Level Scaffolding · Scaffolding
A private quoting and invoicing app for a Christchurch scaffolding business, built from the owner’s real quotes and invoices, that produces paperwork on his own letterhead.
The problem
The owner produced every quote and invoice himself, and his pricing is specific to scaffolding, worked out his way over years.
Off-the-shelf software prices things the way the software thinks, not the way he does.
What we built
- A private web app, behind a login, that prices jobs from his own rate card, the way he already prices.
- Quotes, invoices and monthly statements as PDFs on his letterhead, ready to email.
- Fixed-price jobs, split invoicing that can never exceed the quote, monthly equipment rentals and safety-check invoices.
- A home screen of today’s work, where every document is at (sent, accepted, paid, overdue), and checks before anything is finalised.
- Raise again: any past job starts a new one pre-filled, and this month’s rental opens with everything already filled in.
The result
To the cent
the app reproduced his real August rentals, safety checks, an invoice and a six-invoice statement, and automated tests keep checking it against his real invoices
