Carry each job from the tape on the wall to the installation photo.

A signage company works from site measurements, per square foot rates and crews on ladders at many branch addresses. Flex, ACP, frontlit and backlit boards and acrylic letters all price differently. One misread figure means remaking the board. The signage software carries a job from the tape on the wall to the installation photo, so the workshop cuts the right size and the invoice matches what went up.

At a glance

One order from a retail chain can mean forty boards at forty addresses, each with its own size, landlord and permission letter. Excel cracks around the tenth, and by the fifteenth the office is ringing crews.

Job tracking for board makers runs from the survey form to the completion photo, built around your rate card.

How the work runs today

A client asks for a new fascia, a frontlit glow sign, a sunboard standee or acrylic letters for a lobby. Someone goes to site with a tape, and measurements and photos come back on WhatsApp. The office prices the job per square foot, with ACP, flex, vinyl, LED modules and labour on separate rates.

Artwork goes for approval on a mock-up, usually more than once. The workshop gets a job card and material is issued, while routing or laser cutting may go out to an outside fabricator. The crew books scaffolding. Afterwards someone must collect the completion photo and sign-off before the tax invoice goes out, and for a branch rollout every step repeats at every store.

Where it breaks

What goes wrong for signage companies without a proper system.

The board does not fit

Sizes come as a photo of a paper sketch, one figure is read as eight where it said three, and a sheet of ACP becomes scrap. Time and material are lost.

Rollouts lose their thread

A client asks which of their thirty stores are live, and the answer takes a day of phone calls.

Stock never matches the register

ACP sheets, vinyl rolls and LED modules go out for one job and get used on another, and offcuts are never booked back. A rush order then stops for want of one module.

Billing waits on a photo

Crews forget to send the installed-board picture, and a week of billing waits behind it. Cash is delayed.

What the software does

What we would build for signage companies.

Named the way your team already talks about the work. We start with whichever part the audit shows is costing you most.

Site measurement sheet

Let the surveyor record sizes, mounting surface, power point and photos on a phone form tied to the job, so the workshop cuts from a record.

Rate card and per square foot quotation

Hold separate rates for flex, ACP, acrylic letters, LED modules and installation, and build the quote from them with the mock-up attached for approval.

Workshop job card

List what to fabricate, which material was issued and who is on it, with a status the office can see.

Outside job work

Record routing, laser cutting or large format printing given to an outside fabricator against the job, with what it cost you.

Installation photo and sign-off

Let the crew add the installed photo and the client’s sign-off from the site, before they leave.

Branch rollout tracker

Show every location in an order in one view, marked measured, approved, fabricated, installed and billed.

Repair and service calls

Log a dead LED module or a board loosened by rain against the original job, so the crew is told what was fitted there.

How it works

How the work runs from Bengaluru for your city.

  1. 1

    The audit, by call

    A screen-share and a look at the sheets, accounting reports and WhatsApp groups your team uses. No travel needed.

  2. 2

    A written proposal

    Scope, what we build first and the cost, agreed in writing before anything starts.

  3. 3

    Build in short rounds

    Working screens shared every few weeks. Your team tests them from your own office.

  4. 4

    Go-live, in person when it helps

    For data migration and training we can come to your city. Travel is agreed in advance.

  5. 5

    Support online

    Fixes, changes and hosting handled remotely by the same team that built it.

Common questions

Questions signage companies ask before they call.

Do you make the artwork?

No. Your designer or studio does that, as now. Each mock-up version sits on the job with the date it was approved and who approved it.

Can invoices go across to our accountant’s software?

Not built in. A file of invoices and receipts that your accountant imports into their package is arranged at set-up, under a separate quote. Invoices are raised here once the completion photo is in.

Will the fitting crew use a phone on site?

They will if it asks for very little: a photo, a tick, a signature. It is designed for someone on a ladder in the sun, not for the office.

Can it track landlord permission per branch?

Yes. Each location carries its permission status and documents, so a crew is not sent to a wall that cannot take a board yet. Getting the permission is still your job.

How is a sign maker’s quotation worked out?

Branches served, crews on ladders, workshop staff and outside fabricators in the chain set it. A branch rollout tracker and photo sign-off are separate modules. A recent site measurement is keyed in and priced during a demonstration. The quotation then lists modules one by one.

What does a sign company bring before starting?

A site measurement sheet, your rate card per square foot, a workshop job card, an installation photo and a branch rollout list. Ask whoever estimates jobs and one crew lead to react to the trial screens. Plain opinions help.

Do job and rollout records remain ours if we leave?

Yes. Measurements, quotes, job cards and photos remain the company’s, with the source. Exports in common formats come on request. Those who wrote the software keep it healthy. We host as standard.

What happens after I share my requirements?

An engineer reads what you send and replies within one business day. We then look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough. You get a short written summary ordered by priority, with no obligation to hire us afterwards.

How much will the software cost?

We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. That first review settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
