Job management software for builders.
figrd works out your real hourly rate as you build the quote, then sends the follow-ups and invoice reminders for you.
Quote from your price book and the hours you expect, keep SWMS on the job, and on Pro invoice a job in stages.
From quote to paid
Core and Pro both cover the work from the first quote to the paid invoice, with unlimited users. Core is A$39 a month and Pro is A$99. Core includes:
- Quote with guidance from your own costs
- Give customers up to 3 quote options
- Compare quoted and recorded job costs
- Schedule jobs, track time and add photos
- Invoice from the quote and sync with Xero
- Automatic follow-ups and invoice reminders
- SWMS and JSA safety forms, signed on site
Safety paperwork for construction work
SWMS and JSA forms are on every plan, filled in and signed on the phone and emailed as branded PDFs. The SWMS form uses your state's list of high risk construction work: 18 activities under the national model law, 19 in Victoria and 19 in the ACT.
Jobs that run in stages
Pro splits a job into phases and invoices each milestone, so a long job can be invoiced as each stage finishes. Pro also includes recurring jobs and shared job templates.
