Bilt Base

The job is one thread.
Your software should follow it.

From the phone ringing to the final payment: leads, site visits, proposals, work orders, materials, change orders and the money - one record, one place, with a phone app the crew actually uses.

The demo is a full seeded construction company - click anything, nothing saves.

The phone rings. Nothing gets lost.

The call is filed in ninety seconds - name, address, what they want, the photos they email in - and a follow-up sets itself, so the enquiry cannot quietly go cold.

Walk the roof, camera first.

Check in on site, photograph each point of damage, describe what you are still looking at, check out. The report files itself and a supervisor prices every finding into an estimate - nobody drives back for a second look.

Priced honestly. Signed on their phone.

Estimates carry cost and margin together - a line with cost but no price refuses to go out. The proposal is signed through a link, and the moment it is signed the price locks.

The crew sees everything. So does the budget.

Work orders carry the tasks, the arrival window, the client's own photos and the materials. Purchase orders commit money the day they go out - so a job cannot look healthy right up until the bills land.

Changes happen. They get signed, not argued.

A change order prices the surprise - materials, labour, schedule - and goes to the client for a signature before the work happens. Cost is never hidden; scope is never a memory.

Finished, invoiced, paid - and it all adds up.

Every dollar the job cost was counted exactly once - labour, vendor bills, materials, expenses - so the final margin is a fact, not a feeling. Three exports hand the books to QuickBooks.

Fewer mistakes

The software argues back, so the job doesn't have to.

Most construction losses are quiet: a line priced at zero, a receipt that never reached the job, two people editing the same number. Bilt Base is built to refuse the quiet mistakes.

No silent zeros

An estimate line with cost but no price refuses to leave the building - the client is never accidentally quoted nothing for something.

Prices lock when they're promised

Sent means locked. Reopening a sent price takes a named permission and leaves a record of who, what and when.

Nobody approves their own expense

A receipt is a claim until somebody else says yes - so nobody can move a job's margin by filing their own lunch.

One ledger, one truth

Labour, vendor bills, materials and expenses each land exactly once. Cost to date is arithmetic, not archaeology.

Follow-ups that follow up

Quiet proposals, due payments and expiring warranties raise themselves - and keep raising until someone acts.

An audit trail with names on it

Who changed what, and when - every action in the company, searchable by person, record and words.

More done per day

Streamlined isn't a feature. It's the absence of re-typing.

One record, start to finish

The lead becomes the client, the property, the project and the photos - in one action. Nothing is copied by hand, so nothing is copied wrong.

A phone app with two doors

The crew door: your jobs, visits, photos, hours. The office door: money, approvals, the pipeline - while the coffee is still warm. Photos taken with no signal queue and send themselves.

Your old system imports itself

Ten thousand contacts at two thousand firms, previewed before a single row is written, idempotent if you run it twice.

QuickBooks gets three clean exports

Payables, receivables and job cost by code, each with account mappings - the books agree without anyone re-keying.

AI where it earns its place

An analyst's note on any project and an inspector's read of any photograph - flagged as AI-written, metered, budgeted, and off until you add a key.

Dashboards that name the problem

The funnel with its leaks, hand-off times as medians, and a risk board where every flag is a sentence with a number in it.

Where the money stops leaking

Cost control is mostly just seeing it coming.

Committed, not surprised

Purchase orders commit money the day they issue. The margin marker moves before the bills arrive, not after.

Changes are revenue, not friction

Priced, signed, and folded into the contract - the work you already did for free is the leak this closes.

Every dollar has a name

Vendor bills matched line by line to their orders; a bill over its order is flagged, never waved through.

Pricing

One price for the company, not a price per person.

Charging by the seat quietly decides who gets to use your software. Foremen get left off, the office re-types what the crew wrote on paper, and the record everybody was supposed to share has holes in it. So it is one flat monthly figure, whatever the size of the crew.

  • Every person gets a login. Office, project managers, foremen, the crew. Taking somebody on does not change the bill.
  • Every feature, now and later. Leads and estimates through proposals, work orders, change orders, purchasing, invoices and job costing - and whatever is added while you are a customer.
  • The iPhone app for the field, with photographs, hours and site visits that work with a bad signal and send themselves when it comes back.
  • Hosting, security, monitoring and nightly off-site backups, with a restore procedure that has actually been run.
  • Your data leaves with you. A full export whenever you ask for it. That is a term in the contract, not a promise on a website.
  • Support from the person who builds it. Not a queue.
A flat monthly fee, and one setup fee to move your history across.

What it comes to depends on the size of your book and how much history needs migrating, so we would rather work it out with you than print a number that turns out to be wrong.

Migration of your clients, jobs, contacts and history is quoted once, up front. A handful of things sit outside the subscription because not everybody wants them - an accounting connection, a client portal, on-site training - and those are priced when you ask for them, never added quietly.
