Industries · Construction & Trades

IT that keeps up with you on site.

Builders, electricians, plumbers and other trades run their business from a van, not a desk — your IT needs to work the same way.

Where it shows up

Common pressure points

Quoting & invoicing on the go

Chasing paperwork after a long day on site is nobody's idea of a good evening.

Being found & booked

Getting found by the right customers without needing a marketing team.

Certificates & compliance paperwork

Insurance, qualifications and compliance documents that need to be found in seconds, not searched for.

Patchy connectivity on site

Systems that need to work from a job site with average signal, not just from an office.

Security first

Customer data and payment details handled properly, without slowing a job down.

On-Site Readiness Score

Five honest yes/no questions covering the basics that keep a trade business running smoothly — a quick gut-check, not a full audit.

1. Can you send a quote or invoice from your phone, without waiting until you're back at a desk?

2. Are your certificates, insurance and compliance documents stored somewhere you can find them in seconds?

3. Does your website make it easy for a customer to see your work and get in touch?

4. Are review requests sent automatically after a job, rather than relying on you to remember?

5. Is your phone protected (passcode, find-my-device) so losing it wouldn't put customer data at risk?
