoke software solution has removed the need for more administration staff as the system now automates most of the process.
Solution
Sapere designed and developed a bespoke workflow driven secure app to manage the day to day workings of the business.
Construction Track is a system which produces and manages quotations and invoices. The system allows for “mass” invoices to be inserted into it via a CSV Import. This process saves the company several hours of manually data entry as well as reducing the risk of data input error.
The system also allows the management at Castle Construction to see total profit and loss between a specific set of dates and which jobs are the most profitable.
