Job Costing Software for Double Glazing Companies

AdminBase provides job costing software that makes managing your double glazing business quick and simple. It can be tricky to work out just how much you should be paying your surveyors, fitters and service engineers. Not only that, but organising payment through paper invoicing can be tricky to organise.

Because of this, you could end up losing track of the overall cost of any job. That means that you have to spend more time finding paper records to get the right quote. While you’re doing all that, though, you could be missing out on converting leads for your double glazing company. As a result, not having the cost to hand can cost your company even more.

But, with AdminBase, you can control every part of the job costing process. You can place orders with suppliers, take notes from surveyors and service engineers, and get quotes from freelance fitters with ease. Also, it’s all digital, meaning you can manage your job costing process without a single sheet of paper in sight.

And, using our CRM software, you can do so much more than that. You can link your invoices directly into major accounting software, helping you take control over your finances. You can get dedicated apps for your surveyors, fitters and service engineers. And you can integrate your price book within AdminBase, too, helping you control every aspect of the cost of your business.

Job Costing Process for Double Glazing Companies

The job costing process for double glazing companies can be complicated. That’s because there are so many things that can affect it. When one of your customers orders a window, you have to order the design, get a quote from fitters, and work with surveyors and service engineers to ensure the installation is smooth and compliant.

However, all of these things can add to the overall cost. It’s hard to keep track of how much, too, as you can get separate reports from surveyors, fitters and service engineers. As a result, it’s easy to lose track of a figure if you manage your business with paper reports and invoices.

AdminBase makes organising that part of the job process simple and straightforward. Our system has dedicated apps for surveyors, fitters and service engineers. That way, they can post their reports, quotes and invoices to you digitally. And, with it organised under the relevant lead automatically, you can work out the costs effortlessly.

Integrated Job Costing Process

Another benefit of AdminBase is that it can integrate the job costing process with the rest of your business. AdminBase can handle everything for you digitally, doing away with paper for job costing. That means you could get rid of your price book – instead, you could have a digitally integrated version that your sales team has full access to.

When they get a lead, they can visit a customer and find the prices they ask about in seconds. Not only that, but it’s integrated into a dedicated sales app, meaning they can search for only the prices they need. That way, they won’t spend minutes flicking through a book, and they won’t be able to up their commission craftily.

With an integrated price book, you can respond more quickly to other parts of the job costing process, too. You can create orders digitally with suppliers, and AdminBase automatically creates a record of the transaction. When it comes to the payment process, you can find the costs at the touch of a button.

Better Invoicing for the Job Costing Process

Invoicing can be a tricky part of the job costing process if you use paper. Paper invoices take longer to process and are harder to organise. As a result, it’s easy to lose track of an invoice here and there. That could mean you end up quoting an inaccurate price. Also, you could lose a record of something that you might need for an audit.

But, with AdminBase, invoicing becomes fully digital. As part of our service, your surveyors, fitters and service engineers can create invoices within AdminBase that go straight into the system. The CRM organises them by lead, making them easy to find. And, with unlimited storage, you’ll never lose an invoice.

Additionally, AdminBase links directly to major accounting software, such as Quickbooks, Xero and more. Due to this, organising tax is simple and straightforward. You’ll have total control with AdminBase, then, of every element of the job costing process. With dedicated apps, integrated pricing and digitised processes, you can manage your business brilliantly.
