Client Challenge
Where they were stuck
- Solar operators stitch together CRM, spreadsheets, WhatsApp and accounting tools.
- Every stage handover loses information.
- Cash-flow, warehouse and installation calendars are never in sync.

Project Overview
The engagement
An end-to-end operations platform designed specifically for solar installers — leads, site surveys, proposals, procurement, installation crews, commissioning and post-install O&M in one connected system.
Our Solution
What we built
- Unified pipeline from lead to installed system.
- Proposal builder with live BOM pricing and financing options.
- Warehouse and van-stock inventory with barcode scanning.
- Crew scheduling with route optimisation and photo evidence.

Results
The outcome they feel every day
Faster time-to-cash
Shorter handoffs mean faster commissioning and faster invoices.
Higher project margin
Live BOM pricing and inventory kill the two biggest sources of leakage.
Scales without chaos
Doubling installations no longer means doubling admin headcount.
"The vertical-specific ERP a solar installer actually deserves — nothing generic bolted on, everything built for the trade."
