Construction & trades

Construction and trade businesses have many details to manage. A customer asks about a job. A site visit may need to be booked, a quote sent, materials planned, tasks assigned, employees or subcontractors coordinated and finances tracked.

If everything lives in the phone, inbox, calendar and a spreadsheet, it becomes hard to stay on top of things. Foundbase gives construction and trade businesses one place for customers, quotes, jobs, tasks, agreements and budgets.

That makes it easier to manage work from first contact to completed delivery.

01

Track enquiries and quotes

With Foundbase, new customer inquiries can be registered in CRM so they do not disappear in the inbox. You can track leads, quotes and next follow-up so potential jobs are handled professionally.

That gives a better view of which jobs are coming up, which quotes are awaiting a response and who needs to be contacted again.

02

Plan jobs as projects

When a quote is accepted, the job can be planned as a project. Tasks can be assigned to employees, deadlines set and ownership made clear.

That works for both smaller service jobs and larger projects where several people, materials and deadlines need coordinating.

03

Agreements, contracts and finances

Foundbase can be used to gather quotes, job agreements, contracts and documents, linked to the customer or project. The budget module can help create visibility into materials, expected costs, revenue and cash flow.

That makes it easier to spot when a job is drifting financially and when follow-up is needed.

04

Collaboration between office and field teams

Many trade businesses have a natural gap between office and field work. Foundbase can help make status, ownership and deadlines more visible so handoffs become more precise.

That means less chasing for information and fewer misunderstandings about what was agreed with the customer.
