Construction & trades

Get quotes out the door without losing your nights.

You didn't start the business to write quotes at 10pm or chase invoices on a Sunday. We take the repeat office work off you and your team, so the work you win gets scheduled, built and paid faster.

Builders, trades, electrical, civil and service contractors

You'll recognise this

Sound familiar?

Quotes get written after hours

Draft quotes are built from your price book and past jobs. You check and send, instead of starting from a blank page at night.

Weekend enquiries wait until Monday

Every enquiry gets a reply in minutes, with the questions you would ask, so it is still yours on Monday.

Won jobs are typed in twice

Accepted quotes flow into your job system and accounts on their own.

You're about to advertise for admin

The repeat work behind the job ad comes off the list first. Then you decide whether you still need the hire.

First jobs

What we take off your team first.

  • Enquiry follow-up

    Every enquiry answered within minutes, with the questions you need answered before you quote.

  • Quote turnaround

    Draft quotes built from your price book and past jobs, for you to check and send.

  • Chasing quiet quotes

    Polite, timed follow-ups on every quote, so nothing dies because nobody called back.

  • Won job to schedule

    Accepted quotes flow into your job system and accounts without re-keying.

  • Crew and client updates

    Start dates, changes and completion notices sent automatically.

  • Invoices out on completion

    Invoices raised when the job closes, and reminders sent when they age.

Electrical contractors

Service calls booked and confirmed, switchboard and fit-off quotes drafted from your rates, compliance paperwork prepared from the job record for your electrician to check and sign, and test-and-tag records kept in step with the customer file.

Imagine

Monday morning, done differently.

  5. 4:00 PM

    Finished jobs invoiced

    Today's completed work is invoiced before anyone leaves the yard.

This isn't science fiction. It's what happens when the repeat work runs itself.

The exact capabilities depend on your existing systems and the automations implemented.

After your Map

Someone from Maintain, inside your business.

Your Map shows what to take off your team first. Then a named lead from Maintain joins your business, part time or full time. They connect your systems, take the next job off your people and keep everything running. Your technology department, without having to build one.

  • Embedded Automation Lead: part time

    Businesses whose Map found a steady list of work to take off the team.

  • Embedded Automation Lead: full time

    Larger businesses, or Maps that found more work than a part-time lead can get through.

Pricing is set from your Map and walked through on the Playback call, before you commit to anything.
