On the service side of things, we talk alot about how quoting is a value. How is quoting a value driver? 

  1. Quotes are typically tracked and documented on excel spreadsheets
     

  2. The top 10-15% of quotes are the ones that are tracked the most for completion

  3. The bottom 15-20% usually get lost in the shuffle or don’t even get started

How can we help with invoicing?

Shops have told us this can take 10 minutes on longer jobs. With our AI tool it can clean up those tech notes and fully save you all that time.

    • Accurate labor forecasting

    • Real-time cost management

    • Increased profitability and reduced waste

What is the benefit or value of tasks?

If they aren’t in the system adding them to every job or having them done outside the system on paper makes the offices job hard as it adds a layer of work when creating the job by adding it then or when invoicing as they’d have to upload each file to be able to attach it to an invoice. How are you creating your tasking lists today?

How does tracking change orders help an organization?

If you aren’t billing for changed orders that’s a major way for revenue to slip. We are seeing more GC’s put rules in place that require change orders to be billed within 60 days or they won’t pay for them.

Explain why we can help with equipment tracking.

  • Track equipment cost, usage, and location across multiple jobsites.

  • Prevent loss, underutilization, and unbilled usage.

  • Manage equipment transfers between sites and determine when to buy vs. rent based on utilization data.

  • Outcomes:


    • Lower rental and replacement costs

    • Better accountability for assets

    • Improved job profitability

What is the benefit or value of a gated workflow for technicians? 


The office on the phone tracking missing info down leads to wasted time. It also leads to them getting fewer invoices out and delaying invoices. Oftentimes we hear that even after tracking it down techs can’t remember what they use so folks still aren’t billing for everything they should which can lose hundreds of dollars on a single work order.

You are talking to an owner, who says they have no visibility into how much money they are making on a project or not. Its beyond frustrating. What part of the product would you show them:

A. Dispatch Board

B. Forecasting Tab

C. the Dashboard

Depending on the situation, B and C

300

Explain the Value of this Feature:

The value of the dispatch board is allow service managers to get an overhead view of their technicians, what projecst they are on, and even get live statuses of where they are at. 


Most of the time, this is managed on paper or in a gcal.

How can we provide value with tracking documents?

If you don’t have good documentation you will lose. In BuildOps we give you the paper trail you need as we can show when your documents were sent and responded too. This is huge as legal battles can easily put your business under.

How can we help contractors manage their maintenance agreements

Here’s how Maintenance becomes more reliable and generates more ROI:

  1. Additional revenue via recommendations workflow/pull through work

  2. Being able to track the margin in real time as the maintenance agreement is live

  3. Not missing maintenances. Sometimes shops miss a maintenance, reschedule it out.

Why is reporting so valuable?


Without real data decisions are made on gut. We want to arm you with key reports best in class shops are tracking such as: showing customers how much they have paid on service for their equipment, how efficient techs are, what techs are creating the most pull through work, how profitable our jobs are, how profitable service agreements are and more.

Explain why the jobs page is so helpful and valuable.


A lot of time gets wasted manually tracking job “next steps” in manual ways and the big concern is that with those manual processes jobs get lost. We talk to folks all the time who totally lose jobs, never invoice them or get called up by customers “hey did you get that quote out?” OR “hey we never got an invoice” and that affects customer experience which matters a ton!
